Designers’ Choice of the Month: April

Designers’ Choice of the Month: April

Fort Myers residents with an eye for local design and home aesthetics will want to take note of this month's "Designers’ Choice." Each April, local interior designers and home decor experts highlight a particular trend or item making waves in Southwest Florida homes. This initiative aims to inspire homeowners and support local businesses.

For April 2026, the spotlight is on sustainable outdoor living spaces. Local designers are emphasizing durable, weather-resistant furnishings made from recycled materials, along with native plant selections that thrive in our climate and require minimal irrigation. The focus is on creating comfortable, eco-friendly extensions of indoor living, perfect for enjoying Fort Myers' beautiful weather.

Several local businesses along the palm-lined McGregor Boulevard and in the historic downtown River District are featuring these sustainable outdoor living options. Residents can visit these stores throughout April to see examples and get expert advice on incorporating these choices into their own homes. This monthly feature provides a valuable resource for those looking to refresh their living spaces with a local touch.
