Found: Aqualand At Home.
I've been missing my daily beach walks, so today we're decorating around an utterly relaxing aesthetic that reminds me of the sea.
Since being laid up with this darn foot for the last few weeks, I've really been missing my morning beach walks with Frances. And since I’ve always been drawn to a rather aquatic color palette, that’s what we're looking at today. Decorating with neutral undertones, adding seafoam greens, teal, and pale aqua blues is a lovely way to create a fresh, calming vibe to your space. These muted, subtle colors have a soothing, tranquil feel that’s pretty perfect when you want to dial down the intensity of our manic world a bit. Like the incredible Glass House in São Paulo by architect Lina Bo Bardi photographed here so beautifully by Herz and Blut (above & just below), these colors effortlessly blend together, creating an eclectic look that feels visually interesting but never attention-grabbing—instead rather gently setting a mood, allowing the outdoors, not to mention the other elements in the room, shine. They also work with a variety of design styles, from eclectic to minimalist, and can be achieved easily by bringing some of the great outdoors inside, too.
