Brian Hettinger

Brian earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Interior Design from The Design Institute of San Diego. Over the past 20 years, he has worked closely with clients on various projects, from intimate spaces to large-scale designs. His approach to design begins with a detailed consultation to understand his client’s vision and culminates in creating an interior that is both aesthetically pleasing and deeply comforting. Drawing upon his wealth of experience, Brian expertly blends color, texture, proportion, and balance to craft spaces that are not only functional but harmonious.

Brian’s design philosophy centers on transforming everyday environments into sanctuaries: places to escape, unwind, and recharge. Whether crafting a serene spot for quiet reflection or designing inviting spaces for gatherings with loved ones, his goal is always to create a retreat from the stresses of daily life.

Originally from a small midwestern town, Brian stays connected to his roots by exploring the natural beauty of the Bay Area. He finds inspiration in the region’s stunning parks, expansive beaches, and tranquil wooded areas, all of which continue to fuel his passion for creating peaceful, nature-inspired interiors.
