If there’s an interior style we can’t get enough of, it’s the lovely Hamptons. Playing within the light and airy palette of bright whites and calming blues sprinkled with rustic and coastal design aesthetics, you’re instantly transported to the relaxing East Coast of America.
Where did Hamptons-style homes originate from?
The Hamptons design style has become increasingly popular in Australian homes – and with good reason. It dates back over 200 years ago and takes inspiration from coastal holiday homes originally in Long Island, New York. This interior decorating style is now seen in many Australian homes and is popular primarily due to its relaxed coastal flair that is as elegant as it is relaxed.
What are the main design features found in Hamptons-style homes?
Hamptons-style homes almost always feature white as a popular colour of choice – seen on walls and cabinetry – to emphasise its clean and bright aesthetic. Moreover, it creates the perfect base to allow decorative elements that feature rich Ikan patterns, Chinoiserie, chintz or ocean-inspired motifs (to name a few) to shine.
So, if you’ve chosen to design and decorate with Hamptons-style for your home, picking out the main furniture pieces correctly is essential. The main furniture item in question right now? A Hamptons-style coffee table.
