One of the most effective ways to create comfort in your new home is by furnishing and decorating it to reflect not only your personality but also current trends. You don't need a paintbrush and a piece of paper to become an artist. You can start by familiarising yourself with affordable and practical solutions for new movers that can give your home a stunning and welcoming look. What will interior design look like in 2025, let's find out together!
Brief Overview of 2025 Interior Design Trends
Furnishings in 2025 will be primarily associated with words like sophistication, regality, class and timelessness. Here are some of the buzziest trends describing what interior design will look like in 2025:
Quiet luxury style
Associated with neutral and clean colours, reflecting the pursuit of a relaxed lifestyle, this style often combines classic elements and minimalism. Typical colours include white, grey, light green, and blue (in various tones). When it comes to home decoration, typical of the quiet luxury style are the additions in gold, marble elements (bathroom furniture, kitchen worktop, wall covering), and wooden cabinets. Stick to minimalism regarding wall decorations and plants and opt for cleaner textile elements (carpets, curtains, sheets or decorative cushions). Accentuate the elegance of your home with sophisticated lamps and candles. In terms of furniture shapes - stick to classic furnishings with sharp lines - square and rectangular tables, worktops, chairs and stools balanced by round shapes (bedside lamps, chandeliers).
Brightness and expressiveness
Opposite to the quiet luxury style, among the interior design trends for 2025 are bright and bold designs. With different textures, a variety of colours and a focus on maximalism in terms of decorations such as paintings, vases, carpets, tiling and other elements, this trend in furnishings allows precisely the most artistic new movers to express themselves, giving their home a unique look. Styles typical of the 70s and 80s and featuring extravagant colours, strong colour contrast, furniture with rounded, often atypical shapes, and a wealth of different figurative elements will also be in vogue in 2025. Characteristic materials include velvet, rattan and brass. Typically, homes furnished in this style evoke a sense of fun, unconventionality and uniqueness.
A quest for health
Interior design trends in 2025 are geared towards a healthy living philosophy. Wide spaces with clean furnishings, where you could exercise or indulge in meditation, will be increasingly favoured. Blurring the lines between outdoor and indoor spaces is also hot, with more designers opting for outdoor spaces, glazed walls (bringing us closer to nature) and bringing greenery inside the home. If you don't have a patio, you can successfully turn your terrace into a wonderful outdoor space. Natural materials such as stone, wood and bamboo are among the preferred in 2025.
What are the Colors of 2025?
Colours are the often underestimated component of interior design that offers you the opportunity to give a new look to your home inexpensively and affordably, without having to completely change the furnishings or take on the task of ordering and assembling furniture, engaging a handyman and incurring additional costs. Here's what interior design will look like in 2025 in terms of colour:
White and beige
Associated with simplicity and allowing you to experiment boldly in terms of furniture, decorations and other bolder home accents, white and beige are unlikely to bore you. They bring light and spaciousness into the home. In addition, they combine more than successfully with the natural materials and natural earth tones already mentioned.
Bordeaux
Classic and seemingly ageless, we associate this colour with sophistication, opulence and mystery. Sofas, stools and chairs in burgundy are an excellent solution to give your new home a modern look. You can also bring the colour into your home in the form of various decorative elements—kitchenware, napkins, towels, curtains, bed linen, carpets, photo frames, etc.
Warm wood tones
The focus on nature and natural elements is reflected in the most popular shades for home furnishings in 2025. Brown is among the colours to use to enhance the sense of calm in the home, accentuating components such as wooden cabinets and various decorations and pairing it with lighter tones such as white and beige. You can also go for brown parquet flooring, which you can complement with an interesting decorative rug.
Blue
Among the popular colours for 2025 is blue in its various shades. From combinations between light blue and light green notes, to the sophisticated dark blue as an accent in the bathroom (tiles in dark blue) or in the kitchen, you definitely won't go wrong with this colour. Darker shades of blue can be complemented with the wood tones already mentioned or shades of beige, white and grey.
Dark Green
A strong colour that, like burgundy and navy, we associate with regality. Pairs well with gold elements, yellow, grey and accessories in wood and bamboo. And if you go for furniture in dark green, you can successfully complement it with decorations in burgundy and beige walls. Colour drenching is one of the hot trends for 2025, with a focus on one strong colour when furnishing rooms. In particular, dark green is among the colours to successfully 'drench' any of the rooms in your home.
Decoration Trends in the Interior Design
Here's what interior design will look like in 2025 in terms of decorative elements to successfully give your home a distinctive feel:
Accent pieces
As their name suggests, accent pieces are designed to complement the overall look of a home, giving it character and accentuating certain areas of the home. From pottery to candles, decorative flowers, bold animal silhouettes or wood decorations, these items are so varied that their choice is entirely up to your taste. They are also one of the most affordable solutions to give your home décor a finishing touch.
Stripes
Stripes are a great way to add an artistic touch to your home, and among their pros is that you can place them anywhere—walls, sofas, rugs, paintings and even striped stools are among the options to choose from.
Tiny Framed Artwork
Paintings placed in small frames are among those curious trends for 2025 that, apart from being an interesting and affordable addition to your home furnishings, can also become a univalent gift regardless of the occasion.
No to empty walls and ceilings
Among the trends in interior design in 2025 will be wall decorations, both the already mentioned small works of art, as well as paintings and photographs in large frames taking up a significant part of the walls. Ceiling decorations will also be among the hot interior trends, and in this case, you can opt for unusual lighting, lavish chandeliers, or wood panelling.
Affordable and Practical Solutions for New Movers
No matter how good the homes look when furnished according to the latest interior trends, creating a home that looks like it came out of a magazine is never cheap. Often, after relocation, the large furnishing costs are simply unaffordable. But don't worry, there are practical solutions too. Here's where to get inspiration for affordable home interiors:
Online
Pinterest can be a real treasure trove for ideas on how new movers can furnish and decorate their home affordably and practically. You'll find suggestions for different colour combinations, variations on exactly how to arrange your furniture, plenty of ideas for handmade decorations and inspiring examples of what fabrics to go for. And on YouTube, you can find various videos focusing on the principles of successful interior design.
Take a walk in a furniture shop
While not always affordable, large furniture chains can serve as inspiration for the latest interior design trends. Don't rush to buy. Instead, walk into a few stores to get ideas on how to arrange your home, and what shapes, fabrics and colours are in fashion. Then look for more affordable alternatives to your chosen furniture and accessories or try to transform and bring some of your existing furnishings into your new home.
The principle of trial and error
Although you may have the perfect idea of how to furnish your home, plans often diverge from reality. The reasons vary, from the size of the space you have to the compatibility of individual pieces of furniture and the difficulty of maintaining and moving them. The best advice in this case is to furnish your new home in stages. If you are still not happy with the result, be prepared to swap furniture and deviate from your original idea.
Creative hacks for extra cosiness
Creativity is the foundation of a beautiful home. Here are some additional affordable and practical ideas to enhance the look of your new home in 2025:
Mirrors for more space
We've already written about how to store your belongings if you live in a small home. You can also create the illusion of more space by placing mirrors in specific places so that they reflect light and illuminate dark corners of the home, creating a sense of spaciousness.
A variety of textures
Opt for a mix of different fabrics such as the aforementioned wood, stone, pottery and even handmade knits and decorations of different fabrics.
Glazed cabinets
You can use them to achieve an aesthetic at home, decorating them with intimate cutlery or collectables. The pros? You can change the decorations in the cabinets according to the season, trends and mood, adding freshness to your home affordably and practically.
Pleasant scents
You can add to the cosiness of your home with unobtrusive natural scents. For this, you can use scented candles made from natural ingredients, a few sprigs of lavender to place in your dining room, or essential oils to soothe.
Handmade items
Add to the uniqueness of your home with handmade items. They're also a great way to engage your loved ones in a collaborative creative endeavour. Create candles or ceramic ornaments together. You can also knit a mattress or swings for outdoor relaxation. Handmade blankets are also a great addition to the design and atmosphere of the home.
Add family photos
Nothing would celebrate the success of a family move better than capturing it. Take photos that you can later print large (in line with current trends) and place them on the walls of your new home.
Dimmed light
One affordable way to play with colour and atmosphere at home is by opting for lighting in warm colours (orange, red). As well as being functional, lamps are a great addition to the aesthetic of a home, and original solutions are available on the market in a variety of shapes, sizes and motifs. By opting for LED bulbs you reduce the negative impact on the environment by using them longer than traditional ones.
