Coastal Style Bedroom Furniture

Creating a coastal style interior involves incorporating natual colours to capture the beauty of the coast, and creating an inviting, comfortable space.

A popular choice is to use a blue and white colour scheme to resemble the summer sky, the sea and the breaking waves. As an alternative, you could also decorate the room so that it highlights rather than imitates the coastal scene by downplaying interior colours and using a predominantly white colour scheme so that the eye is drawn to the view outside the window; be it a coastal or coutryside scene.

Whitewash your room and add white painted floorboards. Keep the whole look fresh and clean by using only white furniture such as a coastal style wardrobe, chest of drawers and white painted bedframe.

Add accent colours of blue or coral via cushions, lamps and beddings. Choose fabrics with monochrome stripes to enhance the coastal feel – Ian Mankin offer a great selection of striped fabrics. Large overstuffed cushions and pilliows will add a feel of homely comfort.
