COASTAL COOL
Not to be confused with kitschy nautical decor, coastal cool reflects the same natural elements that can
be admired through your expansive oceanfront windows. When designing a home, Pure Salt Interior
co-founders Leigh Lincoln and Aly Morford focus on flow, color, texture and greenery to create a space
that’s at once aesthetically pleasing, functional and representative of the family that lives there.
OPPOSITE PAGE AND THIS PAGE, LEFT AND TOP RIGHT;JESSICA ALEXANDER/COURTESY OF PURE SALT
It’s important to keep the flow of a space open, according to Lincoln and Morford, whose firm recently
moved to bigger digs in Newport after being based in Laguna for three years. For homes that don’t have
an open-concept floor plan, a similar effect can be achieved by removing as much clutter as possible, as

this will instantly make the room feel much larger and airier.
COVER POSITIONS PER ISSUE
Pure Salt Interiors often employs materials like marble and limestone, linens, light woods (especially
oak), handmade tiles, jute rugs and woven woods. “We also love playing with all kinds of texture,” says
Lincoln, pointing to rugs, pillows and window treatments in an array of fabrics as a great way to layer.
“And keep[ing] the color palette simple—whites, beiges, soft grays and greens—will help achieve that
relaxed, coastal look,” she says.
Another great way to bring the outdoors into any space is with green plants. “They add such a breath of
life to the space,” Morford says. “Some of our favorites include banana leaves, fiddle-leaf figs, olive trees,
ficus alii—[also called] Amstel King—and triangle ficus.
