Once you have found your inspiration, it is time to start planning:<\/p>\n

Choose a soothing color palette<\/h2>\n

One of the best aspects of coastal design is its ability to make you feel relaxed. Everyone loves the beach and the relaxing sound of the waves, the warmth of the sun, the cool breeze, and the feel of soft sand. Creating that same feeling in your bedroom with a beach theme takes careful planning, and that starts with choosing a color palette that conveys those calm and peaceful feelings.<\/p>\n

Start with a base of neutrals that reflect the contrasting beach colors- water against sand, water against the sky, and sky against the sand. However, rather than using monochromatic hues to create a stark contrast, focus on including more muted tones. Take the sand and water contrast for example and use shades of brown, tan, white, yellow, and blue to create your color palette. If you like the water and sky tones then go with shades of green and blue and throw in white and grey as a contrasting color to break things up a bit. Be creative and use the natural colors to help you choose the colors you want to use in your new beach themed bedroom.<\/p>\n

Stick to a simple layout<\/h2>\n

The layout of the room itself is an important part of creating a beach theme that is not too heavy-handed or overwhelming and tacky. This is where modern coastal design really differs from its predecessor. The reason many people are put off by nautical themed d\u00e9cor is that in the past it was done to the extreme and was overdone so much it looked more like a nautical museum than a home. The interior design experts at Seaside Furniture can help you get the best pieces that fit the layout and floorplan of your room.<\/p>\n

The new push for beach and nautical theme focuses on accessorizing with the beach d\u00e9cor and using it to create the theme rather than forcing the theme in an overbearing way. To do this, allow the room\u2019s function to be the star. When you are designing a beach themed bedroom<\/strong>, choose a few pieces with the beach look and feel, rather than making every item in the room scream beach scene.<\/p>\n

You should work with what the bedroom\u2019s floor plan already has to offer rather than trying to force a bunch of things into the room that really does not fit. Keep in mind that in the bedroom, a place you spend a great deal of your time every day, the furniture you use is especially important. You will want to choose subtle themes for the larger pieces of furniture then add accent pieces that help pull the beach or nautical themes together.<\/p>\n

Play with plenty of textures<\/h2>\n

Beyond what we see we get a lot of our beach experiences from what we feel. From the warmth of the sun, the roughness of the shells and stones, the soft sands, and the unique texture of rope and canvas, it all works together with our other senses to create that beach experience. If you want to create a beach themed bedroom that you can fall in love with, you need to take care of the tactile aspect of that experience as well.<\/p>\n

Start by layering lots of different textures together. Mimic the texture as well as the look of rope with a braided circular floor rug or rope accents along with the curtains or on other areas as an accent. The texture of sand and shells can be brought in with carefully places glass decoration jars that create a miniature beach you can keep on your shelf at all times. Also, think about other textures like a canvas that can be used in window treatments and paper that can be brought in with nautical themed wall decorations. Blending is key when it comes to textures that are used in beach themed bedrooms.<\/p>\n

Use both modern and traditional accents<\/h2>\n

You can also create a balanced beach themed bedroom with those special little touches and accents that are used in the room\u2019s design and decor. The accessories are where you put final coastal touches into your aesthetic. You can use both modern nautical d\u00e9cor<\/a> along with more traditional beach themed pieces as you see fit to create the look and feel you want for your room. Seaside Furniture has plenty of furniture and accessory pieces for you to consider as you design your bedroom\u2019s new look!<\/p>\n

A traditional theme usually is bold and obvious- signs that say, \u2018welcome to the beach\u2019, a pile of shells, a huge anchor on the wall, and a lighthouse table lamp. A modern theme usually relies on accents such as a nautical flag on the wall, a rope themed floor rug, and fabrics that hint at nautical and beach fabrics. You can use one or the other or both but the thing to remember is to treat them as accents and finishing touches so things do not get too out of hand and cluttered and overwhelming.<\/p>\n
