As we approach 2025, home décor is embracing a harmonious blend of rich, earthy tones and warm neutrals, reflecting a collective desire for comfort and connection to nature. Here’s an overview of the color trends set to define interiors in the coming year:
Warm Earth Tones
Deep, grounding hues are making a significant return, offering a sense of warmth and stability. These are hues that are enduring and traditional. They speak to heritage and strength, characteristics that are always in style regardless of trends.
Mocha Mousse: Pantone’s Color of the Year 2025, Mocha Mousse, is a rich, chocolatey brown that evokes indulgence and sophistication. It adds subtle luxury to interiors, contrasting beautifully with bright whites and enhancing textures like marble.
Truffle Brown: Predicted to be prominent in 2025, truffle brown tones create spaces that feel enveloping and comforting, pairing well with natural wood tones like walnut and oak.
Elevated Neutrals
Traditional neutrals are evolving to include warmer, more inviting shades. They form a palette that looks effortlessly coordinated, always. Neutral walls allow you to update through the seasons and the years by changing accessories and textiles.
Mustard Yellow: This muted yellow with brown undertones acts as a neutral, symbolizing happiness and security. It pairs deliciously with other warm, down-to-earth shades like cognac, burnt orange, and olive green, as well as with cool colors such as navy, teal, and aubergine.
Warm Beiges: Timeless warm neutrals like warm beiges are expected to maintain their appeal, offering inviting and moody tones that complement both contemporary and traditional designs.
Nature-Inspired Greens
Shades reminiscent of natural landscapes are bringing tranquility indoors. Long admired for their grace and easiness, natural greens connect us with the vitality of nature. Choose darker greens for private spaces like libraries, and lighter greens for everyday living spaces such as kitchens.
Seafoam Green: This light, blue-green hybrid feels restful and lends itself well to calming spaces like home offices and bathrooms. It evokes the serenity of the sea and makes rooms appear bigger and more spacious.
Olive and Sage Greens: Warmer green tones such as olive and sage are favored for their inviting feel, replacing cooler shades like mint green.
Rich, Saturated Hues
Bolder colors are being embraced to add depth and personality. East Coast Maximalism employs lively colors to raise the mood. The fun bright oranges, greens, and purples of 1970s have been replaced with deep chromatic hues that speak to affluence.
Deep Burgundy and Navy Blue: After years of neutrals, rich expressive colors like deep burgundy and navy blue are making a comeback, adding drama and relaxation to spaces.
Violet-Influenced Blues: Deeper, more saturated colors, including violet-influenced blues, serve as compelling alternatives to timeless shades, redefining interior wood finishing by blending timeless elegance with contemporary boldness.
Soft, Muted Tones
Gentle colors continue to offer a soothing backdrop. Understated hues invite the occupant to imagine a personalized space. They encourage a little bit of daydreaming and the suspension of time.
Mapped Blue: Dutch Boy Paints’ 2025 Color of the Year, Mapped Blue, is a versatile medium blue with yellow undertones, providing a classic yet modern charm adaptable to various design styles.
Mochi: Little Greene’s 2025 Color of the Year, Mochi, is a soft, complex neutral that marries historical elegance with contemporary versatility, perfect for creating restful feels in bedrooms, bathrooms, and living rooms.
