Embracing 2025: The Future of Interior Design: Top Trends We’re Loving

As we approach 2025 at what feels like breakneck speed, the appeal of the Slow Movement in interior design and lifestyle choices is gaining momentum. This shift merges comfort with innovation and modernity with timeless tradition. Our Color Director, Philippa Radon, travels extensively throughout the year, identifying the trends that will shape our living spaces in the year ahead.

1. English Leaning Charm

Design Trends 2025

A personal favorite of English-born Philippa Radon, this trend reflects a refined appreciation for the best in English aesthetics without veering into overly quaint cottage styles. It strikes a balance between classic charm and contemporary sleekness, with an emphasis on color and avant-garde style. The blending of vintage pieces with modern design creates a layered, eclectic look that is both stylish and personal.

2. Plush Fabrics

Prepare for an influx of cozy, "teddy bear" textures, printed velvets, and corduroys gracing everything from sofas and clothing to throws and design accessories. These plush textiles are irresistibly soft, vibrantly tactile, and add a comforting layer of warmth and texture to any room.

3. Cordless Lighting and Furniture

The future is wireless, and interior design is no exception. Expect a surge in cordless technology in 2025, offering tailored solutions that integrate seamlessly into spaces without the hassle of hiding wires or limiting outlet locations.

4. High-Resistant and Pet-Friendly Fabrics

Design Trends 2025

Innovations in textiles are catering to the realities of everyday life, especially in pet-friendly homes. Durable, easy-to-clean fabrics are on the rise, meeting the demand for materials that can withstand spills and scratches without compromising on aesthetics or comfort.

5. Unique + American-Made Brands

 

There’s a growing emphasis on supporting American craftsmanship and creativity, highlighting products that promise quality and sustainability. As large corporations continue to dominate, consumers are seeking locally made goods that keep creativity thriving and offer distinct, high-quality options.

6. Bold, Yet Harmonizing Color Palettes

C2 Paint design trends

Color trends for 2025 embrace earthy en terre hues, including shades like the C2 Paint Color of the Year Raku, dusky plums, pale lilacs, creamy mid-tone greens, and accents of muddied yellows and bronze. These colors bring a soothing harmony that complements natural elements.

“Inspired by the ancient Japanese tea ceremony, C2 Raku offers more than just color; it embodies balance, comfort, and timeless elegance. Its rich hue shifts from oxidized sanguine to dark burgundy, with subtle purple and brown undertones, creating an aura of sophistication and warmth.”

7. High-End Construction

The preference for high-quality construction materials continues to grow. Expect a shift toward durable, supportive compositions like high-density, fire-resistant foams and Tempurpedic materials, with a greater awareness of sourcing, environmental impact, and disposal.

8. Wallpaper as a Staple

C2 Paint design trends

Wallpaper is no longer just a trend—it’s a must-have. Bold patterns and textures are being used not just on walls but on accent pieces, nooks, crannies, and even ceilings. With more moisture-resistant options, wallpapers are becoming a practical choice for kitchens and bathrooms.

9. Smaller-Scale, Multi-Functional Furniture

Design Trends 2025

As urban living spaces shrink, the demand for smaller, versatile furniture is on the rise. These pieces combine style and functionality, fitting compact spaces while offering adaptability. Look for recliner chairs to get a sophisticated upgrade, making them both stylish and functional. (Grady chair by Serena & Lily).

10. Japanese Textiles and Ceramics

C2 Paint design trends

Incorporating international elements, Japanese textiles and ceramics are taking center stage. Their minimalist beauty and intricate craftsmanship underscore the desire for simplicity, quality, and timeless design.

11. Art-Filled Spaces

design trends 2025

Beyond mere decoration, art now dictates color schemes, furniture selection, and room layouts, creating cohesive environments that feel curated and intentional. Large-format prints and statement pieces have become increasingly accessible, allowing homeowners to incorporate bold, eye-catching works that instantly elevate their interiors. From abstract canvases to photographic murals, art can evoke emotion, tell a story, or reflect personal identity, making it an essential tool for creating spaces that feel unique and expressive. Additionally, the rise of gallery walls and mixed-media installations offers a dynamic way to layer textures, colors, and styles, adding depth and character to any room.

12. Four Poster Bed

Design Trends 2025

Classic elegance meets modern minimalism with the resurgence of four-poster beds. These statement pieces are being reimagined with sleek, contemporary frames and versatile finishes, making them perfect for both traditional and modern interiors. Beyond their visual appeal, four-poster beds create a cozy, cocoon-like atmosphere, providing a sense of comfort and privacy in any bedroom. Look for designs that integrate natural wood, metal, or upholstered elements for a timeless yet on-trend addition to your space.
