Can you feel that sea breeze? If you live near or in Jupiter, FL, then it’s clearly familiar to you, and it’s time to start getting inspired by your surroundings. When living a coastal life, you want to infuse the coastal light as much as possible. The best way to do this is to keep things simple, light and airy; which means less stress and less thinking. Win-win! Living on or near the coast is decoration enough. You can start with a clean palette and build from there. There will always be room to add your personal touch. Plus, adding the pieces that tell a story about your life and your home is the fun part. Set yourself up with a baseline and the dabs of life will be easy to infuse.
Don’t be afraid to keep it simple. You’d be surprised to realize that if you stick to a soft, easy color palette you will achieve a relaxed vibe. After all, isn’t that the reason you chose to live a coastal life?! Whites and light grays are a great starting point. We love wicker furniture, too. It is making a clean come-back in a very understated way. It is not your Grandmother’s wicker. In our opinion, the texture of wicker helps to make your home look elegant yet still keep that comfortable feeling. It also gives off major vacation vibes!
Living a clean palette doesn’t put you in the boring category. It only keeps things crisp. We embrace all genres of home design and have realized that they can each be achieved in a simplified manner. Here’s why…
Boho Chic – Bohemian and Chic. Who doesn’t want to feel these vibes?! Sand at your entrance? Part of the charm!
Traditional – Comfortable furniture, classic designs and casual décor. Everyone will want to visit and hang.
Modern – Think clean, crisp lines and definitive colors to help create simplicity.
French Country – Light florals mixed with subtle stripes. Some sheared ruffled edges maybe? That’s all.
Scandinavian – The Scandis have really inspired home style over the past decade or so. Maybe it’s the ease of Ikea or just that minimalistic and easy way of living. We see this aesthetic in beach-y homes a lot and would get down with this vibe delightfully!
Mid-century – This can work in a beach-y setting. The pieces of furniture speak for themselves so you can lighten up the room with every other piece of the puzzle.
Living a coastal life is a treasure so embrace it with your décor and love the space you occupy. Why can’t we feel like we are on vacation in our own home?! Also, keeping it light and airy means less work and less time spent getting it all gussied up. Go pour yourself a cocktail, grab your favorite book and relax. Enjoy the vacay vibes. That’s why you’re here!
