Top 5 Bay Area Design Trends 2025

We asked designer, Pacific Edge team member, and proud small business owner Robyn Mironov to cue us in on the design trends that are hot now, and will endure later. Here's what she had to say:

The Bay Area has always been a trendsetter when it comes to design, and 2025 is no different. This year, it’s all about creating spaces that feel warm, natural, and effortlessly functional. Whether you’re refreshing a single room or rethinking your whole home, here are the top trends shaping interiors across the Bay Area.

1. Bringing the Outdoors In

Biophilic design is still going strong, and for good reason—who doesn’t want a home that feels like a peaceful retreat? Think big, leafy plants, living walls, and natural materials like stone and wood. Soft, natural lighting is a must, with sheer curtains and well-placed mirrors helping to brighten things up. The goal? A space that feels organic, calming, and totally in tune with nature.

2. Sustainable (and Stylish) Materials

Eco-friendly design isn’t just a buzzword—it’s becoming the standard. More people are choosing reclaimed wood, recycled fabrics, and non-toxic finishes to create beautiful spaces that are as good for the planet as they are for everyday living. Vintage and upcycled furniture are making a big comeback, proving that sustainable choices can still be stylish and full of personality.

3. Homes That Evolve With You

Adaptable design is taking center stage, and it’s all about making homes work for the long haul. Features like wider doorways, step-free layouts, and smart home integrations are making spaces more functional without sacrificing style. Modular furniture, hidden storage, and flexible layouts ensure that homes can shift and change as life does—whether that means accommodating a growing family, working from home, or just making life a little easier.

4. Warm, Earthy Color Palettes

Cool grays and stark whites are taking a backseat to richer, earthier tones. Think deep greens, warm browns, soft terracottas, and neutral shades that create a cozy, inviting vibe. These colors pair beautifully with organic materials like linen, wool, and handmade ceramics, adding texture and depth without feeling overdone.

5. Minimalism, But Make It Cozy

Minimalism isn’t about empty spaces—it’s about intentional ones. The new take on minimal design is all about warmth, personality, and thoughtful curation. Instead of stripping things down to the bare essentials, people are embracing handcrafted pieces, layered textures, and meaningful decor. Smart storage solutions and multi-functional furniture make it easy to keep things clutter-free without feeling cold or impersonal.
