A quick and easy way to get a lovely, light, beach house look is to use paint. Give your walls a lick of a new coastal colour to instantly transform it into a room that just feels like it belongs by the sea. We love this lovely duck egg blue, it works so nicely with creams and wooden accents.

The white washed, shabby chic look is key in coastal interiors, and conveniently we have a step-by-step guide to creating a rustic paint effect. Once you are happy with the result, complete the look by adding a few nautically-inspired accessories. Coastal interiors aren't all about blue stripes and miniature ships in bottles. You can create all the beach house interiors by layering up lots of different fabrics and materials. Rugs, cushions, baskets, wall hangings can all be incorporated into your current space to create that relaxed, laid back feel that the coastal look is all about.

Made of steel, concrete, glass, and weathered gray ipe wood, the two-story house is a contemporary contrast to the neighboring bohemian beach shacks. The house is oriented to take advantage of the sun and views with a front facade encased in floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors that open up to an expansive front deck. Through these sliders lies the main floor with an open-concept double-height living, dining, and kitchen area and a lofted mezzanine. Coastal houses are called many other types of homes, including beach houses, beach bungalows, beach cottages, or beach condos. After a bushfire burned their original beach shack and property, the homeowners built a brand-new beach house on a precipice overlooking Dunalley Bay in Tasmania. Stuart Tanner Architects designed a safe haven made from steel, concrete, glass, and Tasmanian oak.

Lift the look with a wooden worktop as a contrast and pick out kitchenware that has a touch of colour to it (more on that next). If you aren't ready to commit to a full on striped sofa, maybe an armchair might be a better idea? We love the Scandi feel of the Calmsden Armchair, upholstered in Lapland Stripe from Vanessa Arbuthnott. Why not pinch this idea and mix the soft coastal look with more striking pieces like sculptural dark wooden furniture?

On the other end of the coastal design spectrum, the modern coastal style combines the edgy, minimalistic design with the relaxed, airy vibe that can be found on just about any beach. When paired, the result is a simple and soft design that highlights the elements and colors experienced on the coast. Expect to see lots of wood, glass, and natural fibers with color in blue and green hues thrown in as accents. The home’s western orientation gives it expansive water views from the kitchen and dining room, while a skylight fills the center of the home with light. The entrance is on the upper floor, where the bedrooms are tucked away, and the ground floor holds the communal spaces, which are thoughtfully connected to the landscape with expansive glass and decking.

If the more traditional blue and nautical stripes aren't quite your thing but you love the light, airy feel of coastal interiors, a simple neutral palette can be just as effective at evoking those holiday feels. Layer up different weathered coastal colours and add natural materials for plenty of texture and interest. When adding accessories, arrange them in small groups, in a haphazard way, in keeping with the whole informal look.

Make sure you check out the rest of this gorgeous lakeside summerhouse, you'll find loads of inspiration there. The main attraction of oceanfront home plans is their outdoor living space, allowing you to enjoy the beautiful surroundings – the warm air, sea breezes, plants, and trees that make these locations desirable. Many plans include lanais, spacious sun decks, wraparound porches, and patios to relax outside. There are even homes with screened porch options if you’re in an area with many bugs. Fresh air, peace of mind, and improved physical well-being are all benefits of coastal living, and our collection provides an array of coastal house plans to help make a dreamy waterfront home a reality.
The layout hugs an outdoor patio with bedrooms at one end of the house and open-concept communal areas at the opposite end. If you want to take the look even further, an all white kitchen is a sure fire way to add that airy, coastal feel to your space. You could even paint your cabinets yourself, just follow our step-by-step guide to how to paint kitchen cabinets.
A quick way to get that coastal look in your dining room is to switch out your dining chairs oooor you could even paint your current ones in a lovely sea blue. Something like Farrow & Ball's Stone Blue or Cook's Blue would work well in a coastal style interior. Inside, the living, dining, and kitchen areas are located in the heart of the home, with bedrooms along the perimeter. Although the home has a compact floor plan, vaulted ceilings give the rooms a lofty, airy feeling, and covered porches extend the living areas outdoors. The single-story 670-square-foot beach house is mindfully positioned on the property to create privacy from the street.
Combine the traditional seaside look and the more contemporary, rustic beach house look by keeping with the whole mix of materials thing, but adding in a few hints of blue. We love how this blue carpet looks against the limewashed floor, and the cushions are just the right amount of nautical without venturing into Life's better at the beach territory. Most of the 3,000-square-foot home’s spaces were reconfigured during the renovation. The old screened porch became a brand-new kitchen, expanding the home’s interior footprint.
To make the 1,600-square-foot home feel larger, the designers used double-height ceilings, expansive glass, and seamless indoor/outdoor connections to their advantage. The 1,500-square-foot circular home is centered around a metal spiral staircase, with a double-height dining room and patio to add volume. The first floor is comprised of open-concept living rooms and utility space. And upstairs, in lieu of walls, the two bedrooms are partitioned off with curtains for privacy.
