About this mood board
Step into serenity with this beach-inspired living room mood board, where the gentle tones of Dulux Natural Calico anchor a palette of sand-swept neutrals and airy coastal blues. Inspired by the soft lapping of waves, driftwood textures, and the dreamy blend of sea and sky, this scheme evokes the natural beauty of a seaside escape.
From the woven textures reminiscent of dune grasses and wooden gates to the ocean-toned upholstery that mirrors tranquil waters, every element channels a calm, coastal energy. Layered with tactile softness and sun-kissed accents, this look offers a grounded yet breezy atmosphere—perfect for creating a relaxing retreat right at home.
