Over the past few years, we’ve seen a strong wave of neutral tones dominating interiors—soft, calming, and timeless. But lately, richer, moodier colors are taking center stage, and we couldn’t be more excited to see spaces embracing depth, personality, and bold expression. Let’s take a look at a few inspiring examples…
Timeless, Grounding Earth Hues
This year, earthy hues like olive, sage, navy, cinnamon, and ochre are making beautiful statements in design. They add warmth and help ground a space. These tones feel both timeless and nurturing, creating an atmosphere that encourages rest, reflection, and connection. We love layering them into textiles, wall colors, and accent pieces to add richness and contrast without overwhelming a space.
Warm, Rich Jewel Tones
Joyful yet tasteful, today’s use of jewel tones—like emerald, garnet, sapphire, and topaz—is bringing vibrancy back into interiors. These rich hues inspire a deep sense of warmth and emotion, instantly elevating a space. We love incorporating them into design through statement upholstery, art, or dramatic window treatments to create layers of personality.
Bright, Energetic Natural Brights
Bright, nature-inspired hues like coral, cerulean, and lime are bringing a fresh burst of energy to interior spaces. When used thoughtfully, these vibrant colors pair beautifully with neutrals, adding just the right pop without being too much for a space. We love using them in accent decor, art, or even a bold piece of furniture to liven up a room and spark a little joy.
While color trends come and go, the real takeaway is that everything goes. Your home should reflect YOU. We love helping clients infuse their spaces with personalized color palettes that feel authentic, intentional, and entirely their own.

Trends are a great way to find inspiration and figure out what you love. It’s always fun to see how people successfully transformed their spaces and it’s a great way to explore the possibilities of your own transformation!
So without further ado, let’s dive into 2025’s Interior Design Trends…
Trend #1: Deep Jewel Tones
Using pops of color to create interest is becoming increasingly popular with medium and dark tones. Specifically saturated jewel tones such as deep teal, moss green, velvet plum, and dark ruby. Paired with earthy hues such as camel tan, sea salt, and creamy whites.
Trend #2: Attention To Detail
People are appreciating the finer details through a mix of texture, materials, ornate accents, fringe, and lighting! Whether you lean more traditional or modern, there are many ways to add fun details to a space that make you wanna lean in and take a closer look.
Trend #3: Statement Features
Statement pieces and feature walls are all the rage. Wallpaper and accent walls have been a favorite way to spruce up a space and we’re loving it! You can also create a statement feature with a large piece of artwork, a fun patterned drapery, or an accent chair.
Don’t be afraid to be different! We are seeing more clients wanting to have fun with their home and make it feel more personal. There is so much more out there than what is shown in stores. Make your home a reflection of what you love.
