When building a custom home on LBI, the possibilities are endless. Thanks to the natural beauty and picturesque scenes of LBI, inspiration for your custom home is plentiful. Over our three decades as luxury custom home builders, our Stonehenge team has had the pleasure of creating gorgeous homes for our clients, and have often been inspired by the creativity of our homeowners. Here are some of our favorite interior features to incorporate for summer when building a custom home on LBI:
1. Natural Patterns and Materials
Surrounded by LBI’s natural beauty, inspiration for the design of your home can be drawn from our picturesque shoreline. Coastal paint tones, coral reef or palm tree leaf patterns, and incorporating natural wood into the design of your home not only ties in the landscape around you but also makes summer feel everlasting. Ruffled or textured accents inspired by the waves and warm, sandy neutrals bring the outdoors in. Organic materials like wood or stones are a great addition to not only the exterior of LBI homes, but also in places like the bathroom or as a kitchen backsplash or a butcherblock countertop. Our team of dedicated designers work with our homeowners so every inch of your custom home on LBI represents your aesthetic and creates a cohesive style throughout your home. By building a custom home on LBI, you’ll be able to enjoy every season here in our communities for years to come.
2. Bold and Summery Palettes
Based on 2025 interior design trends, bold and earthy tones are in style. While trends are helpful to draw inspiration from, we always recommend our clients follow their preferences and personal tastes when building a custom home on LBI. This is your home, and it’s important that it reflects your style and favorite aesthetics. And if you’re looking for inspiration, look no farther than the sunset on LBI, the different colors of the ocean throughout the day, and even the homes in your neighborhood. You never know where inspiration will be found, so be sure to keep your eyes open and remember to take notes or save inspiration on apps like Pinterest so our designers can help bring your vision to life.
3. Windows and Patio Doors
A big part of life here on LBI is indoor-outdoor living. The seamless transition from indoor entertaining spaces to outdoor spaces can not only help extend the footprint of your home, but also help create a place for you to connect with nature and make cherished memories. Oversized windows not only bring in natural light, but capture the stunning views of LBI from your home. When building a custom home on LBI, our team does our best to place windows and patio doors that give you the best views to enjoy every day. And with accordion doors that lead from a kitchen or living space out to a patio seating area, letting in the sea breeze has never been easier. Not to mention, hosting is that much easier with no barrier between the indoor and outdoor spaces, allowing for a seamless flow between spaces. Whether you’re still dreaming of building a custom home on LBI to enjoy for years to come or are ready to break ground, our team would love the opportunity to make your dreams a reality.
