INQUIRE

Palm Beach style originated in the early 20th century in Palm Beach, Florida, a coastal town that became a popular winter retreat for the wealthy elite, especially during the Gilded Age. This design aesthetic reflects the glamour and luxury associated with the region's affluent lifestyle. Palm Beach design was also heavily influenced by Mediterranean Revival and Art Deco styles, known for its bright colors, ornate details, and tropical motifs.

Here's how to express your style...

In a Palm Beach home, interior details are defined by its vibrant aesthetic, tropical influences, and luxurious elements. Expansive windows, arched doorways, decorative shutters, covered verandas, high ceilings, elaborate cornices, and contrasting colored trim create an opulent tropical design that emphasizes the importance of indoor-outdoor living, especially for homes in coastal areas.

Interior Finishes

Palm Beach interior finishes are vibrant and inviting, showcasing a lively color palette, tropical influences, and luxurious materials. Light hardwood flooring, grasscloth wallcovering, and rattan furniture bring warmth, while bright colored paint & coastal patterned wallcovering bring a tropical feel. Luxurious finishes like mother of pearl, sea glass, and polished porcelain tile floors bring a shine to the space.

Lighting reflects the vibrant, playful, and sophisticated lifestyle. From elegant chandelier lanterns detailed with lattice and palm leaf motifs to scalloped lamp shades with bamboo bases, each fixture has its own character.

Palm Beach decoration aims to evoke a sense of relaxation and joy, with bold colors, patterns, and textures. Pillows are key to bring more pattern into the space, while artwork brings a bold statement. Woven mirrors, seashell boxes, and mother of pearl trays bring texture, while palm leaves, driftwood, & coral bring a natural tropical element.
