Trends and fashion are constantly changing, whether it’s old designs resurfacing or new ideas coming to light. If you want your new home to be on the forefront of interior design, you might want to consider these trending home decor designs that are taking 2025 by storm.
Even if you haven’t settled on a specific design, this list can give you some great ideas for restyling your new home.
Retro revival: 1970’s inspired colour and furniture
From clothes to interior design, the 1970s are experiencing a resurgence across the UK. From bold colours like mustard yellow, burnt orange, and teal, more and more people are incorporating daring colours throughout their homes to create a space they feel comfortable in.
But it’s not just stopping at colours. In fact, many are also using retro-inspired furniture to create a modern-vintage aesthetic. If you want to create a similar feel in your home, consider incorporating retro chairs and rugs, since these provide nice touches without overwhelming a space.
Statement tile drenching for spa-like bathrooms
Another style that has found appeal this year is ‘tile drenching’. In other words, homeowners are using tiles to coat their walls, floors, and ceilings in coordinated tones, creating a luxurious and easy-to-clean sanctuary.
When trying to create this effect in your own home, we recommend planning your colours and patterning first. They’re a crucial component to avoid creating a stark but dull look, but using colour carelessly can create a messy or untidy appearance.
Depending on the tiles you use, you may even try creating a mosaic, adding some artistry to your natural decor.
Butter yellow accents
Another design trend that has become popular in 2025 is the ‘butter yellow accents’. Yellow is widely recognised as a colour that creates happiness and warmth in a home, but overusing it too much can be overwhelming.
To inject some warmth into your home, try limiting the use of butter yellow to small pieces, like lamps and cushions, throughout your home. By using it across the house, you’re also weaving the theme throughout your home, creating a cohesive design.
Eco materials and biophilic design
As the general public is becoming more eco-aware, more people are moving towards eco-friendly and natural materials to reflect these new tastes. Some examples include reclaimed wood, bamboo, and low-VOC finishes. To use these aspects throughout your home, why not consider larger pieces of furniture, like bookshelves, cabinets, or bedframes?
As a natural material, bamboo is incredibly eco-friendly, since it’s fast-growing and easy to harvest. Additionally, by supporting the use of more natural materials, you encourage more businesses to invest in their production, leading to a better environmental impact.
You can also incorporate various pieces of biophilic decor, such as plants and natural textures (like jute), into your home design. This is great for adding a mindful and healthy atmosphere to your house.
