Trends seem to rise and fall faster than we’ve ever seen before, and so we appreciate how exhausting it can be trying to keep up with what’s deemed ‘stylish’ and what’s deemed ‘dated’. With that being said, we’re feeling pretty hopeful about what next year holds for the world of interior design with more colour, texture and personality-packed style on the horizon.
Here, interior design experts and tastemakers share the trends they predict will dominate in 2025, so you can do out with the old and in with the new, should your heart desire.
4 interior design trends predicted to be big in 2025
1. A rich and earthy palette
Gone are the days of beige-on-beige interiors. Pantone named Mocha Mousse, a rich, warming brown hue, as the Colour of the Year 2025, and other experts agree this tone is one to follow.
According to Sophie Bell, founder of lifestyle brand Peppa Hart (@peppahart) and the owner of luxe Bali villa La Playa, we’re moving away from the “over-stylised and overly perfect aesthetic of the past”. In 2025, Sophie believes we’ll see a continued evolution towards warm, layered tones, with more rich and earthy colours to be splashed across interiors next year.
“Earthy palettes featuring rich browns, deep red wine tones, and muted terracotta hues will dominate, bringing a grounded and warm feeling to spaces. These tones may also appear alongside contrasting colours, such as red wine paired with powder blue, to create an unexpected and yet beautiful combination,” she explains. “Paired with a mix of textures like soft linens, marble, aged leather, deeper timber tones, and natural fibres, these elements create a lived-in layered aesthetic.”
2. Wellness spaces
On the more luxurious end of the spectrum, award-winning architect Georgina Wilson (@georginawilsonassociates) highlights the growing demand for multifunctional spaces that cater to wellness, and we’re not just talking about buying a yoga mat here.
“I’ve been getting so many requests for wellness spaces and can see this continuing over the next year. These can be as simple as a yoga or meditation space to a complete wellness den that includes a gym, an infrared sauna and cold plunge facilities,” Georgina says.
3. Vintage finds
Beloved TikTok duo Josh and Matt (@joshandmattdesign), who have earned a faithful following of 3.4 million by sharing their fun and quirky interior style, say that vintage and second-hand homeware shopping is something the pair hope to see continue and grow in 2025.
“I think having circular and sustainable interiors is definitely something I see happening more next year,” says Josh. “We also feel a little less guilty if we want to change up a room because we’re swapping out a 30-year-old dining table for a 20-year-old one.”
Sophie Bell also predicts that sustainability and vintage wares will continue to take centre stage. “More homeowners and designers are recognising the value of unique, pre-loved pieces that carry history, charm, and enduring quality,” she says. “Think beautiful timber furniture, vintage rugs with character, handmade ceramics, books, art and vintage glass vases or chandeliers that tell their own stories.”
But the trend isn’t just about sustainability, it’s also about infusing individuality into spaces, Sophie explains. Sounds like a win-win to us!
4. Biophilic designs
Another prediction from design duo Josh and Matt is the rise of biophilic designs in 2025 – where nature and interiors are intertwined. Earthy hues, natural materials, and slightly more muted colours like terracotta, clay or wood will be big in 2025, they say.
“Colours that are inspired by nature and a bit more muted will blend the indoors and the outdoors easily and will go well with having lots of indoor plants, too,” says Josh.
