California Casual style emerged in the mid-20th century as a response to the state’s unique lifestyle and climate. With proximity to the ocean, popularity of Mid-Century Modern style, & relaxed nature of surf culture, this laid the groundwork for the style. California Casual combines a relaxed lived-in environment with style that feels effortless and unpretentious, making it a perfect choice for those seeking a serene, yet stylish home.
A hallmark California Casual interior detail is the seamless transition between indoor and outdoor spaces by using large sliding or folding glass doors. Vaulted ceilings and exposed wood beams add interest and maintain the casual and airy atmosphere. Modern clean lines mixed with natural rustic materials create a neutral and earthy backdrop for a California Casual home.
California Casual interior finishes blend modern, rustic, and coastal design elements. Reclaimed wood is utilized for ceiling beams and cabinetry, while simplistic stone like travertine or limestone is utilized for the flooring. Textural stone focal points are found in the kitchen backsplash or fireplaces, along with black modern details. Soft textile finishes include cognac leathers paired with coastal inspired rugs.
California Casual furniture mixes clean lines with soften shapes and natural materials. As a nod to Mid-Century Modern elements, wood frame chairs with leather slings are commonly used. Comfort driven pieces such as soft linen sofas provide a space to relax and unwind. While unique side tables of stone or wood add the final modern touch.

Lighting provides an additional layer of interest to each room in California Casual design. Large accent pendants in woven wicker or unpolished metal highlight dining tables and islands. Table lamps are minimal with soft textures to fit into each space. While wall sconces in unique shapes or materials allow nods to modern or costal vibes.

California Casual decoration is all about simplicity, texture, and natural beauty. Open shelving provides clean lines to showcase the nature-inspired pieces like coastal paintings or driftwood accents. Artisanal pieces such as stone pottery or woven baskets provide an authentic touch, while rugs provide the final layer of color & warmth.
