10 Ways: To Add Texture And Layers To Your Coastal Design

10 Ways: To Add Texture And Layers To Your Coastal Design
1. Color Tones. Decorating a room in all the same tone is a wasted opportunity. Using only one shade of a color looks flat; choose two or preferably three and mix them between rugs, furniture and paint to still achieve a monotone look.
2. Accent wall. Wallpapering or painting an accent wall a different color will add dimension and texture to the room without being overpowering.
3. Glazing. Adding a glaze to paint on the wall adds automatic texture and gives off a subtle glow when light hits it. Glaze also reflects the natural lighting in the room, creating a warmer effect.
6. Window treatments. Dressing your windows with fabric or woven blinds creates layers and texture while giving the space a finished look.
8. Weathered Wood. W Mixing in weathered coastal furniture and decor adds a natural element making it a simple way to add texture. Whether it's a reclaimed wood dining table or a great piece of driftwood displayed on the wall, wood is an effortless representation of texture.
9. Layer lighting. Having overhead lighting, , task lighting and soft tabletop lighting adds dimension to your space. Light casts shadows and adds brightness, creating layers and texture.
