Summer is here! The flowers are blooming, the trees are full of blossoms, and the sun is shining (most of the time). You might be treating yourself to that fresh summer air through an open window or relaxing outside with your favourite book.

It’s the perfect time to embrace all the sun has to offer, and that also means freshening up your space.

Interior design trends are forever changing and evolving, from calming coastal styles of 2024 to Boho Chic of 2019 to the soft teals of 2012. So, where do you begin with knowing interior design trends for summer 2025?

We’ve got you covered.

Patterns have been a staple of our homes for a millennium. Evolving from simple decorative pieces, such as vases and rugs to integral parts of interior and architectural styles, such as stained-glass windows and bold furniture.

So, it’s no surprise that patterns are making a comeback. From charming cottage styled florals to striped linens and vibrant wallpaper on a feature wall.

When you think ‘luxury’, you might get visions of lavish chandeliers, impractical sized artwork with gold frames or something like a historical Manor house with a grand staircase and lots of red velvet.

With Relaxed Luxury, the concept is very different. This trend is about emphasising comfort with an understated elegance. There is a focus on quality materials, calm colour palettes, natural textures and a sense of tranquillity. Relaxed Luxury is about creating a space that feels inviting and personal, rather than extravagant.

Bright whites are out and going bold is in! For the right room, deep saturated colours, such as jewel tones, can bring the perfect balance of moodiness and cosiness that just makes the space feel inviting. On the other hand, bright colours, such as citrus hues and yellows, can create a vibrant and energetic atmosphere, inspiring a lively and dynamic mood.

Going bold isn’t for the faint hearted. If colour makes you feel nervous, test out a small space in your home, and trust the process!

Nature has always been a welcomed aspect of our homes, and this trend is no different. Grounding tones, including nutty browns, terracotta, sage green and stone grey, can transform a room by creating a visual balance within the space.

Grounding and natural colours create a sense of stability, a calm atmosphere and a homely feel, no matter what room you decorate. This trend can be accessorised with natural materials, such as wood and woven textures, or with bold patterns and indoor plants or flowers.

Vintage or vintage-styled interior designs are becoming increasingly popular, and it’s not hard to see why! Driven by the desire for that warming, welcoming feel, this trend fills a room with character and a nostalgic connection to the past. Whether you thrift pieces from local charity shops or display an heirloom piece, these iconic pieces can add a unique touch to any room.

Don’t be afraid to mix the new with the old, vintage pieces can be integrated into any space alongside their modern counterparts.

Inspired by the revive of vintage love, upholstery has also seen a return to our homes. With soft, padded textile bringing any furniture to life, add something eye-catching to your space. This upholstery trend accentuates comfort, luxury and adds a touch of personality within your home.

Each piece can be completely unique, full of bold patterns or colour, different fabric, and mixed with metal and woods, giving your space a layered, lived-in effect.

If your walls are looking a little blank, and you want to create something unique and playful, try out a gallery wall. If you’re a perfectionist, you can keep the frames the same, but the 2025 gallery wall trend has seen a mix of mismatched frames, textures and materials.

Gallery walls are the perfect way to build up an art collection, display sentimental pieces and build a story to your space.

A gallery wall adds a fun but relaxed feel to your home, and whether you fill frames up with pictures of your loved ones or display quirky elements, like dried flowers, your wall will go from bland to bold in seconds.

Drawing inspiration from the relaxed vibes of the 1970s, low-slung furniture is defining itself as one of the freshest 2025 trends. Low-slung furniture aims to create a laidback, almost informal atmosphere, with ease and ultimate comfort.

Low-slung furniture focuses on home comfort, with encouragement for a more leisurely lifestyle and a reminder that comfort is priority. From beds, sofas, armchairs and even bedside tables, low-slung furniture creates a laid-back and grounded experience for your home.

Whatever your taste, 2025 will have a trend perfect for you. Discover something new or lean into an interior design trend you’ve admired for a while. Either way, this summer is the perfect excuse to embrace your home and make any space full of your own personality and uniqueness.
