What comes to mind when you think of the beach? Sand, sea air, waves, shells, driftwood, and seaweed. Let nature inspire the colors and textures when you create a maritime living room.
Maritime decor with a pastel blue wall
Maritime design can be elegant, modern, and fresh. You can bring the feeling of summer into your home whether or not you live near the sea. The key is to keep the look tasteful, rather than relying too heavily on obvious nautical blue.
Maritime living room furniture and beautiful views
A maritime living room is easy to build with pillows, lamps, furniture, and accessories inspired by the coast. Curtains can soften the light, while natural textures such as linen, cotton, jute, and sisal add a beach-house feeling. Sea glass and simple glassware can also support the theme.
Mint green walls and rattan furniture
A palette of blues and greens creates a gentle coastal feeling and recalls a charming cottage by the sea.
