How to Style a Coastal Home with French Oak Flooring

1. Keep Your Palette Light and Natural

Coastal homes love breezy colors—think whites, creams, soft blues, and warm wood. Our oak floors (Limed Wash, Norway and Naturale) are the perfect base for these tones. 

2. Mix in Natural Textures

Use linen curtains, woven rugs, cane furniture, and light timber accents to create a laid-back, lived-in feel. 

3. Maximise Natural Light

Large windows, glass doors, and light-colored flooring make your home feel brighter and more open—just like a coastal retreat. 

4. Embrace Simplicity and Comfort

Coastal design is about relaxed living. Choose comfy furniture, minimal decor, and quality materials like our oak floors that last for generations. 

What Makes Coastal Home Style So Popular?

Coastal style is loved for its calming colors, natural textures, and easygoing elegance. It makes small spaces feel larger and brings the outdoors in with materials like wood, linen, and soft stone. 

French oak flooring, especially in tones like Limed Wash, Naturale, and Norway Oak, fits this style perfectly. It reflects light, feels warm underfoot, and adds timeless charm that works in any room. 

Why Coastal Style Works So Well in Australian Homes

Australia’s love for sunshine, open spaces, and nature makes coastal home style the perfect match. Our beach-loving lifestyle blends beautifully with airy interiors and indoor-outdoor living. 

Lifewood’s French oak flooring enhances this feeling by making your home feel brighter, more connected to the natural environment, and effortlessly stylish—whether you’re by the beach or in the city.
