That’s Pinteresting! Nautical Inspiration
One of my favorite boards I have on Pinterest is called “Sea”. It’s dedicated to all things nautical and beautiful pictures of the ocean.
Recently I’ve been inspired by the ocean to create a nautical inspired room. Having a nautical room doesn’t have to be taken too literally, meaning, anchors and boats do not have to dominate the design. The rooms I am inspired by draw from the colors of the sea, whether that be blues from the water or the tan from the sand as a neutral. This week, I’ve found a few nautical inspired rooms on Pinterest that could make anyone want to escape to a beachside cottage.
This design is simple with its use of neutral colors. I love the pops of black and the subtleness of the starfish placed in a box near the back.
Navy and white stripes: the quintessential nautical design. I like how the brighter blue was added to the palette. The different varieties of stripes adds dimension to the room and shed a different light on the classic horizontal stripe.
The use of color, natural wood, and sand in small ways bring the beach theme into this beautiful home.
There are endless amounts of colors that can be drawn from the ocean and a sunset. Use these to create a diverse color scheme in a nautical theme room. Don’t be afraid to break out of the traditional navy.
Isn’t this view amazing? I love the use of pink and white stripes instead of navy and white.
The colors from this sunset are breathtaking. The orange and pink could be translated into accessories for the home, like below…
