Interior design trends shift as expressive styles return in 2025

Several interior design trends are set to return in 2025, moving away from minimalism towards more expressive styles. Earthy neutrals, highlighted by the Pantone color of the year, Mocha Mousse, will add warmth to spaces through decor and accessories. Open shelving is making a comeback, encouraging homeowners to display their items rather than hide them. Curved furniture, reminiscent of the 1970s, is also returning, offering a softer aesthetic that can enhance smaller rooms. Additionally, statement rugs, particularly vintage styles, are regaining popularity for their ability to add character and warmth. Maximalist bold colors, including vibrant wallpapers, are replacing pastels, allowing for more dramatic and personalized home environments.
