California Casual

Your design style is California Casual!

You love an effortlessly styled space, lean more towards airy spaces, and believe there’s no such thing as too much white-oak wood.

California Casual (or California Cool) is a light and airy design style that is both relaxed and effortless.

This style is notorious in the West Coast, as local Californians and celebrities alike traded the glitz fixtures and shiny rhinestones for a look that was more subtle, relaxed, and effortless.

Cali Casual interiors are known for their neutral color palette while incorporate natural textiles and textures inspired by the coast. Think worn linen, rattan or cane, dried desert plants, and wood (primarily light or white-washed woods in order to keep the space feeling light and airy). They also normally have a unique piece of furniture, architect, or structure, like an octagonal coffee table or a leather sling-back accent chair. This adds to the “cool” and “effortless” style.
