Enhance Your Coastal Design with Interior Shutters

In West Columbia, we’re not far from the Atlantic Coast, which makes incorporating a coastal flair into our interior décor a natural desire. Fans of open spaces, natural textures, and a light color palette gravitate toward the oceanside aesthetic, and at Accent Blinds, we’re here to help you enhance your home to make the most of your taste for the salty breeze.

Right now, our favorite way to bring Myrtle Beach and Lake Murray indoors is through interior shutters. Here’s why our design team (and local homeowners) are loving them:

The Benefits of Custom Shutters

Custom interior shutters are a lot like their outdoor counterparts. They are custom-built by nature, so they are tailored to the dimensions of your windows and pair with fixtures like cabinetry, mouldings, and wainscotting (which also gives off a holistic feel). Tilt the louvers for buttery smooth operation that gently tilts incoming light for privacy and UV protection without making your windows feel closed off from the outside world. Clear view-throughs mean you don’t have to sacrifice a view of that West Columbia charm.

Incorporating Custom Shutters into Your Coastal Interior

Interior shutters are versatile and make a great investment for those looking to add some value and curb appeal to their home. With dozens of colors to choose from, they blend into just about any interior décor style you can throw at them. But the neutral colors and ability to fling open your shutters wide to let in fresh air make them particularly great for embracing that coastal feel.

Our favorite way to accomplish this is with custom wood composite shutters. Why?

• Composite wood shutters stand up to heat: Options like the Woodlore® Shutters from Norman® boast medical-grade polypropylene that withstands prolonged UV exposure and extreme temperatures, making them a solid choice for wide-open, sunny spaces and South Carolina summers.
• Composite wood shutters stand up to moisture: For bathrooms and areas that catch more of the salty wind, we’re big fans of Woodlore® Plus Shutters, which combine an eco-friendly construction and smooth operation while boasting a waterproof finish. And, you won’t have to sacrifice that classic shutter style. Despite being a composite shutter, these look like the real deal, with colors ranging from pure whites to dark grays and even black.
• Composite wood shutters are versatile: Shutters work beautifully with the neutral color palettes that define the coastal aesthetic. Pair creamy white custom shutters with refreshing light blue and green throw pillows, airy fabrics, and subtly textured upholstery to add some visual interest and create a dynamic space.
