Light, breezy and washed in sea-salt white.

Coastal

Coastal is the look of a bright house near the water: white walls, blue accents, pale wood and plenty of texture from rope, rattan and linen. It is relaxed and airy without being sparse. It suits any room that gets daylight, whether or not there is a beach anywhere near it.

Try first

Cheapest first. Each is something you could do this weekend, or say to Room AI now.

1 Paint the walls a warm white and swap the curtains for sheers; the room will feel coastal before any furniture changes.
2 Add one striped textile, a rug or a throw, and keep the rest plain.
3 Bring in rattan: one chair, one basket, one pendant.
4 Use blue in two places only, so it reads as an accent and not a theme.
