There was a time when beach cottages in La Jolla all rested beneath redwood shingled roofs, and according to San Diego News, you could rent one for the small sum of $9 a month. These serene seaside escapes from the 1800’s are now treasured historic gems, in part because they mark one of the earliest stylistic trends in La Jolla real estate.
According to the article, these lovely cottages had several signature elements, including quaint front porches, low gabled roofs, stained glass windows and cozy fireplaces. Gardens graced these picturesque beachside properties that were only accessible via winding paths. Star pine trees set the scene, while simultaneously serving as landmarks in a tranquil place with ample dirt roads, but no street signs.
Modern luxury homes in La Jolla boast contemporary styles with just as much character as the beach cottages of old. Some décor trends noted in La Jolla’s luxury homes have stood the test of time, while others burst into prominence and then wane with the changing seasons. There is marked appeal in both longer term and seasonal home décor styles in La Jolla and around the world.
The National reported that the latest international fall décor trends are indulgent, yet sophisticated efforts to gradually move away from minimalism. Dark, bold colors contrasted with cool neutrals are on the rise. Jewel tones, indigo and lots of gray interplay with wood, stone and marble elements to create simple, elegant living spaces. Clean lines contrasted with patterned and textured fabrics are also gaining décor ground. In addition to this, refined artwork emboldened by warm colors graces living spaces that also incorporate charming natural elements.
Luxury homes in La Jolla have a signature style that has evolved over the years into something incredibly rare, but enduring. Autumn décor styles come and go every year, adding value that is rich, but finite. When the two come together, it’s a powerful combination that is truly captivating.
