"The beach cabin sits on a piece of land on Sunset Beach that has been in Mike's family for two generations. His parents purchased the land when it was still a waterfront beach resort that offered cabins, boat rentals, and fishing supplies to summer holidaymakers in the 1950s and 1960s," says interior designer Shannon Adamson, who worked on the project with architect Dave Pelletier.    When Mike's parents closed the resort in the 1970s, they built the post-and-beam cabin as their retirement retreat. Almost half a century later, he wanted to reimagine the mid-century home as an extension of his own house next door, which he shares with his partner Sandi. The idea was that the space would act as a guest house and another "addition" to the main house—for entertaining, working, and hosting friends and family.   Shannon and team gave the untouched cabin a modern makeover, while paying homage to its '70s history and protecting it from extreme weather events. Take a tour here.   Live well, —Sarah Yang, digital director This Pacific Northwest Beach Cabin Was Transformed to Withstand Extreme Weather Step inside the stylish space inspired by nature.
