Facades

Coastal White Front Elevation Design Ideas

The coastal white elevation is inspired by seaside houses from Greece to Goa: bright salt-white textured render that reflects the sun, sea-blue painted window frames, grills, railings and front door, bleached driftwood-toned slats lining the entrance or balcony soffit, rope-and-timber details and simple white lanterns. It looks fresh, airy and relaxed. It is practical for India's long coastline, where a light facade stays cooler, and it brings a holiday mood to any independent house, villa or weekend home.

For Indian homes

In salty coastal air, use stainless steel (grade 316) or hot-dip galvanised and powder-coated metal for grills and railings, and choose an exterior coating with anti-fungal protection so white walls do not turn green in the monsoon.

How it works

  1. 1Take one photo of your room — any phone, any light.
  2. 2Pick a style, a colour or a look. Change only what you ask for.
  3. 3See the finished room in about 30 seconds, then try another.

Questions people ask

Which metal is best for grills near the sea?

Marine-grade 316 stainless steel lasts longest. Hot-dip galvanised steel with a powder coat or aluminium is a good, cheaper alternative. Ordinary mild steel rusts within a few monsoons near the coast.

How do I stop a white facade from getting algae stains?

Use an exterior paint with anti-algal and anti-fungal additives, give every ledge a drip edge, keep plants and drains from wetting the walls, and wash the facade gently once a year before the monsoon.
