Specializing in curated furniture packages, full-service interior design, and items to enhance any interior space. Southern Palms offers a coastal-inspired online shop and a showroom at 25405 Perdido Beach Blvd. Suite 9. The store focuses on providing exceptional coastal décor. 

 

Freda Butler, owner and lead designer at Southern Palms, has a special appreciation for textiles, stating, "We really, really love pillows." Pillows and throws are a major part of their offerings.
