2025 Interior Trends

This year, the world of interiors is set to be an exciting blend of timeless and innovative design. From rich, dark wood tones to bold colour drenching and curved lines, here are the key trends you can expect to see shaping homes and spaces this year.

Dark Woods and Browns

Pale wood tones are gradually taking a backseat as interiors move toward the richness of walnut, mahogany, and dark-stained oak. This shift reflects the growing popularity of antiques, where deep, reddish woods take center stage.

Amanda Smith Corston, an interior stylist at Ted Todd, predicts, “We’ll see a resurgence of warm, dark woods in 2025, both on floors and room cladding.”

Colour Drenching

Colour drenching—using one hue throughout an entire room—is set to dominate in 2025. This trend involves fully committing to a single colour across walls, doors, ceilings, and skirting, creating a cohesive and immersive look.

Gone are the days of bold accent walls. Designers are opting for a unified approach that eliminates awkward cut-offs and achieves a harmonious atmosphere.

Room Dividers as Art

Room dividers are making a stylish statement, doubling as functional art pieces. Interior designer Linda Boronkay, known for her influence on Soho House interiors, notes the rising appeal of these versatile design elements. They’re perfect for defining spaces while adding a touch of creativity and sophistication.

Curves and Arches

Curves and arches will be a cornerstone of 2025 interior design, offering a soft, dramatic contrast to sharp architectural features. Whether it’s arched doorways, curved furniture, or flowing lines, these elements add balance and a sense of movement to interiors.

Furniture with Curves and Soft Edges

The retro revival continues, with curved furniture and soft edges dominating the scene. From bubble-shaped chairs to rounded sofas and tables, these designs evoke a welcoming and fluid feel. The calming quality of curves creates spaces that are both inviting and soothing.

Earthy Tones in Furniture

Earthy tones like warm browns, deep greens, and soft beiges will remain a staple in 2025 interiors. These colours create a grounding and calming atmosphere, connecting spaces to nature and promoting well-being. Simple touches, like a terracotta accent chair or a green pouf, can transform a room. The Pantone Colour of 2025 is Mocha Mousse which is a warming brown hue which we may also see running through interior schemes.

Chrome is Back

While brass remains a favorite, cool metallics like polished chrome, nickel, brushed steel, and aluminum are making a striking comeback in 2025 interiors. These sleek finishes bring a contemporary edge to spaces, offering a refreshing alternative to warmer metals.

2025 is shaping up to be a year of bold statements and thoughtful design. At SWD, we’re excited to embrace these trends and help clients bring them to life in their projects. From rich wood tones to curved lines and earthy palettes, the future of interiors is inspiring and full of possibilities.
