There is nothing that works better in coastal houses than white wood on the walls, and as much as we have an aversion to shiplap from seeing it everywhere, you can still do no wrong with white shiplap, tongue and groove, or board and batten inside a coastal home.” – Designer <a href="http://www.andrewjhoward.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:Andrew Howard;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas" class="link ">Andrew Howard</a><br><b>Related: <a href="https://www.coastalliving.com/homes/decorating/family-friendly-beach-house-style-tips" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:See how Andrew Howard made this family-friendly Florida beach home both pretty and practical.;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas" class="link ">See how Andrew Howard made this family-friendly Florida beach home both pretty and practical.</a> </b></p>

It is a wash of greeny-blue that reminds me of an early summer sunrise, that colour just above the pink in the sky where the morning sun is rising. It never intrudes or fights with any other colors in the rest of the scheme and looks stunning against detailed white painted woodwork.” – Designer <a href="https://www.mallyskokdesign.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:Mally Skok;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas" class="link ">Mally Skok</a></p>
