Take a tour around Leigh’s seaside-style home

Leigh decided to remove the glass doors that were originally between the living and dining rooms to create extra light and space. The soft leather sofa adds depth and warmth to the pale-blue walls.

Painting walls a similar colour to the adjoining room creates a sense of flow and harmony. Leigh’s traditional kitchen cupboards are painted in a bright cream to contrast against the brown brick-style splashbacks.

There’s nothing more stylish than a large dining room table in the middle of a room; it has space to breath so will really look its best. Leigh’s funky pendant light adds a relaxed feel while the cute seagull on the windowsill makes for a quirky display.

With neat modern sofas and cosy accessories, no wonder Leigh and her family spend a lot of time together in here when they’re not in the kitchen next door. Both rooms are painted in the same soothing shade of green to tie the two together.

Not many people have such a spacious entrance hallway, but luckily for Leigh she even has enough room for an accessory or two. She’s gone for a nautical style with these gorgeous lanterns to add interest to an empty corner.

A small cloakroom is the perfect opportunity to be brave when it comes to choosing wallpaper and nautical-style accessories. Leigh has chosen a funky fish design and bright striped towels to add colour and fun.

Leigh has kept her bedroom free from any nautical influences and went for floral prints instead to create a different feel compared to the rest of her home. She has invested in good-quality neutral curtains that will last for years to come, plus they’ll suit any colour scheme when it comes to redecorating.
