Soothing interiors, natural color tones, and natural textured fibers, all represent characteristics of coastal living. Decorating in coastal themes often include an abundance of natural light so that the space being decorated feels open any airy. Use a worn look such as a sun bleached, and or sand eroded surfaces, along with white washed worn furniture pieces, trays, and lighting fixtures. There are several paths you could take when deciding on coastal decorating. I have listed 5 very different ways of coastal design ideas below as follows.

East Coastal Design tends to have more vibrant color hues, and have a high demand for white, and navy stripes, classic or chic. East coast tends to have a more of a traditional feel,and matching sets, however keeping the same design feel throughout. East coast is more reserved as far as color, and prints.

2. West Coastal Design is definitely more carefree, bold, and laid back in it’s expressions of design. Bringing in as much of the outdoors, is definitely at the top of the list. West coast will have a more of a modern feel included in with a very relaxed style. Natural materials,and fibers are scattered generously throughout to obtain a natural outdoors feel.

3. Modern Coastal is the use of simple modern designs with the added look of natural fibers, seagrass, and ocean color pallets. Add plenty of textures to each room, think how you feel when you are on a beach and incorporate that in your look.

4. Coastal Chic has the influence of tranquility. Distressed woods, soft layered fabrics,and natural materials can be implemented, along with carefully placed seating arrangements. Shells and coral are usually used to add more of that relaxing coastal touch.

5. Coastal Farmhouse is a blend of farmhouse, and coastal elements to bring together a unique setting. White washed wood, iron, metal decor, and distressed elements make up the characteristics of this amazing look.
