Chanda Carroll’s Mediterranean oasis in Miami designed by BEA Interior Design

BEA Interior Design by Bea Pernia debuts a new Miami Beach Project this summer. A modern minimalist aesthetic inspires the interior design of this Mediterranean-style home with elements of organic and contemporary style. The interior designer creates a space that predominantly uses white and light tones with a clean and airy feel that enhances natural light and makes the house appear larger and more open.

Simple, clean lines are evident in the furniture and architectural elements, such as the arches and off-white linen curtains, creating a comfortable, minimalist atmosphere. Natural materials such as marble, micro-cement and light wood flooring add warmth and texture to the space, aligning with organic influences.

The plush furniture designs and ergonomic shapes prioritise comfort without sacrificing style, reflecting a blend of form and function. Decorative elements such as the vase, small sculptures and black accents on the furniture and lighting design provide contrast and interest without overwhelming the space. Large windows with sheer curtains allow ample natural light to flood the room, highlighting the bright interior.

Artful accessories, such as an abstract rug design and sculptural art pieces add a touch of personality and artistic flair. The view of the garden through the windows and the use of indoor plants blur the lines between the interior and exterior, enhancing the sense of tranquillity and connection with nature. Overall, the design aims to create a serene, stylish and inviting atmosphere that combines minimalism with comfort and elegance.
