Coastal Living Has a New Furniture Line (You're Going to Want It All!)
Nothing wipes away stress like stepping into a sunny beach house packed with sea views and vacation vibes. Of course, proximity to the water—nature’s balm for frayed nerves—plays a large part. But there’s something special about what’s inside beach houses, as well. From wall finishes to furnishings, the design of a great beach house is as relaxing as it is beautiful.
That laid-back but luxurious sensibility is exactly what our editors sought to capture in Escape, our new collection of living, dining, and bedroom furnishings with Universal Furniture. Every piece has coastal style in spades—even the names come from our editors' favorite seaside spots—making them a perfect fit for homes on the shore, or anywhere you crave a bit of beach house magic in your daily life.
The new line features soft colors and earthy materials inspired by our favorite coastal places. The neutral palette of finishes calls to mind coastal elements: weather-worn wood, tawny sand, and nautical blues; while natural textures like raffia, rattan, and wicker, which adorn accent pieces, ground the collection.

Upholstered pieces—sofas, gliders, ottomans, and more—are outfitted in stain-resistant Crypton Home Fabric, an essential in spaces where sandy feet and wet swimsuits rule.
