A coastal themed interior is instantly calming and the pale colour palette leaves your space feeling full of light. The look is easily achievable by playing around with shades of blue and sandy hues mixed with white and pops of sea-green and turquoise.

The overall look evokes thoughts of summer days by the seaside but it can easily be transitioned to winter. Simply incorporate some darker, warmer shades in the form of soft furnishings and accessories.

The washed-blue grey panel style wall paper immediately establishes the Coastal theme in this area of our showroom. The weathered look creates a beach-hut vibe which is complemented by the sandy stripes of the Newport Grand Sofa. The Painting and the Shell Mirror bring the look together, whilst the Blue Shell Table Lamp gives the look a pop of colour.

Reclaimed wood

Reclaimed wood is another huge coastal trend, especially if the wood has a lightly distressed, weathered look. The Little Tree Furniture Whiteleaf range is made from reclaimed timbers that have been given a whitewash finish which looks as though the wood as been exposed to the seaside elements.

For a more understated look, the Mariner Bedroom is made from reclaimed wood which has a sun dried finish for a subtly sun kissed beach-side look.

Painted Pieces

For the dining room, painted furniture keeps your space feeling bright but homely at the same time. The Devon Living & Dining Range has a lightly distressed finish with wooden panelling which hints at the beach-hut-vibe in a more subtle way than the panel style wall paper we have in our showroom.

Accessories

Of course no Coastal interior is complete without seaside inspired accessories. This pair of Lighthouses will give any style of décor a nautical touch or these Lanterns can be used to fill your Coastal retreat with warming pools of light.

 

Tie the look together with cosy cream coloured throws and a selection of cushions. The seafoam colours of this ScatterBox Multi Storm Cushion are perfect.
