Coastal Luxury FAQs
-
Our Coastal Luxury products are primarily crafted from bamboo, metal, and wood, each chosen for their unique properties and benefits. Bamboo is renowned for its sustainability, being one of the fastest-growing plants on Earth. It provides a lightweight yet sturdy structure, offering both durability and a sleek appearance. Metal components often complement bamboo, adding structural stability and a modern touch. Wood, particularly recycled and rustic varieties, introduces character and a sense of history to each piece. These materials combined present a harmonious blend of natural elements that contribute to a relaxed, coastal vibe, perfect for a serene home environment.

To preserve the longevity and beauty of Coastal Luxury products, it is essential to keep them indoors in cool, dry environments. Specifically, items like the Drum Tables Bamboo Set of 2 White Wash and the Coastal Planters S/2 should be stored away from moisture and humidity, as the timber is not sealed. Dusting the items regularly with a soft cloth will help maintain their cleanliness, while avoiding harsh chemical cleaners will protect their delicate finishes. For the white washed products, be mindful that the finish can have variations in opacity, which adds to their charm. As for benches like the Bench 120cm W/Wash, ensuring even weight distribution and avoiding overly heavy loads can help maintain structural integrity.

The uniqueness of Coastal Luxury products stems from their materials and craftsmanship. Items like the Bench 120cm W/Wash are made from rustic and recycled timbers, ensuring that no two pieces are the same. The variations in texture, finish, and hue give each product a distinctive appearance and character. Furthermore, the bamboo products are often handmade and feature the natural imperfections of artisanal crafting, such as different finishes and translucency variations in the white wash. This authentic, handcrafted feel imparts a sense of individuality and charm to each product, making them more than just furniture pieces, but also unique works of art.

While the coastal theme of these products may suggest outdoor use, it is generally recommended to keep them indoors. For instance, the Drum Tables Bamboo Set of 2 White Wash and the Coastal Planters S/2 are designed to be cherished indoors. The bamboo and wood materials used in these items are not sealed and can be adversely affected by moisture and extreme weather conditions. However, if you wish to use them in outdoor settings like patios or balconies, it is crucial to bring them indoors during adverse weather and store them in dry conditions to prevent damage and preserve their exquisite craftsmanship.

To ensure the longevity of your Coastal Luxury products, proper storage is key. These items should be kept in cool, dry places, away from excessive moisture and direct sunlight, which can cause wood and bamboo materials to warp or fade. Products like the Bench 120cm W/Wash and the Drum Tables Bamboo Set of 2 White Wash should be placed in environments that maintain stable temperatures and humidity levels. Avoid storing them in basements or attics where temperature fluctuations are common. When not in use, covering the items with breathable fabric covers can help protect them from dust and light exposure, preserving their aesthetic appeal.

Sustainability is a core principle in the Coastal Luxury category. Many products, such as the Bench 120cm W/Wash and smaller items like the Bench 78cm W/Wash, are crafted using recycled timbers and bamboo, which are eco-friendly materials. Bamboo is particularly sustainable due to its rapid regrowth and minimal need for pesticides. By repurposing wood and utilising bamboo, these products reduce waste and the demand for fresh timber, contributing to a more sustainable future. This commitment to sustainability not only reflects in their eco-friendly materials but also celebrates the natural beauty and uniqueness of each handcrafted piece.

Flooring plays a huge role in the look and feel of a coastal house. To evoke a comfortable, laid back coastal home the addition of rugs is pivotal. For those softer flooring options, texture is key.

The key to getting your coastal luxury look right is by adding a range of textures and soft furnishings. With the addition of fresh linen cushions or woven seagrass cushions you can build up the coastal feel.  Natural fabrics are preferred in coastal homes; think linen, wool, and cotton when it comes to pieces such as bedspreads, cushions, ottomans and wall hangings. Natural fabrics are a must for their worn-in look that adds to the beach feel of the coastal home. Chunky knit throws are a necessity in the modern coastal home to inject not only texture but also the feeling of comfort. Layering your textures with textiles that include details such as tassels, pattern and embroidery will create a sense of depth to the look and feel of the coastal home and will create an inviting feel to the space.
Furniture pieces are great to add a focal piece to your design. Shop our range of furniture in natural materials to enhance the coastal look. If you wish to achieve a point of difference in your pieces, we would opt for materials such as rattan, bamboo, and wood for your furniture.
Coastal luxury is represented by open airy spaces perfect for relaxing, therefore utility should be considered. Think about how the room can be used and items that can pull it all together. To lend a cozy, lived in vibe go for items such as bookshelves, desks, baskets, drink trays and side tables. These items are also perfect to inject the natural materials that a coastal home needs.
A good way to breakup your solid white theme is to add texture to hard surfaces. This could be done in terms of a washed look, or even through embossed texture. Here at LaVida we offer a range of pieces that incorporate a washed look or otherwise there are pieces with shell mosaic patterns that will add a luxurious look.
To add that laid back comfort look consider layering textures. Think jute rugs, linen cushions and knit wool throws. A coastal home aims to be inviting and these comfort pieces can be sourced in coastal colours
