We all love that small white cottage by the beach and often transcend to a dream of residing there. This is not just you. There is indeed something magical about these beach houses. From using wood paneling as rafters to flooring the porch, you can do a lot to make your own statement beach house.

What Do the Tones and Hues Convey

The best aspect of staying in a beach house is getting a lot of salty, balmy breeze throughout the year. You may also find yourself staring at the unending horizon at all times while stirring the soup in your kitchen. The beach houses are all statement homes by definition already. You know what to expect when you step into one. You know it will be warm and welcoming and reflect everything that defines a beach.

A point to remember is that in a beach-styled home, you need not worry about using wood. There is nothing called too much wood. So, slat panels in your kitchen and dining room ceiling is fine.

Talking of tones and hues that would complement the home, let us understand that when it comes to beautifying the already pretty beach house. There are a few thumb rules to remember. Note that the preferred primary color would be white, followed by blue and pastels, and finally, the other colors of yellow, red, and green.

When matching the tones and shades, remember that dark walnut stands out if you want a stylish and statelier touch to your rooms. It could be just for your living space or kitchen alone. If you find dark wood not to suit your breezy and calm temperament, go for something light instead. It could be a lighter shade of grey oak or white oak. These blend well with the rest of the interiors if you use white or pastel paint shades.

What Makes Veneer Slat Panels Ideal

A modern homeowner does not mind redoing his entire house just to achieve aesthetics. He would not mind spending money on the living room to look simply outstanding. This is where having a new look at the existing white walls makes sense. Try installing shiplap panels or other such panels horizontally or vertically or customizing them in wavy patterns. These would bring some mood to the room. Your walls would get an extra layer of personal touch. Then you can bring more to the slat panel décor by including them in creating a porch to sit and watch the waves outside.

Slat panels are generally very versatile and great for customization. As we already said, modern homeowners need regular changes in their home décor. So they spend time in bringing in the exact feel of a beach house to perfection.

Slat panels are great when you get the companies cut to size the panels and treat them, thereby making them ready for you to install.

Another hit point for people to go for slat panels is the ease of maintenance. Unlike regular metal or glass, these panels are easy to maintain. You need not worry if you drop or spill anything on it. Just wipe it with a wet cloth and then with a dry towel for regular maintenance. That’s enough for these panels to last long, making them a great choice for homeowners who seek value for money.

Perfection on the Grooves and Steps

If you have ever been to an American-styled beach house, you will find the porch or the sit-out area to be a definition of relaxation. You will find the space to be made with care and with a little bit of flamboyancy as well. Some may add a tiki bar outside, and others may have tropical planters to give some shade.

The others seeking that relaxation would also place a sun deck out with a small table for keeping anything from books to wine glasses or beer cans. These are ideas for your porch. Again here, you may use macrame décor pieces and even other furniture.

Cane and jute are elements most preferred for the outdoor furnishing of the home. They go well with the beige and pastel shades of paint and style. When lighting the outdoor area, you need to be extra cautious. However, if you are game for experimenting, try going for the best option available and use your creativity.

Hanging out the string lights or simply having an oil lantern to keep the décor as close to the calm beachside vibe.

Bedroom and Other Room’s Décor

Bedrooms need to spell out peace and comfort from each square inch. The master bedroom wall could be either behind or facing the bed. This style of the wall could have a Mediterranean-styled wallpaper. Many blues and greys could be thrown around on this wall color and wallpaper choice. These would bring out the serenity anytime you step in with a relaxing mood.

The wood paneling could be a great choice to make the statement wall complete. They could define when you could cut to size and make slat walls. These would even give an earthy charm that aligns with the rest of the décor.

Romance plays a key role in the design of your bedroom. You may want to not stop at anything to ensure the love flows into your life. Hence, using simple yet elegant pieces of upholstery would matter. Sheer curtains and hand-woven cotton or Egyptian white cotton rugs and upholstery might be a perfect match. Don’t miss out on using vases made with clay or stone to further tap into the natural elements in the design.

Getting the Mood Right

You might be aware of the elements, all right. But you must ensure that these rooms and décor choices can bring in perfection only if you invest in the right slat wood paneling. Do not compromise on quality or style; these days, companies like WoodPanelsUSA also present competitive designs at the right prices. Pick the right slat wall choice and bring out the best of your beach house.
