Beach Currents | STYLE | August 2006
Dvine DCOR
It didn’t look like much, but Ed will tell you that, in the design world, it’s all about vision. In February, interior designer Ed Albers and former marketing exec Michael Cusumano bought a dilapidated beach cottage and transformed it into the Design Center of Rehoboth (DCOR). Reminiscent of an intimate guesthouse where customers wind through themed rooms (sunroom, bedroom, living room, dining room, kitchen), the center is both a full-service design firm (including landscape design) and a retail source for accessories and furniture. But fair warning: This is a pastel, wicker-free zone where clean, contemporary interior style rules. (We zeroed in on the three-foot-plus mirror with mahogany-hued, braided leather frame, and trophy arc bowl made from lacquered tiger wood). 112 Atlantic Ave., Rehoboth Beach. 302-227-9341 or http://www.rehobothinteriors.com. —K.B.
