If you’re someone who likes to stay on top of trends, then you’ll know even the most popular trends can be here today and gone tomorrow. Not every trend has staying power, so to keep your home looking its best in 2025, EZ Living Furniture is here to advise you on the home decor trends from this year that won’t be sticking around in the New Year.

Minimalism Living Room Style 2024 Trend

Minimalism Is Out….For Good

Every dog has its day and it seems minimalism has had theirs. Minimalism is out for 2025 and while some would argue that white walls and crisp linen fabrics reflected a clean and refreshing aesthetic, it also seemed to give off a cold, clinical and uninviting environment. Thankfully, next year we’re embracing colour and not just neutrals. Instead of boring white walls and minimal decor, we’re incorporating rich tones, personality-fuelled patterns, and lots of texture. 2025 is all about authenticity!

Say Goodbye To Matching Suites

It’s true, matching your furniture is a thing of the past! It’s time to lean into a new tradition of mixing and matching. Instead of pairing your sofa with its corresponding armchair, embrace contrasting to its fullest. For instance, don’t be afraid to pair a vintage wing chair with an uber-modern sofa with a low back. 2025 is all about showcasing your personality using furniture and accessories.

Lighter Wood Tones Are A Thing Of The Past

According to our interior experts, lighter-coloured wood won’t be as sought after in 2025. Yes, you read that right! The trends have us shifting away from bright, Scandinavian-style finishes and moving toward richer colours and more sustainable-friendly wood. In the New Year, we’re embracing cashew, smoked oak, and dark timber wholeheartedly. It’s not just the dining table that’s getting a new look, it’s the entire home - so think dining chairs, sideboards, display cabinets, shelves and even bed frames.

Light Blues Are Out, Berry Purples Are In

This year, we’ve seen several colour trends come and go, but none featured as prominently as one particular shade - a powder blue tone, which completely stole the limelight. 2025 is looking to be different though and instead of a dusky blue, we’re turning our attention to purple, a rich berry purple to be precise. 2025 interiors are set to be filled with drama and character and no shade does drama better than a deep plum purple.

Brushed Brass Is Being Phased Out

That’s right, it seems warming brushed brass fixtures are being phased out in 2025 and replaced by cooler metals. Stainless steel handles, curtain poles, and silver home accessories are all the rage for the New Year and we’ll be seeing a lot more of them. We have to admit, that while we love warm metals, this new trend is a refreshing alternative to the bronze and brass that has dominated our homes in recent years.

So, as you can see refreshing your home for 2025 has never been easier - if you follow our expert advice that is! To learn more about our interior predictions, specifically our bedroom forecasts in 2025, read; Bedroom Trends In 2025 here.
