Nail the trend: Coastal-inspired décor

With 2023 being all about natural colours and creating a calming space in our bathrooms, what better than to embrace the coastal décor trend that’s continuing into the summer? Most of us love a relaxing day at the beach – and the sea is said to have a soothing effect on our mental health – so drawing on a beach or sea-inspired theme for your bathroom seems like an ideal choice for a cool coastal hideaway in your home.

If going coastal appeals to you, then here are some ways in which you can incorporate this look into your bathroom.

The Atlantis Blus Msaic Sheet in Blue Porcelain will bring a coastal vibe to your bathroom.

 

Coastal colours and textures

When you think of the coast, the first colours which might spring to mind are probably blue and white and, while this is a popular choice for many, it doesn’t have to limit your options. Indeed, think a little further and you may prefer to incorporate warm, sandy tones or embrace the colourful palette of a more exotic holiday, mixing in vibrant shades from the Mediterranean, such as pinks, oranges and greens.

The Warha Shetland Moon Rectified Tile will add texture.

Neutrals also work well with the coastal look, so there’s plenty of scope when it comes to selecting the colour scheme for your bathroom.

The Atlantis Blue Mosaic Sheet in Blue Porcelain is one of various blue tiles available from Tileshack and will add a touch of the aquatic to your bathroom. Meanwhile, the delicate scalloped design of the tiles also evokes a sense of the seaside – both being reminiscent of waves and of fish scales, depending on your point of view. The glossy finish and bold tone makes this an attractive tile that will add character and style to your bathroom.

For a more neutral tone, the Warha Shetland Moon Rectified Tile is a great choice for recreating the textures and tones of the coast, with its ridged design and white veining running across these matt finish tiles. They will look good paired with various other coastal-inspired colours and embody the natural look trending in 2023.

If you’d like something a bit more vibrant, then the Palm Striped Hexagon Decor Mustard Tile in Yellow Porcelain will inject a pop of colour into your bathroom and help recreate the warmth of the sunshine and that sandy beach ... The stylish hexagonal shape along with the stripe design makes this a striking tile which can also be laid in various ways, depending on which way you prefer the pattern to look.

Adding texture to your bathroom through accessories which use materials such as wood and rope – nautical-themed items, for example – can add further coastal vibes.

Meanwhile, coastal artwork and wood-effect tiles can also bring your bathroom in line with this popular trend. Vinyl tiles are a particularly good choice if you’re looking for wood or stone-effect flooring which is hard-wearing and more cost-effective than porcelain tiles, for example.

Shapes and designs

The style of your bathroom furniture is another way in which you can create a coastal vibe, as choosing organic, flowing shapes for baths and vanity units can add to that calming aesthetic. Freestanding slipper baths with smooth, flowing lines are an ideal choice in this regard. For example, the Viktor Benson Taha Freestanding Double-ended Bath in Acrylic embodies those natural curves, evoking the gentle swell of waves and rounded pebbles for a more relaxing ambience.

The Viktor Benson Taha Freestanding Bath has soft curves and a style well-suited to the coastal look.

The Josef Martin Vario Wall-mounted Vanity Unit with Prism Front and Pebble Worktop with an Oval Room Blue Painted Finish, meanwhile, combines the blue and white look of the coast in the unit’s colour, with soft curves achieved in the freestanding white basin. Texture is further incorporated into the vanity with the prism profiled drawer design.

The sleek aesthetic of these products also carries a contemporary style, meaning your bathroom will look modern and chic, as well as embracing that coastal trend.

Coastal bathroom accessories

Accessorise with the Viktor Benson Bamboo Bath Caddy and Bath Board.

When it comes to coastal accessories for your bathroom, wooden bath caddies can be a discrete way to add a natural timber look and incorporate some of the outdoors into your inside space.

The Viktor Benson Bamboo Bath Caddy and Bath Board in Bamboo is an inspired choice for adding a rustic coastal vibe to your bathroom. Made from high-quality bamboo, it has space for holding your bathing essentials – such as toiletries, a book, tablet, glass of wine, or whatever you need – while also being anti-slip and adjustable, so it can attach to any size of tub.

A mirror can also be a great way to accessorise your bathroom and, keeping with the coastal theme, these can add texture and complement your overall design. For example, the Brushed Brass Plain Round Frame Mirror has a warm brass surround which will add depth to your bathroom as well as adding light to the space. The golden tone of the mirror will look great paired with coastal colours like blues and whites, while also being ideal alongside neutral or earthy tones.

Mirrors add light and can complement your coastal bathroom décor.

Whether you want to go minimalist with an all-white interior, choose blue and white, go for a more wood-effect look, or incorporate Mediterranean and sunset colours into your bathroom, the coastal theme is very versatile. Simply choose a starting point for your design and then build it from there. No matter which way you style it, going coastal in your bathroom will refresh your home and make it a welcoming and relaxing space for you to enjoy.
