From the elegance of Coastal Hamptons to the charming nostalgia of Coastal Grandma, there’s a beachy vibe waiting to be embraced. So, which coastal style best reflects your dream space? Dive in and discover yours!

California Coastal: Laid-back with a Bohemian Feel

This style embraces a relaxed, artistic vibe. California Coastal features natural textures like woven furniture and sisal rugs, to give off a rustic feel. Think beige and browns, driftwood accents, and turquoise and blues accents with a white backdrop. Incorporate woven baskets, jute rugs, and macrame wall hangings. Bring the outdoors in with large plants and plenty of natural light. Check out this beautiful Rylie Night Stand by Universal Furniture.

Coastal Grandma: Cozy elegance with a touch of vintage charm

Embrace the nostalgic feels of Coastal Grandma in your living space. Soft blues, greens, and creams create a calming atmosphere. Think gingham and striped patterns, seashell lamps, and soft floral patterns on china or throw pillows. Incorporate natural textures with wicker furniture, linen throws, and pastel accents. Don’t forget fresh flowers – hydrangeas are a perfect pick! Tommy Bahama Home creates perfect coastal furnishings and décor that embody the nostalgia of your grandma’s home.

Coastal Farmhouse: Rustic Charm Meets Ocean Breeze

This style mixes the rustic charm of farmhouse design with the breezy feel of coastal living.
Shiplap walls and weathered furniture are key to achieving this look. Introduce pops of blue and green with throw pillows, artwork, or a nautical-themed rug. For some farmhouse flair, grab some galvanized buckets and fill them with your favorite flowers!

Coastal Hamptons: Simple Elegance for Your Coastal Home

For those who seek a bit of luxury with their coastal charm, Coastal Hamptons offers the perfect combination. Think crisp whites, navy blues, and warm neutrals for a light and airy feel. High-quality fabrics, polished wood, and stone accents create a sense of refinement. Seashells, coral, and driftwood add a touch of beachy nature, while silver and brass finishes bring sophistication. By shopping the Ocean Breeze Collection at Tommy Bahama Home, you can achieve the sophisticated, simple, breezy look of Coastal Hamptons.
