Every day begins and ends in the bedroom, a space designed to be both calming and motivating. Being bold while experimenting with different styles is one of the most captivating ways to add personality to a bedroom. “When you allow different aesthetics to harmonize, a bedroom gains depth, intrigue, and a uniquely vibrant personality that feels both curated and spontaneous,” explains Valentina De Santis, who oversaw the Passalacqua hotel’s 18th-century bedroom renovations.
Here are some bedroom trends that designers anticipate in 2025. There is something for everyone, regardless of whether you are looking for peace and quiet or something livelier.
1. Moody Hues
In 2025, darker, more somber bedroom hues are anticipated. According to Becky Shea, creative director and founder of BS/D, “a dark bedroom creates a warm, cocooning effect that enhances comfort and relaxation, making it the perfect sanctuary within a home.” “A nurturing atmosphere is created by the way darker tones interact with light, gently refracting rather than reflecting it, like being encased in a warm, protective space.”
“Inky blues, dusty plums, and chocolate brown will give bedrooms a luxurious backdrop in the new year,” says Emily Vaughan, owner of Emily Vaughan Interior.
Anna Kroesser, a partner and principal designer at Kroesser + Strat Design, states that the colors will be somber but in a cozy way. “They’re perfect for the bedroom where people want to curl up and unwind because they’re not overtly dark.”
2. Punches of Pattern
Bedrooms will be covered in patterns by 2025. According to Vaughan, “a chintz fabric will be the ideal choice when applying a single fabric to walls, windows, and furniture.” A calm scene is created by layers of traditional textiles. According to Laura McKoy, creative director and vice president of interior design at Omni Hotels & Resorts, “big florals and modern plaids combined with striking textures will be very popular in the new year.”
3. Out-of-View Technology
“Bedrooms will be peaceful havens with minimal and frequently hidden technology in 2025,” predicts Tiffany Matthews, founder and designer of Motif Homes. Electronics will be hidden from view with features like foot-of-the-bed TV chests, hidden speakers and charging stations, and under-bed lighting.
“We wanted to find a way to conceal the TV so it didn’t detract from the room’s historic decor because our guests expect a flat-screen TV in every room,” adds De Santis. “A steamer trunk at the foot of the bed was a perfect and distinctive way to achieve our goal; beautiful wood and leather trunks add to a vintage aesthetic while concealing modern technology.”
4. Prioritizing Wellness
In 2025, bedrooms that emphasize comfort and well-being will become more popular. “Bedrooms are evolving from practical places to sleep to incredibly intimate havens intended to uplift and rejuvenate. We’ll keep using layered textures, carefully chosen artwork, and movable lighting to create soothing sensory components in the new year,” says Marie Cloud, owner and principal designer of Indigo Pruitt.
5. Simple Bedding
The monastic bed is a popular design for 2025 because of its simple forms and emphasis on use over ornamentation. According to Michael Fowler, creative director at Michael Fowler Creative, “people don’t want to take a million pillows off their bed at night and then have to put them back on in the morning.” “Much easier to make and more stylish to look at, we’ll be seeing simpler bedding that includes a blanket, throw, and lumbar pillow.”
Laura Lubin, founder and principle designer at Ellerslie Interiors, continues, “We’re moving away from excessive bedding and opting for a few bold moments—an oversized Euro pillow or a uniquely textured lumbar pillow—to keep the look sophisticated yet relaxed.” “A bed looks elegant without compromising comfort thanks to this thoughtful, well-balanced layering.”
6.Wall-to-Wall Carpeting
This once-common floor covering is returning. “A single flooring material can make a small space feel larger, and its soft feel underfoot is unbeatable,” Vaughan adds. “A bedroom gains a strong point of view when a wall-to-wall carpet in a saturated solid color makes a bold, grounding statement.”
Natural and colorful wall-to-wall carpeting contributes to a calming bedroom. According to Jamie Welborn, senior vice president of residential carpet product development at Mohawk, “it brings warmth and tactility that helps people feel safe and relaxed.”
7. Personalized Aesthetics
In the new year, bedrooms will tend to have a more functional look, with designers using comforting textures, meaningful hues, and furniture and accessories that their clientele can relate to. The owner and founder of Nadia Watts Interior Design, Nadia Watts, states that the goal is to “personally reflect the person who lives and sleeps in that room.”
8. Statement Headboards
In 2025, headboards with vivid hues and fanciful designs like scallops and arches, as well as materials like tufted velvet and corduroy, will be popular. According to Moshe Halberstam, interior designer at Vänt, “this reflects a shift away from traditional minimalism and towards a highly curated, personalized bedroom.”
According to Joelle Henning, senior designer at HBA San Francisco, “headboards with a vertical channel tuft and upholstery in warm caramel leather or bright velvet will give a sense of softness.” According to Victoria Armour, co-owner of Stil James, they can also offer much-needed respite in a space that is full of hard surfaces like stone, metal, glass, and wood.
9. Ambient & Layered Lighting
Bedroom lighting will highlight adaptability and atmosphere. “Dimmable, layered lighting that combines overhead fixtures, table lamps, and sconces will accommodate a range of moods and functional requirements,” explains Cloud. According to Marker, materials like textured and antique brass will provide a dash of retro charm while making sure the lighting is cozy and soothing.
10. Purposeful Accessories
In 2025, well chosen accessories that offer personality without being overbearing will be in style. According to Georgia Gourzela, an interior designer for Andronis, “accessories will be fewer in number and ideally handmade.” With fewer but more significant elements, they will be purposeful. “Consider artisanal ceramics, vintage finds, and personal art collections,” advises Cloud.
According to Piper Skillman, president of Piper Skillman, “in the new year, we’ll be focused on vignettes and pairing a few highly individual accessories to balance the overall room, rather than a more effusive look, which can come off cluttered.”
11. Traditional Beds
In 2025, spindle, canopy, and four poster beds will be in style. But according to Fowler, “they’re not the heavy wood monstrosities of the ’80s and ’90s, nor anything you would see in a Victorian television show.” “Slender metals and less imposing, colorful woods are being imagined for today’s beds.” “There’s something cozy and timeless about a bed with height to it,” adds Galey Alix, designer and content creator at Galey Alix Design.
“Basically, by combining comfort with a sense of subtle luxury, we’ll be creating sanctuaries that feel like a deep breath after a long day,” Lubin explains.
12. Earthy Elements
Bedroom aesthetics will continue to be influenced by organic and biophilic design, which combines earthy, natural materials with sleek, modern lines. “A bedroom will feel more cozy and peaceful with shades of clay, olive green, soft taupe, and mineral blue,” explains Vyanca Soto, lead designer and owner of Market Studio Interiors. In addition to being warm and inviting, these hues offer a flexible background for highlighting the bedroom’s textures and finishes.
According to Kate Marker, the owner and lead designer of Kate Marker Interiors, earthy clay hues and sage greens will also be popular in 2025. “They go well with layered textures and create a calm, low-stimulation environment.”
Additionally, designers and homeowners will prioritize sustainability by selecting eco-friendly and ethically sourced materials. Rich textures like velvet will be combined with organic, textured textiles like cotton, linen, and bouclé to create a cozy and genuine look. According to Cloud, “natural accents like driftwood and woven baskets, along with houseplants, will continue to add organic touches to the bedroom.”
13. Hardworking Closets
One important bedroom element is a well-designed closet. According to De Santis, “closets are an extension of personal style and an essential element of a well-organized space.” “When everything in a well-designed closet is easily accessible and tastefully arranged, you can go about your everyday routine with ease.”
In the coming year, having the correct amount of space—which includes unique shelving, intelligent lighting, ingenious storage options, and finishes that make organization seem effortless—will be more important than having more space. According to Lubin, “it will be about making every inch of the closet work.”
According to Rebecca Roberts, founder and main designer of Method + Moxie, “colorful paint, wallpaper, and whimsical light fixtures will be used to dress up walk-in closets.” According to Armour, there will be a greater need for tech integration such as smart lighting and built-in charging stations, so they will also become more of a dedicated area that links to the bedroom.
14. Hints of Color
According to De Santis, “playing with colors that genuinely change a space produces an immersive experience, inspiring feelings of joy, tranquility, and romance.” In 2025, color will take the neutral bedroom’s haptic and sensory elements to the next level. “Instead of the soft white look-alike bedrooms that have been flooding our feeds lately, bedrooms will start to look more unique through the use of color,” Armour says.
“In 2025, the bedroom scene will be dominated by neutral color schemes with bold pops of color,” concurs Jennifer Press, chief designer and founder of Press Interiors.
“We’ll also see more color drenching in bedrooms, which is a design technique where a single color or a related color palette is painted throughout the room, including the walls, ceiling, woodwork, and doors,” says Fowler. “Consider jewel tones, such as deep blues, greens, and even deep purples; the effect is like being hugged from the inside out.”
