It’s time for a style upgrade, and the sophisticated model homes at Boulevard in the desirable Bay Area city of Dublin, California, are the perfect places to look for inspiration. Decorated by the pros, these homes showcase the best of the latest style trends. Browse the community photos and incorporate the style choices you love into your own home for a fresh new look you’ll love to show off.

All-white kitchens have been big for a while, but lately we’re seeing a shift toward bold, dark kitchens and high-contrast looks. The above dark wood cabinets and black kitchen island with white countertops make a powerful statement in the open-concept living area at Fillmore. And below you can see an eye-catching dark kitchen at Huntington that highlights another huge trend: natural tones in blonde wood flooring and sustainable rattan furniture. Color trends are shifting away from pastels and cool grays and towards warmer earthy tones. Plus, sustainability is always in style. Choose rattan, bamboo or reclaimed wood furniture for the most environmentally friendly options that look gorgeous too!

An easy way to upgrade a room is to add texture through a new floor rug with a daring pattern. The chunky zig-zag rug below at Mulholland is elegantly highlighted by the unique art piece on the wall that reflects a similar pattern. Bowls of succulents add a pop of vibrant green and the warm wood table creates a natural, unfussy look that makes this dining area comfortable and relaxed – perfect for sharing meals and good conversation.

For a fun twist on the accent wall, wallpaper on a bedroom’s ceiling is a striking way to level up your style. Warm earthy tones paired with neutral whites and greys, a textured rug and a wallpapered ceiling make the stylish Fillmore room below perfectly on trend. Give personality to the walls by hanging one-of-a-kind art pieces to showcase your personal collection. It’s trendy now to place art everywhere, including the kitchen and bathroom. Art in the bathroom looks great and is the perfect way to create the just-right vibe you want for your relaxing bubble baths.

The main thing is to create a space that you love to come home to, whatever that means to you. The latest trend in interior design is individuality, so go big, go bold and be uniquely you in your decorating choices. Custom items, handmade pieces, antiques you found on your last vacation – these are what will reflect your personal style and make your home truly stand out.
