COASTAL CRUISING

GIVE YOUR HOME AN EASY-BREEZY, RELAXED BEACH HOUSE VIBE

- 

1 STEP ON IT

If you’re lucky enough to have space for an elevated timber deck, don’t skimp on its dimensions. Go wide and deep and you’ll have lots of space for entertaining. Rather than narrow steps down to the garden, use full-width versions that can offer spare informal seating for chilling and shooting the breeze.

The beach is calling! Even if you don’t live in a cottage by the ocean, you can still transport yourself to a seaside locale and enjoy the undeniably laidback vibe of a beach house. It could be as easy as painting your walls and windows with soothing watery tones, using tongue-and-groove panelling, opting for casual yet comfy furniture made from natural materials and decorating with a few special coastal-inspired elements. Happy holidays!

2 TAKE IN THE SIGHTS

Design your open-plan space to maximise the outdoor views, be they sea- or garden-scape. Here, a wide bank of windows and doors allows you to drink in the sights from the thoughtful placement of the lounging, dining and cooking zones.

3 TABLE MANNERS

With plates, glassware and table runners in harmony with the palette, all that’s left is for seagrass placemats to complete the table.
