5 interior design trends that will become popular in 2025

Interior design in 2025 is moving away from the impersonal and polished. Instead, it's about creating homes that tell stories through unique materials, textures and colours. From marbled burl wood to warm earth tones and oversized artwork, this year's trends focus on personality, quality and authenticity.

Burl wood


Burl wood is characterised by its unique marbled pattern created by a deformed growth of the wood. This natural variation makes each piece of burl wood special. It is often used for coffee tables and chests of drawers, where the marbled pattern is emphasised with a lacquered high-gloss finish. Burl wood adds warmth and an organic feel to the interior that stands out from ordinary woods.

White transparent lamps


Lamps in white, semi-transparent materials such as rice paper or textile provide a soft, diffused light that creates a calm and cosy atmosphere. They come in many forms - as pendants, table lamps and floor lamps - and contribute to an organic look. These lights are ideal for contrasting with harder materials such as metal and leather, creating a balanced and harmonious style.

Oversized art


Large artworks that fill an entire wall are taking over from the previously popular gallery walls with many small artworks. Oversized art adds depth and character to the room and can act as a central focal point. Choose abstract pieces for a modern look or motifs in warm colours to create a welcoming atmosphere. This type of art is a simple way to transform the dynamic of the entire room.

Terracotta


Terracotta is back as a favourite material in interior design. With its warm, earthy tones, terracotta brings a calm and authentic feel to the home. It's used for everything from pots and tiles to dinnerware and sculptures, where its rough texture and natural finish add a sense of authenticity and timelessness. Terracotta can be mixed with other ceramic elements in earthy colours to create a cohesive and natural aesthetic.

Wall-to-wall bookcases


Wall-to-wall bookcases allow you to optimise wall space while becoming a decorative part of the interior. Fill the bookcase with books, decorative elements, souvenirs and plants to create a personalised and dynamic composition. The different elements add both structure and character to the room and act as a narrative of your personality and experiences.
