How we style an entrance in a coastal home

Let’s take a look at how we bring together our classic contemporary style and the revitalising influence of the sea to create that perfect entrance hall. We want to create a space that radiates elegance and relaxation, setting the perfect tone for your home. As Bruce puts it, "We're all about capturing that timeless yet refreshing vibe inspired by the ocean."

1. Coastal Palette:

   We start by choosing soothing colors inspired by the ocean. Think soft blues, pops of colour, and crisp whites. "These light shades will make your entrance hall feel open and airy, allowing natural light to work its magic," suggests Bruce.

2. Embrace Nature:

   Integrate natural materials like driftwood and jute rugs to bring that coastal charm into your entrance hall. "Textures from nature add warmth and create a cozy, inviting atmosphere," says Kelsey.

3. Let There Be Light:

   Make a statement with your lighting. "Choose a chandelier or pendant light that mimics the beauty of sea coral or a cascading wave. It'll instantly become a focal point," advises Bruce.

4. Timeless Furniture:

   For a classic contemporary look, opt for furniture pieces that stand the test of time. "A vintage console table with a textured finish will reflect character and make your space feel personal. And don't forget a comfy bench or chair for practicality," suggests Kelsey.

5. Coastal Art and Accents:

   Complete the look with carefully selected artwork and accessories. "Seascapes, abstract pieces with hints of blue, and nautical-themed art will channel that coastal vibe," recommends Bruce. Display decorative items like seashells, coral-inspired sculptures, or beach grass in a glass vase for added maritime charm.

"Let the sea guide your design choices, and watch your entrance hall transform into a welcoming oasis."
