Modern Interior Design Trends in 2025

Introduction: Designing the Future with Meaning

Interior design fads tend to come and go, but in 2025, the emphasis is less on blindly following trends and more on meaningful design that genuinely tells your unique story. At L+P Interiors, we think your home should be an authentic reflection of you — who you are, how you live, and what you care about — but it should also anticipate what’s changing about how we live.

2025 is the year of spaces that are as emotionally resonant and deeply functional. It’s about rediscovering nature, celebrating individuality, and creating homes that foster wellness and comfort. These trends don’t tell you what your home has to be, but they encourage thoughtful, timeless decisions.

Want to know how you can incorporate these adventurous ideas into your own home? Take a look at the key interior design trends in 2025 — and how L+P Interiors can help you create a space that truly feels like you, for you.

What’s In for 2025: Top Modern Interior Design Trends (Explained)

1. Elevated Naturalism: Raw Meets Refined


High naturalism the one of the compelling trends for 2025. Imagine the organic textures of raw wood, veined marble, and unpolished stone — but then add a sense of sophistication, polish, and elegance that feels distinct and refined.

This trend is also about bringing the outside in, anchoring your home with materials that root you to place and time. Textures take a leading role: limewash walls with their powdery matt finish, tactile woven textiles, and oak surfaces unvarnished, so that their grain and imperfections are visible.

At L+P Interiors, we’re big fans of working with these materials – they bring a soothing ambience to a space. They are an invitation to take things slowly and see the beauty of things not being perfect. It’s nature’s design, taken to an art level — classic but new.

We had a lovely statement limestone fireplace with a background of natural oak shelving in a recent project, for example. The play of raw and refined gave the room an earthy warmth tempered by modern polish.

2. Saturated Color Stories: Jewel Tones Take Center Stage



Warm woods and soft neutrals have given way to rich jewel tones in 2025’s color palette. We’re talking deep burgundy, sumptuous teal, and warm ochre — colors that give the room emotional depth and a bit of drama without the entire room feeling, well, dramatic.

These bold, saturated colors are layered to form rooms that feel personal and lived-in. They are not just for the bold statement rooms; a touch of a jewel tone in a powder bathroom, a cozy reading nook, or the study can add unexpected delight.

This color trend perfectly complements L+P Interiors’ signature approach of “classic with a twist”, where you have a timeless base with pops of colour that reflect your personality.

If you’re not sure how to discover your perfect color story, we’ll tap our design team to help you select tones that speak to your lifestyle and mood, so your palettes aren’t just pretty but real and welcoming.

3. Mixed Eras, Not Just Eclectic: Curated Contrast



Say goodbye to one-note minimalism and hello to curated contrast. In 2025, combining eras is no longer about random eclecticism and more about a thoughtful narrative.

Think midcentury lighting with 19th-century millwork, all in combination with modern furniture. This movement allows your home to change naturally, acknowledging the history of the plot, but also the moment.

L+P Interiors sees it as more than design history; it’s the organic story of your family. Instead of gutting every room, you can revive a space through the slow accretion of meaning-laden pieces from a variety of moments.

One of our favorite projects that hopped on the bandwagon was mixing vintage antiques in with super modern accents, which resulted in a kitchen that felt both timeless and uniquely their own.

4. Wellness-Driven Design: Spaces That Nurture Mind and Body




In 2025, wellness has become a fundamental part of home design. It goes beyond aesthetics: Augmented by the pandemic, people desire spaces that encourage mindfulness, relaxation, and renewal.

This trend also encompasses circadian lighting that shifts with your body’s natural rhythms, cozy retreat corners lined with sensory textiles, and home saunas or steam rooms. Biophilic design — which involves bringing plants and other natural elements indoors — establishes an environment that can soothe the mind and body.

At L+P Interiors, we believe in layering a quiet luxury with comfort. Wellness-focused design isn’t about flashy features, but about capturing spaces that feel like an escape.

One of the firm’s recent projects turned a spare master bedroom into a wellness destination with adjustable lighting, plush textures, and a built-in meditation nook — it’s a master class in that elusive balance of beauty and utility.

5. Soft Modernism: Curved Forms & Fluid Layouts




In 2025’s modernism revival, sharp angles and hard lines are being replaced with soft shapes. Curves, arches, globe pendants, and circular furniture come into play in this soft modernism — a style that feels personal, plush, and exquisitely human.

This trend is the perfect mix of comfort and visual flair. It’s modern and yet warm and soft, inviting you to sit for a while.

At L+P Interiors, we see soft modernism as modernism 2.0 — the place where function and tactile beauty meet. A rounded sofa or arched door opening has the power to make a room feel instantly softer without giving up on sophistication.

Seeking softness that goes to an edge? Together, let’s co-create the home of your dreams.




6. Sustainability is Not a Trend — But Personalization Is




Sustainability remains a core value, not simply a buzzword. It’s 2025, and the average homeowner cares deeply about the provenance of their furnishings and finishes.

Boutique, upcycled, or locally made things will always be the order of the day here over anything that’s mass-manufactured. The history of each of those objects counts.

At L+P Interiors, we work with local artisans and sustainable methods to infuse the designs inside of your home with your personality and conscious living.

This is where the trend for sustainable home design comes in, encouraging you to design in a way that is purposeful and thoughtful, helping you lessen your impact on the environment without sacrificing luxury.

Beyond the Buzzwords: Real Clients, Real Design Stories




At L+P Interiors, what sets us apart isn’t just a signature style—it’s how we bring classic design principles to life in real, livable spaces. Here’s a glimpse into a few of our favorite projects, each reflecting our “classic with a twist” approach:




  • The Modern Retreat – Sausalito
    Set above the bay, this home is all about calm sophistication. We blended natural textures with a breezy coastal palette to craft a space that feels like an everyday escape—light-filled, grounded, and welcoming.

  • Everyday Luxury – Belvedere
    This home was all about elevating the everyday. With soft circadian lighting, tailored millwork, and indulgent fabrics, we created a haven where form meets wellness—a space that invites slower mornings and restful nights.

  • The Restorative Escape – Mill Valley
    Tucked among redwoods, this home was designed to breathe with nature. Think warm neutrals, custom craftsmanship, and textures that connect the inside with the outside—all working together to soothe and restore.

  • Elevated Charm – Kentfield I & II
    In these sister homes, we preserved the character of the architecture while infusing the interiors with modern sensibility. The result? Spaces that feel both timeless and right-now.

  • Sophistication, Palm Hill Style
    Our Palm Hill residences are a celebration of casual elegance. We played with clean silhouettes, curated color choices, and layered textures to design homes that are as functional as they are refined.

  • Showcase-Ready – San Francisco
    Our work on the SF Decorator Showcase homes gave us the freedom to take creative risks—bold palettes, sculptural lines, and rich materials all came together to make statements that still feel enduring.
