2025 Design Trends

Designing a home that mirrors your personal taste — and is equally comfortable and stylish — should always be the top priority. Following current trends can help you achieve this while also creating a timely, modern living space.

Of course, you can’t forget the classic decor and timeless interior design themes. There are also certain design styles that can last for decades. From colour schemes and midcentury modern, to interesting textures and inspiration from nature, there are so many different ways to personalize your home and keep it that way for years to come.

Curves Are Here to Stay

The love affair with curved furniture continues into 2025, softening interiors with rounded edges and organic silhouettes. From crescent-shaped sofas to sculptural chairs, these designs create a sense of flow and comfort. Perfect for balancing sharp architectural lines, curves bring an inviting, human touch to any space.

Vintage Meets Modern

The mix of vintage and modern styles is redefining individuality in design. It’s all about curating pieces that tell your story—whether that’s a mid-century armchair paired with contemporary lighting or an antique rug grounding a sleek minimalist room. The goal isn’t to replicate a specific style or recreate a look from a magazine but to craft a one-of-a-kind space that reflects your personality. This trend celebrates individuality and the charm of a well-loved, lived-in aesthetic.

 

Pattern Revival in Textiles

Bold patterns are making a splash on everything from upholstery to drapery. Expect graphic prints, florals, and artisanal weaves to dominate, giving rooms a lively, layered aesthetic. These textiles aren’t just accents—they’re statement-makers, bringing depth and dimension to neutral backdrops.

Natural Stone and Textured Walls

Natural materials continue to reign, with marble, onyx, and travertine taking center stage in dramatic, veined patterns. Complementing this is the rise of textured walls—think limewash, plaster, or 3D wall panels—that add a tactile element, making spaces feel rich and multi-dimensional. As you have probably already noticed, fluted wood textures are also making waves, appearing not only in wall details but in cabinetry and furniture, adding a refined yet approachable aesthetic that blends texture and warmth seamlessly.

Spa Bathrooms ("Spathrooms")

Bathrooms are transforming into personal wellness retreats. Picture freestanding tubs, rainfall showers, and calming palettes of stone and wood. Enhanced with ambient lighting and greenery, these “spathrooms” turn everyday routines into moments of relaxation and self-care.

 

The Return of Colour

After years of subdued palettes, bold colours are back in the spotlight. From deep jewel tones to vibrant pastels, colour is being used to infuse spaces with energy and character. This isn’t about one shade dominating—it’s about fearless, expressive combinations.

From Grey to Brown

Neutral tones are shifting from cool greys to warm browns, reflecting a desire for cozy, grounded interiors. Shades like mocha, taupe, and caramel bring a natural, earthy warmth that feels both timeless and fresh. Leading the charge is Pantone’s Colour of the Year, Mocha Mousse, a rich and versatile brown that pairs beautifully with both bold accents and softer tones.  Other shades, like terracotta and deep beige, further emphasize this move toward inviting, nature-inspired neutrals. 

This shift isn’t limited to walls and furnishings—flooring is also embracing deeper, brownish tones, moving away from grey-washed planks or the ever-popular lighter natural shades in favour of richer, warmer finishes that add depth and sophistication to spaces.
