2. Combine warm neutrals with coastal blues

3. Set for conversation

Spaces for entertaining and conversation are an essential part of Hamptons style. Set comfortable, upholstered couches  facing each other with room to move but close enough for relaxed conversation. Accent chairs and rugs that zone an area within the floor plan also strengthen the Hamptons feel.
