Colors

Characterized by large windows and a blue and white color scheme, coastal designed homes are ideal for warmer parts of America, especially in the state of Florida. Earth tones and bright coastal colors like vibrant blues, greens, oranges, and yellows blend into one another to bring the outside in. Navy whites and stripes as well as pastels of blues and tans help to keep a continuation of the sandy beaches and clear water.

Textures

Wicker baskets and headboards add natural design to a Florida home and natural wood cabinets give an island feel to the space. Paneled walls are uniform and balanced, especially on a bedroom wall and add soft and textured fabrics like throw pillows and blankets help to break the space up.

Accents

Consider adding a daybed to your beachy home design. Against your open windows, add flowy curtains and accents to your bed with throw pillows of muted tones with accents of blue, green, or teal. To light up a room, natural beaded chandeliers and accent lighting adds a touch of bohemian, while keeping the beach theme at the forefront.

Scandinavian Design 

With inspiration from parts of Europe, A Scandinavian style home is rustic with a modern touch.

Colors

A Scandinavian home reflects the symmetry and sophistication of European architecture.

A white or sandy tan base (walls, furniture) allows for more accents and the ability to play with different colors and textures.

Textures

Combining the old and the new, these homes are largely influenced by Northwestern European countries like Denmark, Iceland, and Norway. Patterned and naturally toned braided or burlap rugs and earthy textures like stone and wood keep a traditional Scandinavian home intact.

Accents

Natural driftwood accents and ferns add a great accent of varying tones and pops of color add contrast to any room. With an emphasis on quality and minimalism, natural textures like soft sculptures and handmade pottery accents keep the space sophisticated and abstract.
