Les villas de Nice sont des édifices de villégiature d'hivernants qui présentent une ou des références stylistiques architecturales depuis son annexion en 1860.
L'architecture édilitaire locale (gare, lycée, préfecture, églises, poste ...) s’inspire principalement des oeuvres de styles français. À part quelques courants minoritaires (gothique et orientale) et sans lendemain, la majorité des bâtiments privés puisent leurs modèles dans le riche patrimoine de la Renaissance italienne et cela jusqu'en 19391.
Après la Seconde Guerre mondiale, l'italomanie est remplacée sur la Côte d'Azur par le style néo-provençal.
