Coastal Retreat Collection

Memory Lane…

Coastal Retreat is a deeply personal exploration of connection to the moana (ocean), inspired by cherished childhood memories of whānau weekends at Maketu. Days spent barefoot in the sand, climbing over sun-warmed boulders, gathering seafood, and diving beneath rolling waves form the foundation of this design. These moments bring forward the scent of salt and the rhythmic pull of the ocean — a reminder of harmony within nature and a connection to Tangaroa.

This pattern translates those memories into a layered visual language of flowing movement and gentle complexity. Organic forms inspired by seaweed drift across the surface, while sand dollars, bubbles, and micro sand textures create subtle depth and detail. The colour palette—deep purple, sky blue, light sky blue, light sea green, pastel orange, pastel pink, soft orange, and cream—mirrors the shifting tones of sea, sky, and shoreline.

Coastal Retreat is an evolving reflection of place and memory, designed to bring a sense of calm, nostalgia, and coastal beauty into everyday spaces. Explore the full design and shop the collection on Spoonflower to bring this tranquil coastal story into your own home.
