Surrounded by pristine beaches and lush rainforests, it is no wonder Noosa has earned its place as one of Australia’s most idyllic holiday destinations. Whether you are lucky enough to call Noosa home or you are looking to style your coastal holiday retreat, Noosa provides the perfect inspiration for the perfect interior. From the relaxed vibe to the serene beachside setting, here’s how you can draw inspiration from Noosa and its surroundings into your property styling.
Keep it simple
The key to embracing that rustic coastal style is to keep it simple. Avoid adding too many furnishings, clashing textures and decor pieces. Instead, opt for muted colours, natural materials and minimal furniture to create a calm, airy space.
If you’re lucky enough to live in a home with a view of the beach or a serene, green outlook, don’t be afraid to incorporate the beauty of the outdoors within your styling. After all, the Noosa lifestyle is all about outdoor living and making the most of the beautiful weather.
Opt for neutral tones
Nothing says coastal luxe like neutral, earthy colours. Picking your colour palette is a great opportunity to take inspiration from the Noosa environment. From whitewashed walls to earthy rugs and light furnishings, embracing these colours throughout your home will help to create a relaxed, calming ambience. And while neutral tones are key to coastal styling, that doesn’t mean you can’t also incorporate pops of colour throughout your home to add a little interest. Think a mustard throw across the lounge, blue cushions or a bright piece of artwork to adorn the wall.
Incorporate natural materials and textures
Another great way to embrace natural coastal elements throughout your home is through the use of textures and natural materials. One of the main drawcards of Noosa is its beautiful environment, so why not embrace this in your home styling with plenty of natural materials like timber, bamboo, jute, rattan, linen and stone. These materials provide texture and warmth while adding an organic touch to the space. Incorporate these elements into your furniture, flooring, benchtops and decor to capture the natural beauty of the area.
Add a touch of greenery
Add a touch of colour and life to your space with the addition of some carefully selected indoor plants. Not only are plants a great way to incorporate the outdoors, but they also help to improve the air quality and boost your mood. Low-maintenance plants like succulents, palms and ferns are ideal for elevating your seaside styling. Display your plants in neutral pots, woven baskets or rattan plant stands to really embody that natural, organic vibe.
Embrace natural lighting
Maximise natural light throughout your home by using sheer curtains, shutters or blinds that allow the sunlight to filter in. Large windows, skylights and mirrors can also help brighten up your space. If your home is lacking natural lighting, use this as an opportunity to incorporate statement lighting and fixtures instead. Rattan pendant lights, linen lampshades and even brass fittings are perfect for creating a brighter space while also adding to the coastal aesthetic.
