Create a Hamptons Style Home

Hamptons style homes are luxurious, laid-back coastal and exquisitely detailed. If you’re looking for a style that is timeless and will never date, whilst also continuing to have a fresh look, then the Hamptons style is perfect for you.

You can swap between a modern Hamptons home, a traditional Hamptons home or a more provincial style Hamptons home by your choice of colour palette (think tiles, timber flooring & paint), lighting and statement pieces, such as your bathroom vanity or curtains.

Our interior designer has done the hard work for you and curated a beautiful Hamptons-approved collection.

How to create a Hamptons style home:

  • Keep it simple – the space should feel expansive and uncluttered
  • Invest in big windows with beautiful sheer curtains to let in natural light and add a touch of greenery
  • Use light paint colours like white, pale grey and duck egg blue on walls
  • Moulded details on vanities and panelled walls really capture the Hamptons style
  • Use cool, natural finishes like stone and marble for your tiles
  • Accessorise with a splash of colour that conjures the seaside – like blue and white striped towels

Traps to avoid:

  • All white everything. White wall paint and white tiles are the right base but the space needs to be balanced with other textures and colours
  • Cheap finishes. Hamptons homes are luxury homes
  • Harsh, artificial lighting, opt for a more luxurious pendant
