Verdant Vibes
SPRING/SUMMER 2026
In Chatham Living by the Sea, Jocelyn Chiappone, owner and head designer of Digs Design Company, shares her perspective on the growing influence of green in coastal interior design. In the feature, “Verdant Vibes,” Chiappone highlights how nature-inspired hues can bring depth, versatility, and a sense of harmony to coastal homes.
“Move over, Blue! Green is having a moment,” Chiappone explains, reflecting a fresh approach to traditional coastal palettes. She shares, “We love bringing green into our interiors,” noting that the color can feel both vibrant and calming depending on the setting.
The article spotlights one of Digs’ New England living room projects, featuring pecky cypress, green trim, and green floral upholstery. As Chiappone describes, when a space reflects “the colors and textures of the world outside,” it blurs the boundary between indoors and outdoors. “The result is peaceful and cohesive.”
The feature showcases Chiappone’s thoughtful approach to coastal interior design, demonstrating how natural color, layered patterns, and locally inspired details create inviting, timeless interiors that feel connected to their surroundings.
