South Florida Furniture Stores

Furniture stores in South Florida collectively represent one of the most assorted furniture offerings in the United States, if not the world. Furniture in South Florida is so incredibly diverse, well, because the population of South Florida itself is extremely diverse. While Miami is a well-known melting pot – featuring large populations from the Caribbean, South America and Europe – other parts of South Florida – such as Ft. Lauderdale, Boca Raton and Palm Beach – are homes to many transplants from the northeast and Canada.  With such a diverse population, it’s no surprise why there so many different furniture stores, all offering a wide variety of furniture styles.

There are two other reasons why there are so many furniture stores in South Florida. First, South Florida is home to many world-renowned designers. These designers have provided clients throughout South Florida with unique designs, tailor-made just for them. By creating demand for unique products and designs, furniture stores have sprouted up to supply the demand. Second, overall population trends have further fueled demand for furniture in South Florida. Not only has the population of South Florida grown tremendously over the last thirty years, but the amount of wealth that has been transferred into South Florida as a result of macro shifts has truly been staggering. Given furniture’s correlation to growth in the general population as well as the real estate market, it’s no surprise why there’s been such an increase in the number of South Florida furniture stores.

At SoBe Furniture, we look to supply South Florida with a vast array of modern furniture and contemporary furniture, all at unbelievable prices.

Contemporary Furniture in Miami

Contemporary furniture, as a furniture style, has proliferated itself throughout Miami and much of South Florida. But as contemporary furniture has grown in popularity in Miami, many consumers continue to ask the question: what’s the difference between modern and contemporary furniture?

In short, the widely accepted answer is that modern furniture is a static term which refers to a specific period of design (usually “Mid Century Modern”). Meanwhile contemporary furniture is a dynamic and ever-changing term which refers to furniture of “the here and now.” In practice however, contemporary furniture is typically distinguished by clean lines, gentle curves, and minimalist designs. Like modern furniture, contemporary furniture – especially in Miami, Ft. Lauderdale, Boca Raton and other parts of South Florida – heavily incorporates elements such as stainless steel, chrome, glass, and high-gloss lacquer. Specific wood finishes such as wenge, walnut, and white and specific fabric colors, such as white, gray, taupe, and black have dominated this decade’s contemporary furniture stylings.


It’s no secret why contemporary furniture has become so prominent in Miami and Miami furniture stores. Luxury condos and Miami seem to go hand-in-hand. And contemporary furniture, with its clean lines and minimalist designs, nicely complements the interiors of many of Miami’s luxury condos.


At SoBe Furniture we strive to deliver a full range of contemporary furniture at the lowest prices in South Florida. Once you see SoBe Furniture’s robust selection of contemporary furniture, we are confident that you will not only be able to design the home of your dreams, but do it within an affordable budget.
