Combining thoughtfully layered blues, greens and earth tones drawn from the seaside landscape with natural textures like jute, rattan, and wood elements creates truly timeless coastal designs. There is no “one and only” coastal style —inspiration can come from New England’s rocky shores, the southeastern coast’s dunes and salt marshes, or the Gulf of Mexico’s brilliant white “sugar-sand” beaches. the coastal design style is chic, modest, calming, and classic.
When it comes to surfacing for your coastal style design project, whether commercial or residential, we have you covered with a range of gorgeous ceramic, porcelain, glass, and natural stone tiles in sand-, sea-, and sky-inspired hues.
Sea & Sky
For the ultimate beachy vibe, there’s nothing more evocative of the coast than hues that echo the movement of sea and sky. We offer a plethora of tile collections from across the blue- to blue-green spectrum to help you bring your coastal designs to life.
