2025’s palette is all about balance—between bold and serene, earthy and playful, timeless and trend-forward. Whether you’re planning a full room makeover or just looking to refresh your home with a few new accessories, embracing the latest colour trends is an easy and inspiring way to update your space.
Here’s a look at the top colour trends for 2025—and simple, stylish ways to bring them into your home.
Warm Neutrals Are Back (And Better Than Ever)
Goodbye cold greys—2025 is warming things up with taupe, sand, mushroom, and soft terracotta tones. These versatile hues offer a grounded, calming backdrop that works in almost any room. Try swapping out cool-toned textiles for beige or clay-toned cushions and throws. Choose ceramic vases or lamps in warm stone shades and layer different neutrals for a subtle, curated look.
Organic Greens & Botanical Hues
From sage to olive to deep forest green, this year's greens are inspired by nature and designed to soothe. These tones bring the outdoors in, perfect for creating a relaxing, biophilic atmosphere. Add leafy green cushions to a neutral sofa or introduce green glassware or plant pots into your kitchen or dining space. You could also paint a feature wall in sage and pair it with natural wood and rattan decor.
Sun-Baked Earth Tones
Terracotta, burnt orange, ochre and rust tones are here to stay. These colours are warm, characterful, and perfect for adding energy and richness to your space. Try mixing in patterned cushions or rugs in sunset shades or tableware or planters in rust or ochre for a pop of colour. You can use these as accents against neutral walls or natural wood furniture.
Wistful Blues & Dreamy Pastels
Soft blue is having a major moment—think sky blue, dusty denim, and ice blue pastels. These shades are cooling, comforting, and bring a subtle elegance to any room. Layer pastel blue bedding for a breezy, spring-ready bedroom and use blue ceramics or wall art for a coastal-inspired look. Try combining blue with soft grey or blush for a gentle, modern palette.
Unexpected Pops of Lavender & Lilac
This year’s wildcard? Lavender and lilac. These modern purples add personality and playfulness—without feeling overpowering. Use them sparingly for a fresh, contemporary twist. Introduce lavender-toned cushions, candles, or glassware and pair with neutrals like sand, cream or olive to ground the palette.
How to Try These Colours Without Commitment
