This design encapsulates the essence of coastal elegance, a design theme that marries the serene beauty of the seaside with modern aesthetics. Too often, coastal designs are stereotyped as being “casual”, while on the other hand, this design is an example of how a beachy aesthetic can be carried out in a way that is both chic and modern.
Reminiscent of deep ocean waters, Cambria’s Quartz countertop in the design “Portrush” mimics the rich blue tones seen in waves crashing on the shore, and adds a fun burst of color to any kitchen. At a closer look, Cambria’s “Portrush” design is contrasted by flecks of gold that add an elegant feel to the surface, causing the blue ripples within the design to appear more vibrant. As each Cambria design is patent protected, and each slab is unique, you can be sure that any Cambria surface will be unique to you and your home. Cambria even has a distribution center just a short drive away in Pooler, where their expert staff can help you match any colors or themes to the perfect Cambria surface for any room. Protected by a lifetime transferable warranty, you can rest easy knowing that Cambria is only a call away.
The coastal influences in this design are truly brought home by the different lighting fixtures seen throughout this design. The chandeliers and pendants, with their wooden and woven textures, echo the natural elements found along the coast. Their shapes and designs are reminiscent of driftwood and seashells, bringing an organic touch to the interior. Unique fixtures such as these are a hallmark of Hudson Valley’s company: Corbett Lighting, whose mission is to provide bold clients accessibility to highly designed fixtures crafted with premium materials. A few of the Corbett designs that stand out in these images are the wide Capiz shell vanity light, the “Esperanza” wall sconce, and the “Cartagena” Capiz shell chandelier. Reminiscent of sea shells one would find on private beaches or deep sea diving, Corbett’s “Esperanza” collection helps accentuate the coastal motif within this design while still maintaining an air of elegance thanks to the gold detailing delicately tracing the curves of the shell-like sconce. Likewise, the Capiz shell vanity light and chandelier featured in this design flow seamlessly together with the overarching theme in both the kitchen and the bath, as the natural Capiz shells adorning each fixture are illuminated against the light, revealing their luminous pearlescent finish that is both beachy and elegant.
Further leaning into the theme of this design, one’s attention can’t help but be drawn to the golden vessel sink manufactured by Bocchi. Making a name for themselves in the kitchen and bath market since the 1950s, Bocchi is an American company that excels in incorporating cutting-edge styles and colors within all of their products, setting them apart from other kitchen and bath appliance companies. Not only are Bocchi’s products stylish, but they are also made under strict quality control standards, and protected by lifetime limited warranties. Bocchi’s “Etna” vessel sink in the color “matte gold” serves as a prime example of the many finishes and styles available to you when looking through a Bocchi catalog. In this design, the sink’s organic shape and luxurious finish perfectly mirror the feeling of tranquility and opulence that is carried through the other various elements within each space.
With many mixed textures at play within this design, incorporating Tesoro’s “Ocean Stone” tile seemed like a no-brainer choice for the coastal theme. With fossilized shell fragments scattered throughout the tan and white stones, one can nearly feel themselves being transported to a sandy beach full of shells galore. Tesoro is a company that specializes in ceramic, porcelain, and stone tiles in almost any imaginable design. Many of these tiles such as Tesoro’s porcelain and ceramic collections even boast natural antibacterial, hypoallergenic, and odor-resistant properties, in addition to being highly durable. Tesoro’s “Ocean Stone” tile is only one example of the many beautiful and one-of-a-kind tiles one would find difficult to find anywhere other than Tesoro.
