Best Interior Decorators in California

Decorating in California is defined by light, ease and an unusually strong indoor–outdoor way of living. Across the state — the hills and canyons of Los Angeles, the coastal towns of Orange County and San Diego, the Bay Area and beyond — the emphasis falls on relaxed, layered interiors that make the most of natural light and frame the view, whether that view is the ocean, a canyon or a city skyline. The state's decorators draw on a rich design heritage, from Hollywood Regency glamour and mid-century modernism to breezy coastal and warm California-casual looks, and on a deep local trade of showrooms, makers and vintage sources.

California is also a market where furnishing and styling carry real weight in their own right: a large, active luxury real-estate scene means home staging and turnkey furnishing are well-developed services, and many owners — including seasonal and industry clients — want a home furnished, styled and ready to live in. This guide lists interior decorators and furnishing specialists by city, so you can find someone who knows your area's homes and can source locally. Choose a city below to see the decorators serving that market, or open a firm's page to learn more. Listings reflect each business's public presence rather than paid placement, keeping the guide a straightforward way to find the right person to furnish and style a California home.
