2022 Idea House: Step Inside Our Coastal Carolina Home
A man cruises past in a top-down, vintage blue convertible—speedy enough to catch a breeze but not so fast that he can’t give a friendly wave. “That’s what it’s all about right there,” says Ed Mitchell, the president and a founding developer of River Dunes, a community just outside the fishing village of Oriental, North Carolina.

His grandfather, Ted Arison, established Carnival Cruise Line in 1972. “I loved being able to sit…
