My usual go-to theme where I usually start looking for inspiration is the beach/seaside theme. However, having recently moved to a big city, I want to incorporate some urban features to make my space a little bit more relevant to my location. I think I'll try to combine these 2 styles (beach/urban) to create the right space for me.
When I think of urban style I imagine clean lines, sleek colors like grey, silver, white and maybe even some sleek patterns. I also imagine some modern pieces, like sharp-looking furniture or metallic accents.
Here are some examples of bedrooms I consider to have an urban flare:

On the complete opposite side of the spectrum, I also want to incorporate some sort of beachy accents. A beach theme can mean different things to different people. To some it can be tropical with bright colors and florals. Or it could be nautical with seashells and sand. For the sake of making the combo of my two ideas easier, I am going to focus on the blues, whites and tans and maybe a nautical pattern/accent.
Instead of going overboard with the beach theme I just want to incorporate some accents. Here are some examples of things I may want to put throughout a space to give off a slight beachy vibe:
