Seaside Chic: Coastal Inspiration for Oak Kitchens
Beautiful kitchens come in many forms. We know – of course – that our stunning oak kitchens are unquestionably attractive. By combining hard-wearing solid wood worktops, oak cabinetry and wooden cabinet frontals, Solid Wood Kitchen Cabinets™ allows you to create a kitchen that is not only visually appealing but is also built from superior-quality materials (all of which are designed to stand the test of time). Before ordering your kitchen components, it is likely you will have decided on the style of interior you would prefer. If yours is a coastal home – or you want to experience seaside holiday vibes all year round – then do keep reading: we’ve collated an image gallery that is full of holiday vibes and fresh colour palettes, all of which are sure to delight and inspire you!
Pale blue cabinetry with white worktops looks bright and fresh, whilst the worn wood flooring is reminiscent of a ship.
Blue and white striped bar stools add a splash of colour to this all-white kitchen, and remind us of nautical-inspired beach towels!
Industrial pendants capture the feel of the masthead lamps and oil lanterns used on old ships, and are well-balanced by metal stools in this coast kitchen.
We love the delicate blue-grey shade of paint used on these cabinets. For a similar effect, why not try Parma Gray by Farrow & Ball? Tongue and groove panelling is also a great choice for seaside settings.
Blue is a traditional choice for coastal colour schemes – we like how the owners of this beautiful home have branched out into a green and grey palette for their kitchen. Grey cabinet fronts are very easy-on-the-eye, helping create a relaxed holiday ambience.
This laid-back kitchen is perfect for both coastal and countryside settings. The white cabinets and oak work surfaces create a versatile look that can be altered subtly with accessories. Opt for tongue and groove end panels to enhance your seaside-inspired look.
These gorgeous striped chair covers are perfect for creating seaside vibes, and are a great choice for laid-back dining.
The owner of this kitchen has opted for deep blue painted cabinetry paired with contrasting white units, whilst the timber floors remind us of natural driftwood. A stainless steel splashback and stove give this room a contemporary twist.
To keep your kitchen looking smart and up-to-date, team crisp white cotton with soft, slouchy fabrics on your furnishings, and pair fresh whites and blues with gentle shades of brown and cream. Blue, white or grey enamel kitchen canisters work wonderfully well within this aesthetic, whilst blue and white striped rugs add a touch of nautical cool. Unless you want to introduce a theme rather than a design style, we recommend avoiding model boats and anchor motifs!
