The Seaside Style

When one thinks of Montreal, the sea isn't the first thing that comes to mind. However, interior design inspired by the seaside is making waves in the metropolitan region, bringing a breath of fresh air to our urban spaces. This style, suggesting the serenity of beaches and the gentle melody of waves, has become a popular choice for those looking to renovate their homes.

A Palette Inspired by Nature

The seaside style stands out for its light and soothing colors. Shades of blue from the sky and ocean, the turquoise of tropical lagoons, the light gray of pebbles, and the beige of sand dunes dominate this palette. These hues lay the foundation of this style, creating a peaceful and welcoming atmosphere. In a kitchen, a countertop in light or whitewashed wood, paired with blue and turquoise accents, captures the feeling of a seaside meal.

Textures and Materials: A Return to Roots

The light linen, rattan, and whitewashed wood... These natural materials are at the heart of the seaside style. They remind us of the textures found on the beach, from the soft sand under our feet to the shells we pick up during our strolls. In a bathroom, the use of these materials transforms a functional space into a haven of peace. A whitewashed wood vanity, soft linen towels, and rattan accessories all contribute to creating an atmosphere reminiscent of a relaxing vacation.

Natural Light and Decorative Elements: The Call of the Sea

Natural light is an essential element of the seaside style. It highlights colors and materials, reminiscent of the brightness of a sunny day at the beach. Decorative elements, on the other hand, are the final touch that brings the design to life. Cushions with natural textures, frames with images of marine landscapes, or even objects brought back from trips, like starfish or corals, perfect the atmosphere.

Interior design is an expression of our identity. In Montreal, although far from the coasts, the St. Lawrence River anchors our region in a maritime essence. With the seaside style, this character finds its place even in the heart of our urban interiors.
