If you are wanting to achieve a coastal inspired, space with an effortless and relaxed look, start by adding lots shades of white to your doors, architraves, floors, furniture, window furnishings, soft furnishings and wall decor. White comes in an array of shades from blazing white to clotted cream.
To create depth and warmth to your white decor, start by adding some texture to your walls with art work. Choose pieces like a Mandala Wall Panel with its quirky cut out design or soft fluffy feather Juju's with their shell centres. And of course, shell decor, classic coastal pieces.
Add white shutters internally to your windows and white privacy screens to your outdoor entertaining area.
Soft furnishings like cushions and throws can include tassels, tufting and fringing.
Include whitewashed and soft weathered grey timbers for flooring and rattan or cane furniture.
Add decor pieces like white candle sticks and scented candles or whitewashed baskets and beaded decor boxes.
And include plants with large luscious shiny leaves either in pots or hanging macrame to add a splash of colour and bring the natural tropical environment indoors.
Create a style that reflects your own lifestyle and include items that you may have curated from your travels or if your hands on that you may have upcycled yourself to create a unique space.
White is a timeless colour scheme which can look totally relaxed with a sunny beachy vibe, effortlessly chic or perhaps a more sophisticated formal style is more to your taste.
