It is interesting and would be comfortable, if you were decorating a beach house. An option could be to replace all the black elements in the picture with white, if you were living near the shore.

I actively dislike that room. There is pretty much nothing that I like, at all, other than the moulding around the ceiling.

Very pretty color choices. Not very inviting to me.

Lacquer, sea stuff, African, wicker, deer, OH MY!!

There’s a lot goin’ on.

Heavy furniture...is it lacquer Asian or early American?

And I saw the deer-in-the-cabinet & immediately thought

the chandelier was an antler mix.

The chandelier looks very odd to me. The shades and orange color just are not attractive. I have no idea what is in the right corner of the room.

I guess I just don't like it.

Stunning, yet frightening.

I don't like any of the elements and do not aspire to any sort of a 'beach' theme, but the room, despite not much liking anything in it... and I mean anything... has some visual appeal. I could probably work with the orange chair and the black cabinet, though I'd have to empty the cabinet (and mantel) of all the shells...

I would refurnish it with my taste and yes, replace the chandelier!

Nope, do not like anything in the room!

I have a childhood friend who has been an avid scuba diver for decades. She & her hubby have an island home and are active in preserving marine wildlife. I think this decor would work well in an island home. I really like the orange-coral/sage color combo used.

Masculine?

Anyone notice the width of the seating area of the upholstered orange chair? Unless it's for a child, who could fit into it? Also, the side chairs look very uncomfortable with those low backs.

With those chairs, what would you do with a room like this other than look at it? Although, we can't see what's in the rest of the room. But, as it is, not a room for lounging, watching TV, or entertaining.

At first glance, the orange and black color scheme is striking and it is pretty, very well done...for a unique person who likes coral. It doesn't look beachy to me. Definitely, not for most.

That is exactly the same feeling that I had. I think I would get the creeps just spending a short time in that room.

I'm not a big fan of anything "beachy" but I find this room striking. I even like the chandlier and other orange touches.

Don't care for it at all.

I like the wall color and some of the elements in the room.

I think it's too dark and there are too many things though.

The color combo is an eye grabber, but the room is more hodge-podge than eclectic. The chandelier is a painted tree branch. The deer or antelope on display with mostly shells is odd. The thing leaning against the wall needs better placement or, better yet, removed. The mantel and cabinet are overstuffed. The wires from the lamps are an eyesore. Except for the shells in the cabinet and on the mantel there is nothing else that resembles beach, coral or island style. There is nothing inviting or comfortable about this room.

I like the black display cabinet and hate the rest.
