waves & pampas grass
Fluffy pampas grass and gorgeous ocean photography give this living room a subtle coastal vibe that’s both laid-back and chic.
beachy pendant light
While the furniture and decor below certainly have a coastal vibe, the beautiful and bold raffia pendant light takes the aesthetic to the next level. We love the unique touch it adds, plus it’s a modern functional piece worth investing in.
create layers
The living room above has layers on layers on layers! Layers of texture, color, fabric, and more create an intriguing aesthetic that looks high-end yet feels warm and welcoming.
add earth tones
Adding neutral earthy hues to your ocean-inspired living room is perfect for “a surf and turf color palette that is both soothing and warm.”
We love the combination of wood tones, creams, beiges, and greens. While you may think this palette doesn’t work for coastal living rooms, the combo of sandy tones, tropical plants, and bright open space easily creates a beachy vibe.
coastal cottage
Blue and white are classic coastal colors! The elegant furnishings above create a pretty cottage vibe, while the color scheme screams coastal.
driftwood accents
Using a piece of driftwood as a centerpiece on the coffee table gives the space an alluring appeal. Pair this detail with simple beachy wall prints, coastal pillows, and throw blankets for a casual and chic California look.
soft & cozy
The plush couch and pillows, soft palette, and rounded coffee table give the room above a warm and cozy feel we adore. To complete the space, we recommend adding an eye-catching coastal wall print.
organic textures
We love pairing textures together for an earthy and alluring space. A raw wood mantle, leather couch, sisal rug, and houseplants give the living room above that gorgeous organic coastal look.
coastal furniture
We love coastal decor as much as anyone – but simple and contemporary beach-inspired furniture can steal the show and give a living room that coastal vibe without the typical decorations.
The bold and unique appeal of the armchairs and coffee table invites the look and feel of the beach indoors.
embrace the light
Natural light is a great thing to have in your living room no matter what aesthetic you have – but this element definitely enhances the look of a coastal design.
Keep your living room simple while allowing the bright light to enhance the room, making it feel open and airy.
playful pieces
Coastal decor naturally has a playful feel, and you can work with that by including fun and eclectic pieces in your home. A surfboard, unique seating, and a bold, earthy coffee table help transform this space into a coastal dream.
beachy art
Gorgeous paintings inspired by the beach make a wonderful addition to coastal living rooms. We love how the art above is a focal point that draws you into this serene space.
tropical wall decal
A wall decal is easy to add, affordable, and works for both houses and apartments to upgrade the living room in a bold way.
personal touches
If you have pictures of yourself or your family at the beach, we recommend including them in your living room for a warm and personal touch. Even a small addition can make a big difference.
You can also find a clever way to display items you’ve collected at the beach – such as driftwood, shells, sea glass, sand dollars, and more.
pastel perfection
For a soft, bright appeal, use a pastel coastal palette in your living room. We love this ivory and soft baby blue combo paired with blonde wood furniture.
understated coastal
Natural materials and a bright, open aesthetic are ideal for an understated and contemporary beach vibe. The lounge chair also adds a laid-back vibe that is perfect for a coastal room.
coral accents
Coral sculptures make an excellent addition to a coastal living room, inviting the unique shapes and textures of the ocean into your space while elevating the room.
exposed wood & navy hues
An exposed wood ceiling opens the space while adding rustic, natural texture. Pair this gorgeous feature with navy and white for a nautical palette that complements the wood.
