Simply stated biophilic design is creating welcoming living spaces by bringing nature indoors. Biophilic design is all about weaving nature into our everyday spaces—think ocean wash ashores, seashell patterns, and airy textures that bring the coast inside. These 2025 summer coastal decor trends blend natural elements with sustainable style to boost well-being and create a calming, beach house feel. Laughing Gull Hill designs to the rescue - totally on mission with our company's mantra.
How LGH incorporates Biophilic design:
- We hand-sketch mother nature's beach wash ashores: seaweed, oyster shells, mermaid's purses, horseshoe and fiddler crabs as our central design theme
- We rigorously study where and how our 100% Belgian linen fabric and premium matte wallpaper are produced
- We not only pay close attention to the materials used we also evaluate the before and after printing processes
- We offer a color palette that is both neutral and bold - bringing the outdoors indoors
- We upcycle, upgrade and uplevel in our Studio and personal decor choices with eco-friendly approaches at the forefront
Oysters In The Water, Oysters On The Table and Now Oysters on the Wall
Casual and Captivating – relaxed coastal vibes with an unexpected allure.
Creative and Current – fresh design with timeless natural textures.
Coastal and Collected – beach-inspired yet beautifully composed.
Story behind the design: Cotuit is famous for its Oysters. So we thought it would be fun to offer an oyster pattern. The oyster is nature’s quiet masterpiece. Its clean, organic curves and layered tones—cream, gray, sand, and deep sea green—sets the stage for so many coastal forms. Each shell is a unique design. You could say it’s the shape other wash ashores build on, making the Oyster design a major 2025 Coastal Decor Trend.

Our hand-sketched, eco-friendly fabrics, wallpapers, and pillows make it effortless to bring that coastal story home.

The essentials of Coastal Decor Trends is to find what works for you. Trends can help to define your "look and feel" or "tell your story" - maybe it's something new or an unexpected color that blends in but helps highlight a special piece or a room's general functio.
Reupholstering a favorite family heirloom that isn't particularly "beachy" is a terrific way to be eco-friendly and trendy all at the same time.
Wallpaper is definitely trending and the best part of this trend is that wallpaper can transform a dull, drab, flawed and disjointed room to a Coastal wow.
