Coastal Design Interiors
I’m not ready for Fall.
And Christmas???
Don’t even get me started.
Summer is my favorite season.
And, lucky for me —
here in Southern California
it’s summer practically all year long!
And because I love summer so much,
I’m all about Coastal Design Interiors!
But you don’t have to live near the beach to bring a little Coastal Style to your home!
Here’s how easy it is to bring Coastal Design to your interiors.
USE BEACHY COLORS
Think about using your decor to reflect the color of the surf, sand and sky of the beach.
White walls, furniture and drapes are reminiscent of puffy white clouds.
Blue and aqua pillows and glass bottles reflect the sea and sky.
And sandy beige pillows and throws represent the sandy shore.
CREATE A CASUAL, LAID-BACK FEELING
Casual slipcovers, throws and accessories all add a relaxing-day-at-the-beach vibe. The asymmetrical furniture layout also adds to the casual feel of the room.
USE NATURAL FABRICS
Cotton duck slipcovers, linen bedding and pillows all give off a casual coastal feeling to your rooms.
INCORPORATE PAINTED MOLDINGS
Board and batten wainscot
and V-groove shiplap planks
are great backdrops for Coastal style interiors.
BRING IN WEATHERED FINISHES
Armoires…
bookshelves…
and floating box shelves
are all weathered wood pieces that bring a Coastal vibe to the space.
ADD SEASHORE TEXTURES
Seagrass baskets…
jute rope…
market baskets…
and straw hats
all give off that casual seashore aesthetic.
So whether you live near the beach or not,
Coastal design interiors
can give you a relaxing, I’m-on-vacation feeling
that will help you eke out and enjoy
the last few remaining weeks of summer…
…before all the pumpkins show up
