I was inspired to create this coastal paint color palette by a photo of a beach house living room with a cream-colored couch, beautifully painted pastel walls, and a large photo of the beach.
In this post, I’ll discuss why this light cream, soft beige, light blue, muted sage, and deep sea blue color combination works well in home decor. Then, I will provide the color hex codes and the Sherwin-Williams paint color matches.
This post is all about my coastal paint color palette!
Why This Color Scheme Works Well in Home Decor
This coastal color combination captures the essence of the beach with its soothing and natural hues.
The light cream and soft beige create a warm and inviting base reminiscent of sandy shores.
The light blue and muted sage evoke the tranquility of the ocean and coastal vegetation, while the deep sea blue adds depth
Together, these colors bring a sense of calm and relaxation, making them perfect for a beach house where you want to unwind and feel connected to nature.
