We are now at the start of 2025 – a year which promises to be one of bold choices and meaningful changes. From nostalgic nods to nature-inspired elements, here are four interios trends we just can’t wait to see more of in the new year…

1. Vintage and Retro Designs

Nostalgia will reign supreme in 2025 as vintage and retro designs make a triumphant return. Think bold geometric patterns, mid-century furniture, and rich, earthy colours like mustard yellow and burnt orange. But don’t just stop at buying modern items that imitate the style – hunting for bargains is half the fun! Try charity shops and flea markets, and keep an eye out on online marketplaces – an authentic piece may fall into your lap, and turn out to be the perfect addition to your living room.

2. Embracing Textures

Texture will take centre stage in interiors, bringing depth and tactile appeal to living spaces. From plush fabrics to rough-hewn woods, layering textures creates a sense of richness and warmth. Rugs are central in this trend, offering a versatile way to add texture underfoot. Hide Rugs’ collection of sheepskin, cowhide rugs, and exotic rugs provides the perfect balance of luxury and practicality. A soft sheepskin rug layered over natural wood flooring or a bold cowhide rug as a statement piece can elevate any room. Textures invite touch and interaction, making spaces feel lived-in and truly inviting!

3. Biophilic Design

Plants, plants, and more plants! Biophilic design, which connects interiors with nature, will continue to rise in 2025. Large indoor plants, living walls, and water features are the most beloved elements of this trend. Materials such as stone, wood, and Hide Rugs’ natural hides can help create harmony between indoors and the natural world. This trend is more than aesthetic; it’s a philosophy that prioritises health and sustainability. Speaking of which…

4. Sustainable Materials

Sustainability was a driving force in 2024 design choices, and will remain so in 2025. This is a trend we certainly hope is here to stay!

For the new year, expect a focus on eco-friendly materials that minimise environmental impact. From reclaimed wood furniture to sheepskin rugs crafted from ethically sourced hides, sustainable design marries style with responsibility. Opt for furnishings and decor that stand the test of time, reducing waste and promoting thoughtful consumption – and it will even save you money in the long run!
