Francoise V Fine Art : How to create that Beach-Chic Home
Get your dream beach home interior ready for the New Year with these inspirations and artwork from Francois V Fine Art.
The essence of beach house interior design comes down to a combination of neutral beach colour palettes and textures. Neutral hues that work beautifully together include white, beige, cream, grey and pops of blue and green. Basically, all the colours of the sea… surf, sand and sky.
Texture is everything
Modern beach house décor incorporates an abundance of natural elements such as wood, baskets, natural rugs, woven light fixtures, and fabrics like cotton and linen. Interiors are generally more neutral and organic, with a carefree (yet chic) aesthetic that doesn’t take itself too seriously. Think comfy seating, wrinkly linens and cottons, casually thrown pillows and throw blankets, and weathered woods.
Earthy Elements
Invite nature in… Palm trees create that wonderful dreamy holiday feel. Add artwork of palm trees to give you those subtle green earthy hues and texture. Add in light natural raw wood furniture to create a reminisce of driftwood.
Ocean Elements
Ocean inspired artwork, adds a little drama to an understated room and is the best way to decorate a luxury beach life. The blue and white contemporary artwork adds to the home’s coastal feel without overwhelming the space. Beach artwork makes it casual but refined, and maybe even a little glamorous.
Birds in Flight
The imagery of birds flying over the ocean with soft blue hues as their canvas takes me straight back to the beach. Add a beautiful statement piece to transport you to the beauty of the shore.
