Confortable et sophistiquée, mais un peu rétro, cette nouvelle tendance de décoration intérieure rend les objets robustes et « habités » à nouveau cool.
Even if you haven’t seen it on TikTok, you may have heard the growing buzz about “coastal grandmother” style. Similar to the granny chic and “grandmillenial” trends, coastal grandmother style is defined by textures and patterns associated with a highly curated and elegant—yet cozy—grandma’s personal style and home decor.
Coastal grandmother decor is casual and uncluttered, yet it’s where a tailored and tasteful lifestyle thrives. The style combines simple and elegant textures, like cream-colored cable knits, linen, cashmere, and canvas. Vintage decor, blue-and-white hairline stripes, simple florals, teak, neutrals, and other natural textures are also key to nailing the coastal grandmother look.
A coastal grandmother home may not be where a grandma (or even a mom) resides. Anyone can be a coastal grandmother, but the trend is especially popular among early risers, cooking enthusiasts, farmer’s market regulars, and those who enjoy sipping iced tea, coffee, or white wine on a lovely deck, patio, or porch.
If you want to bring out your inner easygoing matriarch at home, check out these coastal grandmother style ideas.
1. Retro Kitchen Appliances
Milieu du siècle appliances can infuse your kitchen with a coastal grandmother vibe. Choose toasters, coffee makers, and other kitchen appliances in creamy neutral colors, like this Smeg coffee maker. If you prefer bolder colors like red or blue, you’ll be sliding past coastal grandma into another category called Nauti Auntie.
2. Cashmere Throws
Made from the undercoat of goats, cashmere is delectably soft and naturally cozy. This makes it the perfect texture for capturing the upscale-yet-comfy sensibility of coastal grandmother style.
