When homeowners rebuild after wildfire, interior design decisions can feel overwhelming. There are countless options, competing styles, and pressure to make choices quickly — often before there’s space to fully imagine how a home will feel once it’s lived in.
One of six Interior Design Collections – Our Old World interior design collection was created to offer clarity and comfort during that process. Rooted in warmth, craftsmanship, and timeless detail, this collection is designed to feel familiar, grounded, and enduring — not trendy or fleeting.
A Design Style That Feels Established, Not Staged
Old World interiors draw inspiration from traditional European homes, where materials age gracefully and spaces are designed for everyday living. Rather than sharp contrasts or highly modern finishes, the emphasis is on balance, texture, and subtle detail.
Key characteristics of the Old World collection include:
Warm, neutral color palettes
Natural materials with depth and variation
Thoughtful detailing that feels refined but not ornate
A sense of history without feeling heavy or dated
The result is an interior that feels comfortable and lived-in from the start — a place that welcomes daily routines as well as quiet moments.
Why Old World Design Resonates During Rebuilding
For many homeowners rebuilding after wildfire, the goal isn’t to replicate what was lost exactly — it’s to create a home that feels steady, familiar, and supportive moving forward.
Old World design works particularly well in rebuilding because it:
Prioritizes warmth and comfort over visual trends
Feels timeless, reducing the pressure to “get it right” stylistically
Balances beauty with livability
Creates a sense of permanence during a time of transition
These interiors are meant to settle in naturally, rather than make a statement.
Materials That Ground the Space
Material selection plays a central role in the Old World collection. Surfaces and finishes are chosen for their texture, depth, and ability to age well over time.
You’ll see:
Soft, layered finishes rather than high contrast
Natural wood tones that bring warmth to the home
Subtle variation in tile and stone selections
Finishes that feel cohesive across rooms, not compartmentalized
Together, these elements create interiors that feel calm, cohesive, and intentional.
Designed to Support Decision Relief
One of the primary goals of our interior design collections is decision relief — helping homeowners move forward without being overwhelmed by endless choices.
The Old World collection provides a clear design direction while still allowing room for personalization. It offers a foundation homeowners can trust, knowing the selections work together visually and functionally.
Rather than starting from a blank slate, this collection gives homeowners a thoughtful starting point.
A Timeless Choice for Everyday Living
Old World interiors are not about nostalgia or recreating the past. They’re about creating spaces that feel settled, warm, and enduring — spaces that support everyday life long after construction is complete.
As with all of our interior design collections, the Old World collection is designed to complement a range of floor plans and architectural styles, while maintaining a consistent sense of calm and quality throughout the home.
