Natural Light in Coastal Style Interior Design

Natural light plays a pivotal role in coastal style interior design, enhancing the overall ambiance and creating an inviting atmosphere. Large windows and glass doors are often utilized to maximize sunlight exposure, bringing the outdoors in. This not only brightens the space but also emphasizes the connection to nature, making rooms feel more expansive and airy. Incorporating reflective surfaces can further amplify the light, creating a warm and welcoming environment that embodies the coastal spirit.
