Coastal Virtual Staging

Coastal virtual staging style is white, wispy, and wonderful. You can almost smell the salt-kissed air and feel gritty sand between your toes as the waves crash in the distance, making it perfect to stage your high-end, luxury beach home for sale.

The coastal design style is tasteful, yet beachy chic, and appeals to a wide range of homeowners and buyers. Decorations such as weathered oars on the walls and rope handle on the cabinets or stairways as well as sea shells, glass bottles, or woven baskets are common decor.

This together with large windows, glass doors, and an abundance of natural light, makes the indoors meet the outdoors creating a holiday feel.

As mentioned, coastal interior design favors a lighter and natural color palette where shades of blue and whites mimic the crashing waves of the ocean.

This style is also characterized by a minimalistic, streamlined aesthetic, including natural materials and finishes, such as wood and canvas. Also, manufactured, futuristic materials, including molded plastic and chrome are common elements.

You’ll generally find furniture made of natural woods, rattan, and linen fabrics, meant to create a casual and comfortable home life. Additionally, rugs are generally straw, seagrass, or jute and natural bamboo window shades offer protection from the sunniest hours.

Not to forget the scenic, beach-inspired artwork you’ll find on the walls and strategically placed around the home, adding to the beachy chic design.

Coastal interior design has been and will be around for centuries to come because people love to use this style to decorate their waterfront, high-end beach homes.

Virtual staging is a special computer-assisted design (CAD) process whereby virtually designed furniture is added to a photo of an empty or outdated room, much like traditional home staging.

Virtual staging allows you to leverage the enormous power of visualization. It helps buyers see the potential of a property and imagine themselves living in the home.

For example, you can use virtual staging to add modern, fresh furniture and decor to empty or outdated spaces, declutter and depersonalize rooms, and perform virtual renovations, landscaping, or redecorations. There are no limits to what you can do with virtual staging!
