Beyond decorating a space, interior design is about creating a timeless yet trendy atmosphere. Many homeowners want a personalized and distinct style, so designers must balance both while keeping in line with current trends. However, these trends fluctuate as interests change. So, as the year fizzles out, experts predict some trends will follow suit while others will move on to see another year. 1) Minimalism Minimalism has reigned supreme in house styling for years, but experts say it may be ending its rule this year. Some feel it makes homes devoid of liveliness, as it leans on muted colors like white or beige. Designers say this makes a room feel underwhelming or sterile. Many homeowners are increasingly interested in creating a space with more personality, including brighter colors, a display of personal items and a mixture of textures. However, maximalism is also becoming out of trend, so in 2025, the trick is to walk the fine line between both ends of the spectrum. 2) Fast Furniture Poor-quality and cheap furniture is a thing of the past. These pieces are mass-produced using low-quality materials like particle board that can’t be refined or repaired as they age. This means they frequently end up in landfills. Experts say more people are appreciating the longevity and resilience of high-quality furniture. These items add personality to a space and stand the test of time, even to become family heirlooms. Fortunately, many brands that make these products have pledged to do better to promote sustainability. For example, in 2021, 55.8% of the materials IKEA sourced were renewable and 17.3% were recycled. 3) One-Tone Spaces Gone are the days when homes had ranges of shades of a single color to ensure uniformity. The idea of an analogous color scheme is to implement the 60-30-10 rule, where the dominant color takes up the most space, followed by two accent colors. For example, pair a rich cerulean blue with a neutral green and a few spots of orange to create a more vibrant look. Palettes like this in different fixtures and furniture in a room are becoming increasingly popular, with 46% of homeowners preferring their island cabinet paint to differ from the main ones. This adds character by creating contrast between items in a space. Because analogous color schemes also occur in nature — think of the ombre sunsets or brightly colored creatures in the ocean — these palettes can create dynamic and harmonious rooms. 4) Open Floor Plans During the pandemic, many people were cooped up in the same house for prolonged periods, which increased the need for private spaces. While open floor plans are spacious and can create a sense of community by taking down walls, they’re no longer a preferred approach to interior design because of On top of the lack of privacy and noise pollution, this style can also increase heating and cooling costs because the space the systems need to cover becomes bigger. Designers also say that, with open floor plans, creating and adhering to functionality is more challenging. Compartmentalizing spaces using walls, drapes, or divider shelves allows designers more leeway to play with each room's design and colors. What to Expect in 2025 In 2025, past and new trends are expected to take center stage: Cluttercore: Designers are rooting for cluttercore — a type of maximalism that celebrates personality and abundance without overwhelming the space. This style embraces sentimentality while adhering to space quotient rules, creating cozy and inviting homes. Color blocking: With muted, neutral tones leaving the interior design stage, pops of color are about to have their shining moment. Designers say homeowners want to add punchy hues to their space to increase the vibrancy and add a lively twist to the room. Biophilic interiors: Considering biophilic decor is proven to improve wellness and reduce stress , experts expect nature to continue inspiring interior design. Organic materials, earthy tones, window walls and indoor greenery will drive this trend in 2025. New Trends Making an Entrance as Others Bid Adieu As 2024 makes way for 2025, many long-lasting interior design styles are predicted to fall out of trend. New fads will naturally replace them, creating more options for personalization.
