You don’t have to live near the water to enjoy the relaxed vibe of the coastal design aesthetic. With inspiration from the HGTV® Dream Home 2020 on Hilton Head Island, SC, and designer Brian Patrick Flynn, you can easily transform your home into a year-round coastal retreat.

A whitewashed table tucked between two natural-colored couches extends the indoors out to an enclosed porch made from Trex decking. Pops of light blue and coral add to the easy-living feel.

No lowcountry front porch is complete without rocking chairs to while away a lazy day. The home’s blue and white color palette extends to pillows and throws of various hues and prints, two-toned siding and shutters, flanking the welcoming front door and sidelights. Modern, contrasting black hardware enhances the earthy, dark brown door.

Contemporary furnishings, such as this distressed wooden dining table, add lightness to the home. Contrasting iron chairs with deep blue cushions and brightly colored throws, napkins and plates set a stylish tone and a blue ceiling does what all good southern porches do –gives a nod to the day time sky.

This iron table makes a pleasing centerpiece and perfect spot for entertaining friends. Trex wood-composite decking in calming grey-brown tones makes a stunning canvas for the bright, tropical colors that bring energy to the room. HGTV® Dream Home 2020 honors the surrounding island life.
