As 2025 approaches, if you’re considering decorating or remodeling, you might wonder what styles will be trending. The coming year is all about revisiting past styles with a fresh twist, with popular designs from previous years regaining attention. We’ve interviewed various designers to understand which design trends are making a comeback and how to effectively incorporate them into your home. Here are the top 8 design trends to watch for in 2025.
Bold Patterns and Maximalism
According to Colleen Bute Bennett of CBB Design, bold wallpapers, dramatic prints, and layered textures are coming back in style. As minimalism fades, more people want vibrant and expressive spaces, and maximalism delivers just that. Maximalism allows personal storytelling through interior design.
Warm Earth Tones
Warm earth tones like terracotta, rust, ochre, and deep greens are expected to be big in 2025. This trend emphasizes well-being and a connection to nature, bringing warm, earthy colors back into focus.
Retro Vibes of the ’70s and ’80s
Retro interiors are making a strong return. Curved furniture, bold color palettes, and retro materials like rattan, velvet, and brass are becoming staples of 2025 decor.
Wallpaper Accents
If covering an entire room feels overwhelming, try adding wallpaper accents. Many people are applying wallpaper to entryways, feature walls, or even ceilings to express their personality. Peel-and-stick wallpapers offer an easy way to try out this trend.
Custom Decor
Custom furniture and accessories have been gaining popularity over the past few years, and they’re expected to become even more accessible to the general public.
Dark Wood
While lighter wood has been popular, warm and dark wood tones are coming into the spotlight. Rich colors like walnut bring depth and sophistication to spaces, creating a cozy, upscale vibe.
Marbling
Sarah Latham from Latham Interiors notes a revival of ’90s-style marbling in fabrics and coverings. Marbling mimics a marble-like effect and can be used in fabrics, wallpapers, and other materials for a unique touch.
Decorating your home in line with these trends will enhance your enjoyment of the space now and add value if you choose to sell later.
