This Surfhouse boutique hotel exterior project in Leucadia, Encinitas, California features a refreshed coastal façade that reflects the laid-back yet intentional spirit of Southern California surf culture. Located on Historic North Coast Highway 101 just one block from iconic local breaks, the design embraces its beach town context and invites visitors into a welcoming stay. The exterior palette and materials are grounded in subtle coastal tones and relaxed modern detailing, creating a sense of place both day and night. Thoughtful outdoor spaces, including upper and lower decks and communal areas, extend the hotel’s hospitality to the street and encourage guest interaction. Careful attention to scale and proportion ensures the building reads as approachable and integrated within the eclectic Leucadia streetscape. The result is an exterior that feels rooted in local character, captures the essence of surf-lifestyle living, and supports the hotel’s intent to be a gathering point for travelers and locals alike.
