Santa Monica Style: Fresh Coastal Interiors for the New Year
Posted on January 12, 2026
A New Year often encourages Santa Monica homeowners to rethink how their homes capture the Pacific light. From the high-end estates in Pacific Palisades to the modern lofts in Venice, the start of the year is about “Coastal Resets”—refreshing the airy, open-concept interiors that define California living.
Why January is the Month for Interior Refreshes
In Southern California, our “winter” is mild, but the start of the year still brings a desire for clean slates. Homeowners in Brentwood and Ocean Avenue use this time to refresh high-traffic areas and modernize their “California Cool” aesthetics before the spring rush.
Maximizing Coastal Light
- Great Rooms: That bridge the gap between indoor and outdoor living.
- Master Suites: Using “Eco-friendly” paints for a healthy sanctuary.
- Accents: Using “Ocean-inspired” colors to create depth in Pacific Palisades homes.
Santa Monica’s Sustainable Palettes
Sustainability is a core value in our community. We see high demand for Zero-VOC and Eco-friendly paints in Santa Monica and Venice. Colors often focus on “Soft Sand” whites and “Vapour” greys that reflect the beachside environment.
