Just add sea foam and some bubbles and this setup is ready to impress anyone. The lovely credenza comes from FFDM’s Palm Island Collection.
Imagine constantly seeing the colors of sea life – greens, blues and a tinge of purple. Put these colors to your home’s walls and you have provided a stark contrast to your unique accessories, bed linen and fixtures. A color palette that could work inside the bedroom is anything aquatic such as sea foam green, blue and amethyst. Throw in some flamboyant patterns and you can almost see Sebastian singing Under the Sea.
If mixing these aquatic colors is not your cup of tea, then you can also go with one strong marine color such as royal blue. For instance, use this color on your bathroom walls and floors. To make the color pop, add a shower partition complete with cute sea creatures or flowers with the shades of yellow, blue, green and lavender.
The Sea-Inspired Bedroom
Using aquatic colors does not mean that you have to immediately resort to block colors. One way to make the palette more interesting is to throw in some colorful quilt on your bed while the pillowcases and the bed sheets still come in earth tones. This colorful addition will create the needed balance inside the now bohemian fresh bedroom.
Now imagine that you are designing the room of a young man or a bachelor. Primarily blue walls instantly indicate that the bedroom belongs to a male member of the family. You can tone down the blue color of the walls to make room for some plum-upholstered seats or any such interesting pieces. Add a pop to the room by installing a royal blue light bulb.
The Fresh Kitchen and Dining Area
Timeless marine looks can provide a laidback feeling to any home. Add greeneries to maintain the fresh air inside, or place pictures of flowers and the usual seashore palm trees on your kitchen walls. Adding these fresh concepts in your kitchen will make your cooking more enjoyable.
As for the dining room, you may use retro fabrics to achieve that blasé look. Add a modern touch by having custom tables. You may also set up a beachy desk area right by the corner of your bedroom.

The Beach-Like Living Room
Putting a series of loveseats or a sectional sofa can easily provide room for a crowd. Use rattan or any woven pieces to add a hip ‘60s look to your beach theme. Island living requires simple yet versatile pieces of furniture and a collection of accessories such as clam shells, coral reef parts, and other seashell decor.
Use bold greens together with oranges inside your living room. These will work well with opalescent stripes on your walls or some bird prints on blank walls. Welcome your guests to this lovely room filled with colors that literally pop.
As to the living area’s furnishings, let them be awash in blues. Wingback chairs and upholstered sofas would blend well with an oak coffee table and a collage of your family photos or some sort of vintage artwork.
To make this room more appealing, use a lamp atop a side table. You can also replace the lamp with a model sailboat especially when you have a good view of the ocean from where your living room is situated. Add Roman shades, jute rug, and an upholstered chair with white framework to make the green walls stand out.

Of course, going aquatic also means letting in a lot of sunlight. White can also be a cool color for marine-inspired living rooms so long as they are blended with blues and greens. White reflects light better so use it lavishly.
The aquatic or beach theme is one of the freshest styles that any homeowner can set up in his dwelling place. What could be airier and fresher than this concept?
