As the bite of the winter cold recedes into a distant memory, spring redecoration and refreshing is going on across homes, offices, hotels and other places of comfort and opulence. As with every season, spring has its associated palettes, moods, and ambience, with spring being particular for its sophisticated balance between tranquility and vitality. For spring 2025, here are the colours that are prominently shaping interior design trends.
Buttery Yellow
A spring classic, buttery yellow is here to stay; the colour staple for lovers of cheerful interiors that don’t feel overwhelming. How would you like to walk into a room that instantly envelopes you in warmth while invigorating you for whatever lies ahead? Mimicking the expansiveness of white, butter yellow opens up your space and makes your room feel kissed by the rising morning sun. Buttery yellow, which pairs well with shades of white, brown and wine.
Oceanic Blues
The deeply contemplative hues of oceanic blue—ranging from inky navy to mysterious teal—evoke the depths of the ocean while creating cocooning, reflective spaces and are a big hit this spring. We see oceanic blues feature in cabinetry, accent walls, in dining room settings and in other parts of the interior that are useful for an infusion of life and hope. Oceanic blues pair well with natural wood and textural elements.
Terracotta
The rich, earthy terracotta is a big feature this spring, appearing in everything from statement walls to textile accents and ceramic pieces. The immediate warmth that terracotta infuses into spaces is a cheat code to accelerate the radiance of summer. Great for connecting to natural landscapes and creating continuous spaces that blend the indoors with the outdoors, terracotta pairs elegantly with muted blues, sage and lavender.
Muted Sage
The verdant tone of spring is replicated via sage green in spring 2025, a muter preference over the emerald and forest greens that made the sweep in previous springs. Sage offers a soothing backdrop that emphasises a connection to nature, wellness, renewal and all things synonymous with growth and transformation. Perfect for primary wall colours, design focal point and furniture, the neutral nature of sage green also makes it easy to combine with other colours and textures.
Inspired Solid Colour Design
In a technicolour reenactment of ‘beige on beige’, daring designers, home-owners and hoteliers are opting for solid blocks of colour that flow seamlessly from room to room, creating spaces where each room has its own unique story and provides a particular ambience. Mixing textures, hues and lights across a spectrum of colours, these colour block spaces always elicit an unforgettable emotional response.
