Coastal

Coastal design makes everyday life feel like the first morning of a holiday — that particular lightness of waking somewhere near the sea. The palette derives from the water itself: bleached linen, whitewashed timber, soft dune tones, the specific blue of shallow water over pale sand. Rattan, jute and sisal introduce texture without weight. Sheer curtains move in draughts from open windows. The best Coastal interiors are distinguished by an extraordinary lightness — of colour, of material, of intention — that makes even a landlocked room feel permanently aired.
