Surf Shacks − An Eclectic Compilation of Creative Surfer's Homes from Coast to Coast and Overseas
Pickup currently not available
Surfing is a way of life. It's a life dominated by the waves and the tide, with a cosy place to pause in between. Surf Shacks showcases the creative homes of surfers, both on and off shore. Many homes can fall under the label of surf shack: New York City apartments, cabins nestled next to national parks or tiny Hawaiian huts, for example. Surfing communities overflow with creativity, innovation and interesting characters.
Surf Shacks takes a closer look at surfers' homes and artistic practices. Glimpses of record collections, strolls through backyard gardens and peeks into painters' studios provide insight into the lives of surfers both on and off the shore. Every space has a unique tale, from the remote Hawaiian nook of filmmaker Jess Bianchi, to the woodsy Japanese paradise of Hiromi Masubara, former CEO of the Surfrider Foundation in Japan, to the converted bus that Ryan Lovelace calls home and uses for transport. The moments that these vibrant personalities spend away from the swell and froth are captivating and nuanced.
Through anecdotes, photographs, illustrations, and conversations, Surf Shacks unveils the more personal side of surfing and its diverse cast of characters. Indoek is a surf-centric blog that celebrates a unique and independent flavour of wave-riding culture. It is a collective that creates and curates content around the characters, stories, art, organisations, music and brands that reflect the shared passions and pursuits of its diverse community.
