Versatility | Blue comes in a wide range of shades, from soft pastels to deep navy, and everything in between. This versatility allows you to use it in various ways in your decor. Lighter blues can make a room feel more open and airier, while darker blues can add depth and richness.

Contrast | Blue accents can provide a pleasing contrast in coastal interiors. When paired with lighter colors like white, beige, or sandy tones, the blue pops and draws the eye, creating visual interest and energy.

Brighten the Space | In coastal interiors, natural light is often maximized. Blue accents can reflect and amplify the natural light, making the space feel more open and inviting.

Refreshing and Tranquil | Blue is considered a cool color, and it can create a sense of calm and tranquility. In coastal interiors, where the goal is often to evoke the relaxing atmosphere of a seaside retreat, blue can help achieve this by promoting a sense of peace and relaxation.


Timelessness | Blue is a timeless color that doesn't go out of style. It's a safe choice for those who want a classic and enduring coastal look.

Evoke the Ocean | Blue is often associated with the sea and the sky, making it a natural choice for coastal-themed interiors. It can remind people of the water and the beach, creating a connection to the natural environment. This association can be calming and rejuvenating.

Blue and Neutral | I love the pairing of blue and neutral colors.  Considered a style staple because of its simplicity, elegance, and versatility. It allows you to build a wardrobe that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing, making it easier to put together stylish outfits with minimal effort. Classically Coastal.
