Zo creëer je een strandhuis gevoel in je huis

This way you create a beach house feeling in your home

Summer vacation is over, it's time to go back to school and work. By creating a beach house feeling at home, you can keep that holiday feeling a little longer. With these simple adjustments you can transform your house into a beach house.

Use light colors and natural materials 

Why wait for a house on the beach when you can create the beach house feeling at home yourself? We don't mean that you have to fill your house with scaffolding wood, fishing nets and nautical stripes. By using soft colors and furniture made of natural materials such as rattan and linen, you automatically create a beachy atmosphere.

Beachy vibes in the living room 

You usually spend most of your time in the living room. Bring the beach house feeling into your home by choosing a sofa in a soft color, such as the  Wilson couch . Or go for natural materials, such as the Milan rattan sofa , which contains linen in addition to rattan – a fabric that is perfect for the beach. 

Mimic the beach through a large burlap or  white wool carpet on the floor. This also ensures that you can walk around barefoot, as it should be in a beach house. 

A beach feeling in the bedroom 

A bedroom in a beach house should radiate tranquility. Go for a rattan bed  in light colors and work with white or light blue linen bedding for an airy feel. Use a hammam towel as a plaid over your bed and place a palm in the corner of your room to complete the beach feeling. 

Are you going for next level beach vibes ? Then put a wake-up light on your bedside table to create a sunset and sunrise. Often these alarm clocks also have a function that allows you to fall asleep to the sound of the waves of the sea.

A beach-style bathroom 

In the bathroom, work with terrazzo to create the illusion of a sandy beach with shells. For example with a terrazzo floor or a terrazzo washbasin . Use a bamboo ladder to hang your towels and go for a bath mat in a light, sandy color. 

Use a wicker basket as a laundry basket and place a candle or soaps in the scent of the sea to complete the beach house feeling. Do you want to create a real holiday feeling in your bathroom?
