Coastal Chic is all about designing a stylish beach house where comfort and elegance go hand in hand. The sun, sand, and sea set the perfect backdrop, but it’s the thoughtful details like natural, breathable textiles that truly define the ambiance.
Whether you're furnishing a summer vacation home, upgrading your Airbnb rental, or simply dreaming of the ocean breeze, the coastal chic textile (or beachy chic) aesthetic brings relaxed sophistication to every space.
And nothing completes that vision quite like sustainable, handwoven textiles from Arconiz. From Turkish cotton towels to hemp rugs and artisan-crafted throws, here’s how to transform your coastal space into a serene, sea-inspired sanctuary.
What Is Coastal Chic (aka Beachy Chic)?
The coastal chic look is more than a trend it’s a lifestyle. It blends natural textures, airy color palettes, and functional luxury to reflect the calmness of coastal living. Think warm neutrals, sandy beiges, ocean blues, and soft linens that breathe with the salty air. This timeless style appeals to homeowners who crave simplicity, authenticity, and sustainability.
An important note for trend-savvy decorators: “Beachy chic” is rising in U.S. search trends as a long-tail term, especially among younger homeowners and renters creating casual yet refined beach spaces. Whether you're in the Hamptons, Cape Cod, Malibu, or the Outer Banks, the appeal is universal laid-back luxury, naturally woven in.
Essential Textiles for a Beach House
Textiles define both the comfort and character of a space. Here are the must have sustainable essentials for your beach home:
1. Turkish Cotton Towels (Bath + Beach)

Whether stacked in the guest bathroom or rolled up for the beach bag, their breathable texture keeps you cool and comfortable. Arconiz’s Turkish cotton is woven with artisanal care and OEKO-TEX® certified for peace of mind.
2. Lightweight Throws for Breezy Evenings
As the sun dips and the breeze picks up, a lightweight throw adds just the right amount of warmth. Drape one over a patio chair or daybed to instantly elevate your space. Bonus: our handwoven throws double as travel blankets, perfect for those spontaneous beach picnics or chilly summer nights under the stars.
3. Hemp Area Rugs for Durability & Breathability

How to Style It:
- Choose hand-knotted throws or cushion covers with visible texture.
- Opt for hemp rugs that resemble fishing net patterns or coastal rope.
- Use neutral colors with muted navy or stone gray for a nostalgic but modern look.
Arconiz’s handwoven hemp and Turkish cotton beach towels fit this aesthetic perfectly designed with heritage craftsmanship that reflects both beauty and function.
