Create a Hamptons Style Home

Hamptons style homes are luxurious, laid-back coastal and exquisitely detailed. If you’re looking for a style that is timeless and will never date, whilst also continuing to have a fresh look, then the Hamptons style is perfect for you.

You can swap between a modern Hamptons home, a traditional Hamptons home or a more provincial style Hamptons home by your choice of colour palette (think tiles), lighting and statement pieces, such as your bathroom vanity.

Our interior designer has done the hard work for you and curated a beautiful Hamptons-approved collection.

How to create a Hamptons style home:

  • Keep it simple – the space should feel expansive and uncluttered
  • Invest in big windows with beautiful sheer curtains to let in natural light and add a touch of greenery
  • Use light paint colours like white, pale grey and duck egg blue on walls
  • Moulded details on vanities and panelled walls really capture the Hamptons style
  • Use cool, natural finishes like stone and marble for your tiles
  • Accessorise with a splash of colour that conjures the seaside – like blue and white striped towels

Traps to avoid:

  • All white everything. White wall paint and white tiles are the right base but the space needs to be balanced with other textures and colours
  • Cheap finishes. Hamptons homes are luxury homes
  • Harsh, artificial lighting, opt for a more luxurious pendant

Hampton Style Bathrooms & Kitchens: Coastal Elegance Meets Australian Practicality

There’s something about a Hampton-style home that feels like a permanent holiday. Maybe it’s the way sunlight bounces off crisp white cabinetry, or how weathered timber accents whisper of lazy afternoons by the shore. For Australians, this aesthetic isn’t just a trend—it’s a natural fit. Our love for light-filled spaces, relaxed living, and coastal landscapes aligns perfectly with Hampton design principles. At The Blue Space, we’ve spent years refining our collections to help you capture that breezy, timeless charm. Let’s explore how to transform your bathroom and kitchen into spaces that feel both luxurious and lived-in.

Why Hampton Style Feels Like Home in Australia

Picture this: You’re sipping coffee at a farmhouse table, morning light filtering through linen curtains. Outside, gum trees sway in the breeze. This isn’t New England—it’s your Australian home. Hampton style thrives here because it balances elegance with practicality. The palette of whites, blues, and greys mirrors our beaches and skies. Natural materials like timber and stone connect interiors to our rugged landscapes. And let’s be honest—who doesn’t want a kitchen that’s as functional for Friday night fish and chips as it is for Sunday roast dinners?

Building Your Dream Hampton Bathroom

Start with a Clean Canvas

Hampton bathrooms are all about light. Think crisp white walls, like the kind you’d see in a Bondi beach house. If pure white feels too stark, try a whisper of grey or a soft duck-egg blue. These shades work wonders in small spaces, making even compact en suites feel airy. Pair them with large-format tiles from our bathroom tiles collection—we’ve got options that mimic Carrara marble without the maintenance.

The Bathtub: Your Coastal Centrepiece

No Hampton bathroom is complete without a freestanding tub. Imagine sinking into a clawfoot design after a long day—pure bliss. Our bathtubs range includes lightweight acrylic options that look like cast iron but won’t strain your floor joists. Position it under a window if you can; natural light elevates the relaxation factor.

Fixtures That Tell a Story

Tapware is where personality shines. Go for crosshead handles in polished chrome—they’ve got that vintage vibe without feeling like a museum piece. Our taps collection includes designs that pair beautifully with marble vanities. And don’t forget the shower: a rainfall head in matte black adds contrast against white subway tiles.

Storage That Doesn’t Shout

Shaker-style vanities are Hampton hallmarks. Look for soft-close drawers—they’re worth every cent when you’re hunting for bandaids at 6am. Our bathroom vanities range includes double-basin options for busy families. Top them with a pair of ceramic lamps for that “guesthouse chic” feel.

The Warmth Factor

Australians might not face New England winters, but chilly mornings happen. Heated towel rails from our bathroom heating range are game-changers. Pair them with underfloor heating (yes, even in Queensland—it’s glorious in July) from our underfloor heating collection.

Designing a Kitchen That’s Equal Parts Beauty and Brains

Cabinetry: Keep It Classic

Shaker-style kitchens never date. Paint yours in Dulux ‘Vivid White’ or try a soft grey like ‘Tranquil Retreat’ for depth. Glass-front upper cabinets let you show off Grandma’s china, while deep drawers swallow stockpots whole. Our cabinet handles range includes unlacquered brass options that develop a patina over time—perfect for that “loved for generations” look.

The Sink: Where Farmhouse Meets Function

A fireclay apron sink isn’t just pretty—it’s practically bombproof. Great for washing sandy veggies from the garden or soaking baking trays. Find your match in our kitchen sinks collection. Pair it with a bridge mixer tap in brushed nickel; the high arch makes filling pasta pots a breeze.

Benchtops That Age Gracefully

Butcher block brings warmth, but if you’re nervous about stains, try engineered stone with a marble-look finish. We’ve seen clients use ours as impromptu pastry stations, wine bars, even homework hubs—they hold up beautifully.

Lighting: Set the Mood

Pendant lights over the island are your chance to have fun. Try rattan shades for texture or milk glass globes for a retro touch. Our lighting collection includes options that diffuse light softly—no one wants glare while chopping onions.

The Secret Sauce: Blending Old and New

Hampton style isn’t about slavish historical accuracy. It’s about mixing eras so the space feels collected, not decorated. Here’s how we nail it:

  • Layer Textures: A sisal rug underfoot, linen tea towels draped over the oven handle, a timber bread board left casually on the bench.

  • Embrace Imperfection: That slightly chipped enamelware jug? It’s got more character than a perfect replica.

  • Tech Hidden in Plain Sight: Integrate USB outlets into drawer kickboards. Hide the coffee machine in a butler’s pantry lined with beadboard from our bathroom vanities range.

Real-Life Challenges (And How We Solve Them)

Problem 1: “I want Hampton but hate all-white rooms.”
Solution: Add depth with navy lower cabinets or charcoal floor tiles. Our tiles collection includes encaustic-look designs that add pattern without chaos.

Problem 2: “My kitchen faces south—it feels gloomy.”
Solution: Install under-cabinet lighting from our lighting range. Use high-gloss paint to reflect light, and choose warm-toned LED bulbs.

Problem 3: “I need kid-friendly but stylish.”
Solution: Quartz benchtops resist juice stains. Opt for drawer dishwashers (little hands can’t drop spoons into the gap below). Choose tapware with lever handles—easier for small fingers.

Why The Blue Space Gets Hampton Style Right

We’ve Walked the Walk

Remember that 1920s bungalow renovation in Newcastle? We sourced subway tiles with slight undulations for authenticity, paired with a sleek floating vanity. The result? A bathroom that feels original but works like new.

Curated, Not Overwhelming

Ever spent hours scrolling through taps, only to forget which ones you liked? Our collections are edited by designers who’ve worked on Hampton homes. Every basin, toilet, and towel rail has been tested in real Australian homes.

No Silly Questions

“Can I mix chrome and brass?” Absolutely—we’ll show you how. “What grout colour hides sand best?” Mid-grey is your friend. Our team lives for these details.

Your Next Steps

  1. Start Small: Swap out builder-grade taps for a bridge design from our taps collection. Add woven baskets to your bathroom for rolled towels.

  2. Plan Your Palette: Collect paint swatches, fabric samples, and tile offcuts. Lay them on a table in natural light—see what sings together.

  3. Visit Our Showroom: Seeing is believing. Run your hand over a shaker door’s profile. Test how smoothly drawer glides work.

Final Thought: It’s About Life, Not Perfection

The best Hampton homes have milk rings on the coffee table and sand in the shower drain. They’re spaces where kids can build Lego on the kitchen island, where you can host a spontaneous BBQ without stressing about the bench crumbs. At The Blue Space, we give you the tools to create rooms that aren’t just beautiful—they’re lived in, loved, and utterly yours.

Ready to begin? Dive into our bathroom accessories for those final flourishes, or explore kitchen sinks that marry form and function. Your Hampton-inspired haven awaits.

Frequently Asked Questions

What defines Hamptons-style bathrooms and kitchens?

Hamptons-style bathrooms and kitchens are characterised by their light and airy aesthetic, often inspired by the coastal homes of the Hamptons region in New York. The design focuses on creating elegant, timeless spaces that feel open and inviting. The hallmark features include shaker-style cabinetry, marble or stone benchtops, and neutral colour palettes of whites, soft greys, and pale blues. Large windows or ample natural light are essential to maintain the relaxed yet sophisticated vibe, and the overall design embraces both function and beauty.

What colour schemes are typical in Hamptons-style designs?

In Hamptons-style designs, the colour scheme typically revolves around light, neutral colours to create a sense of calm and spaciousness. Whites, off-whites, soft greys, and pale blues are frequently used for walls and major surfaces. These soft tones are complemented by accents in darker colours or natural materials, such as wood or stone, to provide warmth and depth. The overall aesthetic focuses on creating a serene, inviting atmosphere that mimics the peacefulness of the coast.

How can I incorporate Hamptons-style elements into my existing bathroom or kitchen?

To incorporate Hamptons-style elements into your existing bathroom or kitchen, focus on key features such as cabinetry, colour palette, and materials. Install shaker-style cabinets with clean, classic lines and add quality hardware to enhance the timeless look. For colours, use soft, neutral tones that evoke the coastal feel, and consider using marble or stone for benchtops to add elegance. In bathrooms, a freestanding bathtub and high-end tapware can enhance the Hamptons aesthetic. For accessories, consider adding nautical-themed décor or plush towels to create a welcoming, coastal atmosphere.

Are there specific materials recommended for Hamptons-style bathrooms and kitchens?

Yes, materials play a crucial role in achieving the Hamptons look. For bathrooms, freestanding bathtubs, marble or stone vanities, and high-quality tapware are often used to create a luxurious feel. In kitchens, shaker-style cabinetry and marble or stone benchtops are essential, providing both beauty and functionality. These materials contribute to the timeless elegance of Hamptons-style interiors, creating spaces that are both practical and aesthetically pleasing.

Can Hamptons-style design be adapted to smaller spaces?

Yes, Hamptons-style design can certainly be adapted to smaller spaces. While the style often lends itself to larger, more open layouts, its core elements can still create a sense of elegance and openness in compact areas. To make the most of a smaller space, use light colours and reflective surfaces to enhance the feeling of space. Maximising natural light is also essential, so consider large mirrors or glass fixtures. Space-saving designs and smart storage solutions, combined with the right Hamptons features, can make even a small kitchen or bathroom feel luxurious and welcoming.

Getting The Hamptons Bathroom Look

Obtaining the Hamptons look starts with a fresh colour palette. Common Hamptons home colours include whites, light greys, blues, and natural brown colours like timber finishes. The Hamptons look is one of elegance with a mix of coastal elements to balance the colours out.

For a Hamptons Style bathroom, fixtures and fittings will often be in a chrome, brushed nickel, or brushed brass colour. For a more traditional Hamptons look, opt for three-piece tapware. For a modern Hamptons look, go for that modern mixer tap with a Shepherds Crook.  

The bathroom vanity is often of a matte white, shaker style finish with handles to match the tapware. A beautiful benchtop often a simple white or Carrara marble finish, paired with an undercounter basin to retain a seamless and elegant look. There are often two to three styles of tiles in the bathroom. One being simple and white, and the others to bring a statement and pop of colour/style into the space. Most commonly used are subway tiles, herringbone tiles, marble tiles, and encaustic tiles.

Lighting is essential for any Hamptons Style bathroom. This style of bathroom requires natural lighting to bring a softer ambience in the space, especially when the light peaks through shutters. Add colour to the space through your accessories; from natural greenery and plants to towels and rugs.
