Top 5 Interior Design Style Trends of 2025
As we near the end of 2025, homeowners and designers alike are pushing beyond minimalism in new ways. There’s a renewed emphasis on warmth, texture, individuality, and comfort. Here are five of the most popular interior design style trends that are shaping the year:
1. Rich Color Palettes
The all-white or grey neutral trend isn’t completely out, but in 2025, richer tones are having a comeback. Think deep plums, moody blues, warm browns, olives, ochres, and even clay / terracotta hues. These colors add intimacy and drama and help spaces feel more grounded and personal. If this sounds like your style, try this:
Tips:
Use accent walls, cabinetry, or built-ins in richer shades to make the spaces in your home feel cozier.
Balance saturated colors with lighter, more neutral tones in complementary finishes—wood, stone or other natural elements to avoid spaces feeling too heavy.
Test paint and materials under different lighting and try using more natural lighting and lower level lighting instead of bright white overhead lights.
2. Texture & Surface Drama
Even surfaces are becoming more expressive. Smooth, flat finishes are giving way to tactile, layered surfaces—plaster finishes, textured wallpapers, bold veining in stone, richly grained woods, and matte finishes on countertops.
Tips:
Choose a custom builder who can create exactly what you’re looking for!
Specify materials carefully: plaster, stucco, or specialty wall panels will all create a different feel.
Coordinate these ideas early: textured finishes often demand more prep and craftsmanship.
3. Curves, Organic Shapes & Sculptural Furniture
Rounded sofas, arched doorways or niches, curvy mirrors, soft edged furniture are all becoming popular in 2025. These soften the interiors and make rooms feel inviting.
Tips:
When laying out plans, consider walking through the design to ensure curved forms don’t interrupt the flow.
Any space that may be too plain, might just need a unique furniture piece added, or something bigger like a curved archway instead of a traditional door.
4. Vintage & Eclectic Mix
There’s a strong pull toward incorporating pieces that feel collected or antique and then mixing that with modern pieces. Homes are becoming more personal narratives rather than showroom models. Eclectic doesn’t have to be chaotic, it can be layering textures, eras, styles—but with harmony.
Tips:
Adding vintage pieces is both sustainable and budget-friendly.
Providing flexible backdrops (walls, floors, lighting) will allow for varied furniture styles to shine without clashing.
5. Nature + Well-Being
Homes are increasingly being designed as sanctuaries. Natural materials like wood, stone, and plants are paired with modern, yet comfortable furnishings to make a home feel for human, more “home-y”.
Tips:
Maximize natural light: windows, skylights, operable large glass elements. This also helps with wellness.
Integrate outdoor living when possible: patios, decks, and sunrooms will blur the boundaries between outdoor and indoor.
Prioritize comfort in layout and furniture: built-in seating, generous upholstery, spaces for relaxation.
So,
2025 isn’t about one rigid “style” dominating. It’s about blending styles, making homes feel authentic, personal, and warm.
