In this year’s review of home decor trends we’re seeing a repetition of biophilic design keywords — eco-friendly, nature-themed, sustainability — such that it has become a design tenet rather than trend. So too has the concept of home as sanctuary, with a focus on comfort, self-care, and everyday health. You’ll hear the buzzword “cocooning” repeated in discussions of space planning, textural layering, and how a room is painted. But in 2025 home interiors are also laboratories of bold experiments in color, stylistic mash-ups, sculptural motifs, and high-contrast materials. After recharging in their cozy cocoons people will want to express their personality in whimsical design. And smart technology that is discreetly integrated into stylish interiors will propel design forward. – Elizabeth Howe, Design and Lifestyles Expert for White’s Ace Hardware

We are seeing a continued emphasis on organic design elements mixed with textural and vintage accents. But new trends are emerging in the use of space, color, and materials. Read on, and see if you agree! – Elizabeth Howe, Design and Trends Expert for White’s Ace Hardware
