Interior Design Trends For 2025

Interior Design Trends For 2025

Several publications have recently listed interior design trends to look out for in 2025. Hugh Metcalf, writing for Livingetc, pointed out that a trend “isn’t some fleeting fancy”, but rather “the story of how style evolves over time”. In 2025, interior design is set to build on the ideas popular in 2024, “in more dramatic applications.” We’re likely to see more sophisticated designs with more tailored approaches.

Oxblood

Oxblood, the shade of dark red, has been picked out by designers as the colour to look out for. Multiple paint brands have picked similar shades as their colour for the year. Interior designer Anne McDonald said, “It’s not a colour that feels harsh, because of the brown tones in it.” In fashion, oxblood is often associated with high-end menswear. In interior design, oxblood is used to suggest elegance and sophistication. Its darker tone can create a cosy and inviting atmosphere.

Decorilla wrote, “Bold, saturated colours are making a comeback”. They said the trend of colour-drenched rooms, which use a single hue in varying shades, are perfect if you want to make a statement or a room with “a chic personality”.

Speaking of chic, 1970s chic is predicted to continue making waves. Livingetc noted that at Milan Design Week this year, “retro textures and colour pairings were everywhere”.

Textured walls and ceilings

Decorilla chose textured walls and ceilings as one of their trends for 2025. “Wallpapered ceilings, wood panelling, and decorative plaster finishes” are set to liven up flat surfaces and give rooms an extra focal point.

Similarly, Livingetc highlighted “statement ceilings” as something to watch out for. While the default has long been a white ceiling, regardless of the rest of the design, we’re more likely to see more expressive painted, panelled, and wallpapered ceilings. Interior designer Summer Thornton said, “When you do something dramatic with the ceiling it creates an enveloping moment, it surrounds people, literally, with the experience”.

Partitioned spaces

Livingetc’s contributing editor, Keith Flanagan, recently wrote about the trend of partition walls, interior glass windows, and arched doorways to separate spaces and create cosiness. Small internal doors are available in a range of styles, materials, and finishes, including 3 panel white doors and white oak doors.

Outdoors comes indoors

The line between outdoors and indoors is set to blur. More designers may seek to make outdoor spaces as comfortable and stylish as those indoors. Decorilla highlighted “outdoor kitchens, cosy seating areas, and weather-resistant decor” for their potential for seamless transitions. They also wrote about how home wellness spaces, using natural light and indoor plants, “will become an essential part of home design.” We’ll likely be better off for it – both natural light and plants have long been studied for their various health benefits. More light can help us get quality sleep, improve our mood, and boost vitamin D.

Discreet tech

Another trend chosen by Decorilla was the use of discreet tech. TVs and monitors have become bigger and bigger in recent years, but screens, smart devices, and hidden speakers are predicted to integrate “more seamlessly” into our homes.
