It’s no wonder this style is defining Sarastoa interior design today. Let’s look at a few ways to achieve this modern coastal vibe in your space!
Colour
An eye-catching coastal style leans on colours inspired by surrounding nature. Think deep ocean blues, silvery dunegrass greens and warm sandy browns that blend seamlessly from outside to inside. Carefully considered and layered, these hues work to create harmonious interiors.
In the residential kitchen below (left), we paired a driftwood-inspired island front with Ben Moore’s “Knoxville Gray” – a captivating grayish blue-green. In the bathroom below (right), we selected glazed porcelain wall tile with variations in water-inspired shades of greens and blues.
Tip: Stacking wall tiles vertically is a more contemporary look that also helps to accentuate the height of a space.
Material
Natural patterns and textures also help set the stage for this coastal style.
Look for furniture with contemporary lines that incorporate organic materials, like these dining rooms chairs with caning on the back.
Another way to achieve a modern coastal vibe is to let your flooring material flow seamlessly from your interior to your exterior.
Dekton by Cosentino is a blend of raw materials used to produce surfaces that are resistant to stains, scratches, heat and UV light. It looks like natural stone but won’t fade or degrade over time, making it the perfect material for your outdoor kitchen and indoor living spaces alike! Dekton’s “Sasea” (below, right) was inspired by natural limestone and comes in a greyish-sandy tone – perfect for your contemporary coastal home.
