What is Coastal Living 

Modern coastal living décor blends classic elements of traditional coastal and nautical design with the sleekness and freshness that’s become the calling card of modern, contemporary style. Whether you are looking for coastal elegance, beach chic vibes, a Hamptons style, or a cottage feel, you can channel the tranquility and comfort of a seaside excursion through the lens of contemporary, casual design.

Designing A Coastal Living Interior

You can design a coast living interior easily by tying in touchable textures, natural accents, and a crisp, light-filled color scheme.

Textures & Materials

While many individuals tend to go more minimalistic when it comes to coastal style, you can still incorporate different textures, textiles, and various materials to add to your space. Tying in touchable textures is an easy way to include Coastal and nautical décor. Classic coastal materials such as various weathered woods, rattan, and wicker can create a natural environment.  Rattan and wicker should be balanced with softer textiles. Add fiber area rugs and wispy drapes to add a more cozy and softer feel. Adding contrasting textures and materials with features such as a tiled or mirrored kitchen splashback will immediately change the mood and feel of your space. Kitchen flooring offers countless options and adds additional texture to a room. Terracotta adds warmth and coziness, and polished wooden floorboards create a nautical, coastal feel. Tile flooring provides a cool, modern look depending on the styles and design you choose. 

Coastal Color

Use color to bring out the soft and airy vibes of a seaside home! Think about beachfront shades that bring calming feelings – light and airy blues, soft corals, crisp whites, cloudy grays, and sandy tans. The muted beachy tones and an abundance of neutrals in your color palette help maintain the minimalist feel essential to a modern coastal space. Looking for a little more pizazz behind your space? Try using bold hues of blue to offset the white or ivory.
