The fall season has arrived, which means the new year is right around the corner. With the approach of 2025, design experts are setting their predictions for decor styles expected to be on trend in the coming year. Follow along for ideas and inspiration to transform your space.
Textural Maximalism
Textural maximalism will find its stride in 2025, as decor and design shift to embrace varying textures throughout a space. While popcorn ceilings won’t be making a comeback, texturized wallpapers, rugs, curtains, and decor will add depth to rooms and call to be touched. Rather than relying solely on bold colors, designers will experiment with blending visual and tactile elements for a richer sensory experience. Think velvet couches, stone-clad walls, handwoven rugs, and clay finishes—all in the same room.
Key Features:
- Combine multiple textures - mix with confidence to create a truly sensory experience.
- Layer varying fabrics for depth. Embrace suede, leather, velvet, jute, and more.
- Use handcrafted, artisanal decor to create visual interest. Materials like stone, clay, and wood all bring different interests to the space.
Smart Home
Smart homes are becoming increasingly mainstream, but by 2025, the integration of technology into design will reach new levels. From voice-activated systems to touchless technology, design will focus on seamless integration that enhances convenience without sacrificing aesthetics. Furniture and home accessories will be designed with built-in tech solutions, allowing for hidden charging stations, lighting control, and smart furniture that adapts to the user's needs. Imagine a living room where voice-activated controls dim the lights while your side table discreetly charges your phone.
Key Features:
- Touchless faucets, lighting, and doors
- Built-in smart devices in furniture
- Voice-activated controls integrated into the home design
- Adaptive lighting and climate control systems
Color, Color, Color!
Bold, saturated colors are making a comeback in 2025. Appealing shades of hues that have long been seen as dated or taboo are making their way into homes, implemented in a way that challenges dated stereotypes. With this, we’ll see bold tones used as accent walls, full room paint, decor, curtains, and more. This trend is perfect for those who like playful interiors, want to make a statement, or infuse their spaces with a chic personality.
Key Features:
- Reds, purples, blues, and greens return in the form of jewel-toned paint
- Painted or wallpapered ceilings
- Color drenching: a technique that involves painting the walls, trim, ceiling, and even doors in the same or very similar shades of color.
- Bright rugs, curtains, throw pillows, and other textiles that bring a pop of something fun to your decor
