“This aerie corner retreat overlooking the sea manages to channel a nautical vibe without veering into twee territory...” (Julie Carlson, Remodelista EIC)
Grain sack pillows, a rag rug, stool bedside table, antique trunk, and nautical accents come together to compose a quaint, humble costal bedroom.
HED intentionally mixed textures; from pick-stitch quilts to heavy linens, and metal framed beds, to create depth within the space.
The room was ideated and executed under the design statement: “This beachfront house was built in 1935. Metal platform twin beds for guests hold a casual assembly of linen and cotton stripes. Boards with hooks line the room and the utilitarian metal wall sconces hang next to each bed. A painted-wood chest and stool from nearby antiques shops serve as bedside tables.”
While this room looks as if it was pulled from a magazine, you’d be surprised to know all elements, with the exception of the custom window treatments, can be found in retail shops, making the space accessible and attainable for most.
This room took home the award for “Best Professionally Designed Bedroom” in the 2014 Remodelista Design Awards, chosen and awarded by Julie Carson, Remodelista Editor in Chief.
