Are you one of the lucky ones who have a house at the sea? A comfortable relaxing corner where you can spend your holidays, or even just a weekend, to get away from your daily routine?
Then you will also have countless doubts about how to decorate and make it unique and fresh...
It may seem simple but, in fact, giving a touch of freshness while keeping intact the cozy air, is not simple.
When it comes to a beach house , we often decorate it with second choice furnitureit is often considered a second choice in the furniture. We often decorate our villa with unused furniture or gifts from friends, things that not knowing where to store, we just put them on the first available space... In short, the beach house , over time becomes almost a small deposit, a messy container full of old furniture and junk. But why shall we renounce new and at the same time cheap furnishings, which can make your place more enjoyable for your summer holidays?
Although the budget is limited, you can furnish your seafront shelter tastefully and with a good dose of originality. Follow our ideas and suggestions to transform your home into a chic and functional environment.

Minimal, shabby chic or marine style: there can be many style solutions suitable for your beach house. A taste that will take into account not only the interior but also the exterior and practicality.
So, this is the choice we recommend first of all: style. Then you will be able to choose colors, fabrics, furnishing materials, accessories and decorations for both indoor and outdoor use. Let's see them in detail...

Tones too extravagant or dark and dark shades are absolutely forbidden. Avoid, therefore, warm colors such as red, orange and purple; they tend to shrink space and prevent you from relaxing.
Free way, instead, to white and beige as the predominant color, to be combined with pastel shades such as light blue, green lime or yellow.
White, in addition to being a color that is well matched with marine environments, reflects, not assimilating, sunlight and makes the spaces spacious, relaxing and serene. Pastel shades will give a touch of originality to your home and will immediately send you a whirl of freshness.

The materials to be preferred are the rough ones that, in addition to requiring little maintenance and better resistance to time wear and salt water, are perfectly tuned to the location.
So how should you make your home not ordinary? Use white lacquered or natural wood. Wood is the true owner of a seaside home that is respected and can be used, with some care, even for floors.
Therefore, incorporate wood furniture or wicker and straw furniture and play with accessories and furnishing accessories to create an even more natural setting. Choose stripes or sea fantasies , such as those depicting boats, shells, sailor knights, coral, fish, or starfish.
To make every detail really personal, you can make DIY compositions, such as glass jars filled with sand, beachwood reclaimed on the beach, stones and shells to use to decorate shelves or even the dining table!
And do not forget ... Some objects can also be exploited differently! Turn pallets or old shutters into tables, or a hoop in an original coat rack! Free your fantasy!
And remember not to exaggerate with the decorations: the chic style of the house at sea is also achieved through sobriety.
Curtains? Clear, white, light: the beauty of a sea-view house is just its frame, which must not be obscured!
The fabrics used for other furnishing accessories must also meet these requirements: white or otherwise light and easily washable. Prefer natural fabrics such as linen, cotton and gauze to cover sofas and beds, but also for pillows and tablecloths.

The outdoor spaces are certainly the most experienced, especially after the sunset, so it is important to furnish them with care and attention. Whether it is a terrace or a garden, always try to recreate an area for eating meals, with a table and chairs in wood or wrought iron, and a living area with outdoor sofas, perhaps wicker and fabric where you can relax until late at night.
If you have space, use hammocks and swingers that are extremely relaxing and pleasing to the sight and, why not, some sun loungers or deckchairs, so you can enjoy the sun even comfortably at home!
