Coastal interior design bring the tranquility and natural influences of seaside locales into private homes. But while the style can be as relaxed as a day at the beach, many professionals have elevated the classic coastal look, adding touches of sophistication and luxury to waterfront and landlocked homes alike. Today’s coastal interior designers take traditional elements such as nautical nods, blue-and-white hues, wood paneling, rattan furnishings, linen textiles, and tropical motifs and add contemporary accents, bold colors, and blue-chip art to the mix. Natural beauty is a through line in the work of these design talents—all of whom are listed on the AD PRO Directory. So whether you want a beach-y retreat or a polished, nautical-inspired penthouse, these examples of coastal interior design are inspiring and timeless.
