Home Decor Pieces That Are Out in 2025
To make way for fresh ideas, some trends must step aside. Here’s what you should bid farewell to this year:
1. Plain White Walls
Sorry, blank white walls—your time is up! While they’ve ruled the minimalist trend for years, 2025 shifts towards warmth and vibrancy. Bold paints, ornate wallpapers, and texture-rich finishes are redefining ‘neutral.’ “People want their homes to feel alive and personal, with pieces that have history, character, and personality,” says AD100 interior designer Brigette Romanek.
2. Fast Furniture
The age of cheap, disposable furniture is over. Not only do these pieces fail in durability, but they contribute to environmental waste. Consumers and designers alike are leaning heavily toward artisanal, bespoke furniture made to last.
3. All-Gray Everything
Gray-on-gray palettes feel cold and dated. 2025 embraces warmth, color, and vibrancy—jewel tones and earthy hues are officially replacing the grayscale monotony.
4. Generic Metal Wall Sculptures
We’ve all seen one too many big-box-store metal décors—typically a random metallic shape pretending to be “art.” We’re trading these forgettable pieces for more custom and meaningful artwork in 2025.
5. Open Kitchen Shelving Everywhere
Open kitchen shelving had its moment, but maintaining that perfect, staged look? Exhausting. For 2025, closed cabinetry with updated materials (think fluted or textured finishes) takes the lead.

You know “Live, Laugh, Love” in fancy script or anything with “But first, coffee”? Yeah, those might just “phase out.” If you’re clinging to these, it might be time to explore fresh typography art or something abstract. (We’re looking at you, Etsy fans!)

Sustainable and Tech-Integrated Pieces Are the Future
Sustainability is more than a buzzword. It’s a movement that’s re-shaping interior design—and 2025 is all about sustainable home decor.
- Reclaimed materials: Expect furnishings crafted from locally salvaged wood or metals. Designers are loving these unique, eco-friendly textures.
- Energy-efficient tech: Smart thermostats and mood-setting LED lighting are now blending function and aesthetic. Not only is this practical, but it’s a chic touch for minimalist homes too.
- Eco-friendly paint and finishes: Low-VOC and water-based paints continue to trend, ensuring your space is as healthy as it is stylish.
Pair this with tech—automated blinds, appliances hidden seamlessly within custom cabinetry—and you’re looking at the home of tomorrow.
How You Can Incorporate These Trends Today
Want your home or projects to reflect the best trends of 2025? Here’s how to get started:
- Experiment With Color: If you’re wary of bold paints, start small! Accent walls and removable wallpaper are low-risk, high-reward options.
- Sustainability First: Opt for vintage furnishings or pieces from trusted ethical brands. Furniture markets are great for finding unique gems.
- Tech and Functionality: Look for off-the-shelf smart furniture options like coffee tables with built-in wireless charging!
- One-of-a-Kind Details: Explore custom artwork or handmade ceramics, anything that brings a personal story to your space.
And remember, “Be faithful to your own taste, because nothing you really like is ever out of style.” – Billy Baldwin
