Opt for blues and nude furniture that will pair effortlessly with wicker or wooden décor. If you want a more nautical inspired look, you can also incorporate reds and whites. Choose pieces that are white washed to add a rugged yet chic look, and then add warmth with velvet furniture. 2. Dreaming of driftwood When we think of the beach, no two textures are the same. From the harsh beauty of driftwood to the soft sand, this can be mirrored by mixing textures within furniture designs. With a traditional, elegant look; the Mitzi Armchair has been made from soft linens whilst the Mid Century inspired El Capitan range features a rustic wooden look. 3. Sea shelves Use open shelving to house beach inspired accessories such as ceramic shells or replica coral designs.
