2025 Fall Design Trends We’re Actually Using

Not every trend is worth jumping on (we’re looking at you, open kitchen shelving), so we’ve put together the top 2025 fall interior design trends that we’re actually recommending to our clients because they’re smart, stylish, and feel right at home even after the season changes.

Fall is the perfect time to warm up your home, swap out a few key pieces, and lean into the cozy-meets-polished vibe that defines good design this time of year. Ready to get started? Pick out a few of our faves from below and see for yourself:

Brown Is the New Black

Warm, rich browns are everywhere this fall and for good reason. From chocolate to cinnamon to deep espresso, brown tones add depth and softness to any space.

Where to use it:

  • Velvet or leather accent chairs
  • Walnut-toned side tables
  • Earthy brown throws or pillow covers

If your space is feeling a little cool or sterile, this is an easy way to warm it right up.

Moody Jewel Tones

Goodbye, soft sage and dusty rose. Hello, emerald, plum, and navy. This season’s color palette is deeper, moodier, and made for layering.

How to bring it in:

  • A bold sofa or pair of chairs
  • A statement rug or large-scale art
  • Accent paint on a single wall or built-in
  • Velvet pillows in rich, saturated tones

These hues look amazing with brass, wood, and the browns we just talked about.

Curves Continue

If it’s rounded, we’re into it. Curved furniture and accessories are still going strong, and they help soften all the straight lines you find in city apartments.

Look for:

  • Rounded-back chairs or sofas
  • Arched mirrors or lamps
  • Even curvy decor objects like bowls or vases

Curves add movement and softness, especially in modern spaces that feel a little too clean or rigid.

Oversized Moments

We’re loving the move toward fewer, larger pieces instead of a bunch of small ones. It creates instant drama and makes the space feel more intentional. But keep it balanced and be mindful not to go too big for your space.

How we’re styling it:

  • One large-scale art piece instead of a gallery wall
  • An oversized floor lamp that acts like sculpture
  • A chunky storage coffee table that grounds the room

This trend works especially well in open layouts or studio apartments where you need each item to pull double duty.

Mixed Materials

Fall 2025 is all about texture—think wood, metal, stone, and fabric all playing together in one room. Mixing materials keeps a space visually interesting without relying on bold colors or patterns.

Some of our favorite combos:

  • Cane + leather
  • Linen + dark wood
  • Metal + marble
  • Bouclé + brass

If your room feels flat, chances are it needs more texture, not more stuff.

Quiet Livable Luxury

Yes, “quiet luxury” is still trending, but we’re translating it into real-life design. That means clean lines, natural materials, and high-quality pieces that don’t scream for attention.

What we’re doing with it:

  • Swapping out cheap plastic bins for real woven baskets
  • Replacing worn-out lighting with solid, stylish fixtures
  • Investing in one timeless piece (like a quality chair) instead of five throwaway items

You don’t need to spend more, but you do need to spend smart and design with intention.
