Old Florida style developed between the 1920s and 1960s, characterized by single story cottages and ranch homes built to respond to the coastal climate. Pecky cypress paneling, beadboard walls, painted wood floors and an understated nautical influence defined the interiors. The aesthetic was practical but never plain. Rattan, cane and wicker furniture, collected art and ceramics, open shelving and a palette pulled from the landscape, soft greens, blues, whites and weathered wood. Spaces felt comfortable and lived in, not decorated. What makes Old Florida interiors so compelling is their sense of ease. They prioritize light, texture and a connection to the outdoors without ever feeling forced.
