Bathrooms

Bath and shower rooms appear to be a favourite when embracing the nautical look, no matter the location of the property.

The ‘theme’ can be fully embraced or subtle nods towards the seaside. The style works well both in a traditional setting as well as contemporary homes and hotels.

Here we look at some examples.

textures that make you think of the seaside help to achieve a beachy feel without feeling like you have a themed room.

When you think of nautical you do tend to think of lighter, white rooms with hints of pale blues, navy and reds, however the nautical look works so well in darker shades too, here are two examples.

Cowes week and the quintessential nautical interior

We are often instructed to create nautical designs in our clients homes, either flowingScreen Shot 2018-08-09 at 20.59.25.png through the entire property, or in a particular room.  It’s a timeless design and adding personal touch this look can be either classic or highly contemporary.

Based on the southcoast of England enjoying views of the Solent and enjoying the waterthe nautical style is one that is very much close to our hearts.
