2025 INTERIOR TREND DIRECTIONS
2025 design trends reflect a growing desire to create functional and emotionally meaningful spaces. Combining decorative styles, focusing on well-being, and appreciating craftsmanship will be central to projects that aim to shape the future.
Read on to find out how the focus of the year to come will be on crafting homes that are nurturing, enduring, and a little bit unexpected ...
Organic, rounded shapes will continue to dominate furniture and architecture in 2025 promoting a welcoming and harmonious aesthetic. Inspired by the 1960s and 1970s modernist movement, this trend has resurfaced with the demand for elements that convey balance, closeness to nature and promote relaxation. With a preference for curves over hard edges, expect to see more rounded sofas, circular dining tables, and soft-edged cabinetry – evoking a sense of calm and comfort.
With a clear prioritisation on comfort within the home you can expect to see plush, deep sofas, cushioned armchairs, upholstered bedheads and soft rugs. Cozy, tactile materials like velvet, boucle and wool will be popular. Whether through spaces designed to add ease to daily rituals or through silhouettes that are more laidback, this balance of elegance and ease is reflected in dining areas and living rooms where shapes that invite comfort and a softer, more relaxed environment are key.
(banquet dining?)
A focus on wellness and mindful living within the home has gained momentum in 2025 with the concept of wellness in design expanding beyond the obvious, like home gyms and saunas. Think about spaces that encourage mindfulness, relaxation, and stress reduction. This includes creating cozy, soft corners with plenty of texture, ambient lighting, and quiet nooks for reading or meditation.
Expect the rise of natural, non-toxic materials that enhance physical well-being – like natural linens, organic cotton, clay plasters, beeswax candles, and other materials that purify indoor air.
Incorporating greenery into indoor spaces supports this ethos and continues to be a key trend for 2025 with a stronger focus on blurring the lines between indoor and outdoor spaces.
As clay-based products and natural plasters are being rediscovered for their tactile appeal and environmental benefits, materials like raw clay, terracotta tiles, and natural stone will be used in everything from flooring to wall art to accessories, adding a rustic yet contemporary touch to spaces.
Flexible and multifunctional spaces are set to become one of the most striking interior design trends in 2025. With new demands to living spaces, especially with the rise of remote working, the search for dynamic areas that can change with daily use continues to influence contemporary design. As such, for 2025, spaces should be designed to adapt to different daily needs, such as areas that combine work, rest, and leisure functions. This includes modular furniture, movable partitions, and open areas allowing constant rearrangement.
Just like 2024, brown will continue to have a major moment in 2025, offering endless versatility and a connection to nature. There are so many shades to play with, and it can act as a soft neutral or a rich moody tone - contributing to the rise of cozy, comfortable interiors with their grounding and calming influence. Clay-toned browns are also coming through, which bring natural warmth and feel very connected to the earth.
In addition to brown hues, earth tones are set to dominate interiors in 2025. Shades like deep burgundy, navy blue, saturated greens, and terracotta will be prominent, adding depth and sophistication to spaces. Soft greens and muted blues are also becoming very popular, as these colours are associated with wellness and a sense of calm. Darker, moody earth tones, like chestnut brown and moss green, are predicted to crop up in both residential and commercial spaces.
Clients are increasingly drawn to pieces that are more than just functional—they want statement pieces that shape the entire room. Lighting brings everything together and can set the tone in a way few other elements can. We’re seeing minimalist fixtures with sculptural forms—think lighting that doubles as art.
Maximalism & Eclectic Interiors
Interiors in 2025 explore contrasts and layers, combining materials and textures to create visually rich and tactile spaces.
Inspired by maximalism and the need to make spaces more sensorial, this trend focuses on mixing fabrics such as linen, velvet, and leather with wood, marble, ceramic, or textured glass surfaces. The idea is to create layers that stimulate the senses...
Bold Colours & Patterns
The minimalist trend that dominated the 2010’s is slowly being replaced by maximalism. Expect vibrant colour schemes, layered textures, bold patterns, and a mix of styles. People will embrace individuality and personal expression in their interiors creating spaces that reflect their own personality, lifestyle, and cultural heritage.
Vintage & Antique Fusion
Mixing old and new pieces will become even more popular, with people curating unique, one-of-a-kind spaces. Vintage furniture paired with modern design elements creates a sense of warmth and personality.
Art Deco Revival
A focus on glamour and luxury sees a rise in Art Deco-inspired interiors characterized by geometric shapes, bold colours and luxurious materials like marble and glass, and metallic finishes such as gold, chrome, and brass. Expect more luxurious, refined spaces with opulent details and furniture with classic bones.
