This seafoam green door shore is good

The most popular look in home design where I live is the coastal living look that I’ve started calling ‘seaside sophisticate.’
Seaside sophisticate is an elevated way of doing that beachy-shore look without being cliché by using rope, anchors, seashells, starfish and oars.
With seaside sophisticate, it’s possible to exude a beachy vibe without being limited to the cottage or vintage home decor style that a literal interpretation of seaside would prescribe. By being subtle and subdued, your home will feel more like afternoon tea on Martha’s Vineyard and less like the 99 cent souvenir shops on a crowded boardwalk.
