Coastal Home with a Modern Lanai Design by Decorilla
Love the allure of coastal interiors? One recent client wanted seaside chic to flow from her interior to her modern outdoor lanai design. So she started a project with Decorilla to make her ideal space a reality. Read on to discover the transformation of an ordinary home into a breathtaking oasis!
The Challenge: Modern Lanai Design
The client wanted their newly built home feel tranquil and soothing. The structure had great bones, boasting a large outdoor lanai with a pool and integrated spa. But, they need help to create a comfortable, relaxed interior and matching exterior. In addition to the modern outdoor lanai design, the project involved a coastal home interior design, namely an open-concept living room and bedroom. In short, the right designer needed to:
Conceive a warm, relaxing coastal home design with a style that makes a potent visual impact
Add textural elements to some walls
Incorporate build-ins, and use a tray ceiling feature to spruce up and tie the entire space together
Include a mix of quality pieces and budget-friendly items
Compose a simple, modern outdoor lanai design that feels like a natural extension of the interior
Avoid allergy-inducing fabrics, but still make a durable and maintenance-friendly choice
Stick to the clean, crisp look with neat lines

The client’s image gallery was curated to provide interior designers with a clear insight into their ideal. This collection showcased a diverse range of lanai design examples that beautifully captured the essence of coastal living. The emphasis on specific decor elements was evident throughout, as each image highlighted contemporary touches that complement the timeless appeal of beach interior design. The color scheme was also inspired by the natural beauty of the coast, including soothing blues, sandy neutrals, and crisp whites.

The images in the inspiration gallery rendered a precise visual roadmap to understand the client’s concept. Moreover, Decorilla’s interactive questionnaire promoted effective communication with the team, allowing for clear emphasis on significant details about their lifestyle and habits. With all the necessary information at hand, two creatives with a flair for patio design created fully personalized proposals.
The client now faced the challenge of having to opt for the concept and designer they liked most. This presented a delightful but certainly not easy task, as both proposals exhibited exceptional creativity and expertise. Finally, the client picked Selma, who effortlessly ticked off all the boxes with her remarkable attention to detail and flawless taste.
In summary, Selma’s coastal home plans and moodboard effortlessly combined elements of seaside living with modern sophistication. Its creamy neutral, white, and light blue color scheme promised an atmosphere of tranquility and relaxation. Plenty of wooden elements, soft tactile upholstery, textured rugs, and clean layouts all captured the essence of coastal cottage design in an inviting, elegant, and stylish manner.
