Coastal Grandmother Home Decor Is Yet Another Way To Jump On The Viral Trend

From neutral-colored linen pants, button-up shirts, cozy sweaters, and comfortable-yet-chic loafers, the coastal grandmother trend is showing no signs of slowing down. If you are still not familiar with the now viral term, think of Erica Barry from the classic movie Something’s Gotta Give. Her sophisticated, casual attire has become the touchstone for those trying to achieve that “I live at the beach” look. And while dressing in this aesthetic is perfect for the summer months, what many are missing out on is the opportunity to extend the coastal grandmother look to the home.

Sara Dahl, owner of Dahlhaus Design Co says the coastal grandmother aesthetic is all about casual but thoughtful pieces that are not solely for decoration, but are intended to be used frequently. “These pieces are well-made, have a timeless design, and the materials are those found in nature – cotton, linen, seagrass, wood and clay,” she shares with TZR.

Envision, if you will, the beach house from Netflix’s Grace And Frankie. The serene home is chic, sophisticated and welcoming — filled with soft patterns and materials that give off the ultimate calming vibe (despite the raucous characters who inhabit the space). Interested in turning your own pad into a calming getaway? Here are six items you can add to your home to help achieve the ubiquitous coastal grandmother trend instantly.
