Get the Look: Beach-house Styling

Beach-House Style or Coastal Design - however you describe it, you’re going to want to do a mix of wood finishes, some curtains and blinds, natural elements and whites (whitewash walls, white furniture /finishings, etc.). Jute textures are also a key component within a beach-house styled space as it adds that costal - jute textures also play well with others and is relatively cheap, and exceptionally durable.

In terms of your decor, adding some nautical decorations like anchors, oars, seashells, etc. will level up your beach house style to instantly recognizable - whether you’re right by the beach or miles from the coast, this style is easily achievable with the right colours and textures.
