COASTAL LIVING

BY KAYLEIGH TROTT OF STUDIO JUTE

There is feeling of freedom that comes with living close to the sea. Whether you favour an early morning swim, or long days spent by the water until the sun dips below the horizon, coastal living is hard to beat.

The ebb and flow of the tides create a relaxed state that can soothe even the busiest of minds; wouldn’t it be wonderful to bottle that feeling and take it home with you? Introducing elements of the coastline into your interiors through organic motifs, natural materials, and thoughtful colour schemes, can create a subtle shift that promotes a sense of wellbeing and encourages laid-back living.

Our selection of coastalinspired homeware will help you do just that, where sun-bleached colours work in harmony with deep indigos, corals and greens; step outside this summer and be inspired by life on our Island.

Synonymous with laid back living, stripes are a classic when it comes to coastal schemes. For a modern take, go for this bold striped runner, particularly effective in hallways and on stairs, where the vertical lines create an inviting pathway through the space.

A fresh palette of blues and whites, beautiful natural linens and aquatic motifs, adding uplifting fabrics to a simple backdrop is a quick way to add some coastal charm to your home. The tailor-made offering at Anne Ginger means you can mix and match cushions, curtains, blinds, and tablecloths to create your dream scheme.

Smoothed by the sea on their journey to your home, each of these beautiful driftwood sculptures has a unique story to tell. A wonderful natural addition to your home, these pieces can be crafted into lighting, tables and accessories by the team at Acacia Bay to your requirements.
