Hi Chad, Without a brief I have 3 tile suggestions for your beach side apartment...from Delorenzo Tiles. Tiles are the perfect flooring for a beach residence. Before laying you will be required to insulate for noise dampening depending if you have an apartment below. #1 Legni Legni is a porcelain tile which has been screen printed with a glaze to create a unique effect. Legni has the appearance of a washed timber floor tile and each colour contains a random mix of 8 patterns. Available in a range of pastel colours, and 3 sizes, this product is unique in its manufacture and also its design. matched with white walls It screams beach to me!! FUN!! #2The Carpet collection replicates warm fabrics and carpet textures. Suitable for wall or floor applications. Adding a texture to create a feeling of the Casaba! You could overlay with bright colours to create your personal style. #3 Geotech is a series of full body porcelain tiles made with ink jet technology. The inspiration for this series comes from Madeira, an island off the coast of Africa. Formed by volcanic activity, one of the island’s notable features is a special stone that has the appearance of fossilised wood. This series combines the markings that are typically found in natural stone, with unique colour combinations.

I love shades of blue through to green, so I'd take my cue from the deep green-blue throw rug in the Adairs photo. Preferably in a different fabric to velvet to mix up textures a bit. I do like the Morgan and finch diamond cushion too, if you prefer a more colourful option.

Choosing a pool finish has been super stressful because once its done its done! Also, it is so hard to determine what a color will look like given the amount of light, depth of the pool, and surrounding landscape. I think I have finally narrowed the selections down to Ocean Blue Pebble Sheen and Midnight Blue Pebble Tech. Does anyone have experience with either of those? Does anyone have experience with any finishes that have the Shimmering Sea sparkling sea shell blend (does it make that much of a difference)? We really could go either way with the Tec or Sheen. It mainly comes down to color. Any advice and photos would be greatly appreciated!

I’d forget feature walls. They are dated and not Hamptons. If you love the blue why not use it throughout even consider 1/2 and 1/4 strength.
