Hotel calm with ocean views

This composition pairs the ordered feel of a hotel interior with the openness and softness of the ocean. It typically uses stone, light wood, linen, glass, and subtle metal details to keep the space clean, serene, and refined. The palette leans toward white, sand, pale blue, sea green, and muted gray.
