A new year means all new ideas for your next home makeover! If you need a little help exploring all the great options this year will bring, NFM is here with our top interior design trends for 2025! we’ve prepared a peek at 3 design trends for 2025 that will look great on your interior. As a bonus, we’re sharing tips to stay ahead of the curve on home interior design trends, no matter the year.

Get the look without getting exhausted

Before getting into the weeds with interior design trends for 2025, here are few things to keep in mind while you browse and buy.

First, design trends are offshoots of core styles with enduring popularity. Choosing a trend means you will end up with many pieces that will be compatible with other trends in the same category, should you want to shake up your look. Picking your interior design shouldn’t feel like a trap. If it starts to feel like you’re locking yourself into a look forever, take a second to consider what core style your chosen trend originates from. To help demonstrate this, we’ll cover the core style of each trend below!

Second, savvy shoppers know to start with furniture essentials that adapt to changing looks. Look at anyone you know who always seems “with-it” and you’re sure to spot an adaptable furniture foundation. In rare cases, a trend-seeker might be buying all new furniture every couple months, but such ventures are quite costly. Having a strong foundation means you are making reasonably sized purchases and updates.

To start with a strong foundation, we suggest checking out something like our 37B collection. 37B is a great start because all the pieces are designed to mix and match. Another way to establish a strong base is through selecting a furniture era sticking to neutral colors. Things like modern and contemporary furniture are tried and true staples, but choosing traditional pieces can add a lot of character to your personal spin on a trend. If this all still sounds like a little much though, NFM’s expert interior designers can take you through the process of setting up your space for a surprisingly affordable fee.

Interior design trends 2025 – Our picks

Organic Origin

Taking a beat from the natural world around us, the trend we call Organic Origin connects to the core style of Earthy. Earthy interior design ideas all find some way to sprout from the natural world, whether that means bringing outdoors in or just using earth-tone colors. Whether you are going for an organic, modern interior design or a conservatory with traditional furniture, both have roots in the Earthy core style.

What differentiates Organic Origin is how it grows your home into something truly you with hues, textures, and silhouettes all directly inspired by nature’s bounty. To get an organic interior design, track down picks that fit the following features. First, natural and asymmetric shapes reflect the beautiful imperfection of everything from plants to eroded stone. Next, use a variety of colors you’d normally associate with nature. A nice mix of related colors creates harmony. As for materials, light to mid-toned woods make a great choice and, if you followed our suggestions earlier, you’re likely to have this already in some of your furniture. Accents and accessories like area rugs, accent chairs, and home décor (especially plants) are all fantastic options to introduce thematic elements without breaking the bank.

Provincial Charm

Remember when we said traditional pieces add a lot of character? Provincial Charm is all about letting those pieces shine and connects to the core style of Classics. Classic interior design is an interesting case study of how trends reflect elements of their parent theme. What is considered a classic is constantly changing with new generations rediscovering what homes looked like even before their time. What connects all Classic trends is their respect and admiration for looks with proven impact. Who knows, maybe the interior design trends of 2025 will be someone’s throwback in a few decades.

Provincial Charm brings a firmly nostalgic look by reaching back into the pre-modern era where many traditional furniture silhouettes were born. So much more than grandparent furniture, provincial interior design provides a comforting nostalgia, even for times we may not have lived through. To help bring a Provincial Charm look to your home, select materials that are distressed, worn, or otherwise honed to give the impression of time. Pair your carefully selected pieces with equestrian details, floral motifs, and plaid or stripes to complete the look. Provincial Charm, unlike our other two design trends, rewards choosing traditional furniture specifically, but don’t think you can’t achieve this style without it. Just consider the resulting fusion as your unique take on the classics.

Inspirations Abroad

Shipped ashore from faraway lands, the enticing wares of Inspirations Abroad comes from the core style of Destination. Trends like Inspirations Abroad find their roots in the beauty and intrigue of distant places and make our everyday surroundings feel like a daily getaway. From mountain lodge chic to tropical interior design ideas, Destination trends are a great alternative to jet setting without the jetlag. 

Choose Inspirations Abroad as your 2025 travel companion with a home featuring artisan beauty and exotic charms. The best way to start on your own personal escape is with a selection of plants and greenery. Live plants are nice and fill your space with extra oxygen, but imitation plants provide plenty of appeal with less effort. Once you have your botanical needs met, select pieces with imperfect, hand-crafted textures to lend a sense of authenticity and tactile interest to your space. Make sure to choose a mixture of finishes too. As with color, a variety of finishes can actually make spaces more harmonious. Lastly, it’s easier to follow the tone set by Inspirations Abroad if you opt for relaxed furniture silhouettes. When your space feels laid back, it’s hard to resist being the same yourself!
