Coastal Living

Well, you don't have to live near the beach to appreciate the tranquil atmosphere of coastal interior design. If you have your own space, it can be a great location to start by combining the colours of the sky, sea, and sand to create a dreamlike motif.

By the way, coastal living is becoming increasingly popular due to its refreshing, breezy, and light atmosphere. This is mostly due to the facts that sometimes we need to escape modern settings and immerse ourselves into a peaceful surrounding, thus, the beach.
​
Not to mention, the light colours of white, blue, turquoise, and beige, which resembles the colour of soft sandy beach, are among the first things that spring to mind when you think of coastal living.

When I think about them, I picture myself lying on the beach, feet buried in warm sand and all the while sipping a delightfully cool mango blended drink. The color's calming quality reminds me of the cool sea breeze that always embraces me while I am lounging at the beach.

Then, why not try to design a living room that takes us to that environment the moment you step foot into your nest, much like most of us dreamers who cannot afford a luxury home by the beach? Only hues of cyan, a greenish blue, a combination of the sky's reflection and marine algae, might be used to accurately portray the pristine look of the water.

When utilised in interior design, shades of cyan or turquoise are an eye-catchingly  beautiful colour with a complicated character that is somewhat soothingly basic. When I plonk myself on a white couch that resembles the sand after a long day at work, I can clearly envision myself resting on a beach.

We are all dreamers aren't we? But with a little imagination, this can all be reality. ​

Here are some pieces you might add to your house to create a seaside ambiance even if you live in an urban area.

There are many different colours tones that might also assist you to bring your favourite combinations into your house, ranging from coastal turquoise to vibrant tropical palettes.

You definitely should consider some oil paintings or printable artworks for your place.
