Here at Remodelista, we’ve long admired shiplap for the laid-back appeal it brings to seaside cottages—and, more and more, to interiors far from the sea, from New York wine bars to projects in London. Here’s a look at some of our favorite uses of shiplap from the Remodelista archives.

Above: Shiplap in a more traditional setting: on Cape Cod, the type of place where the weathertight cladding became popular, used as a headboard of sorts. See The Hamptons Come to Cape Cod: Salt House Inn in Provincetown . Above: The restaurateurs behind Portuguese wine bar Cervo’s preserved the shiplap ceiling left behind by the previous tenants (and paired it with glossy floor-to-ceiling tile walls).
