2025 interior design trends are injecting personal style and lively energy into Adelaide homes with the use of colour, texture, textiles and design.
While calmness and comfort continue to be the focus, this year sees bold indoor styling trends projecting more personality into homes designed to minimise our environmental impact with smart technology, eco-sustainable materials and energy efficiency.
Eco-Friendly Sustainability
The buzzword this year is ‘eco-chic’ – with eco-friendly sustainability at the forefront of many interior styles. Whether it’s the use of natural textiles, organic materials or repurposed furniture items that reflect elements of ourselves, reducing our environmental impact simply doesn’t go out of fashion.
Colour
The paint charts are featuring the much-loved earthy, natural colours we’re used to, but things are ramping up a bit with the addition of bold colour this year.
Warmth comes from a limited use of rich terracotta tones, while a splash of nature’s green and blue hues continues to keep the mood cool and calm.
In previous years subtle injections of muted colour have softened the effect of ghostly whites, but this year we’ll see more vibrancy and depth giving impact to the interior colour palette.
The Japandi Trend
The what trend, you say? Check out the Adelaide properties for sale that have used professional home staging and you’ll be sure to see a stunning blend of Japanese and Scandinavian home styling elements… known as Japandi style.
The Japandi look introduces soft curves, low-rise furniture and neutral colours with a lesser degree of Scandi-style minimalism than seen before, for a stunning aesthetic. This interior trend incorporates curved shapes, fine textures and contrasting tones (moreso than colour) to create soothing energy with interest.

Biophilic Wellness Spaces
Another trend of recent years that will likely stay the course, creating wellness spaces within the home facilitates the calmer, wellbeing-focused lifestyle we seek.
Biophilic design blends the outdoors with the indoors using elements such as water features, gentle lighting and indoor gardens to create a sense of calm in transitional spaces throughout the home.
Furniture and Furnishings
Keeping last year’s neutral base of fresh whites and natural tones, you can introduce 2025 style and energy with new soft furnishings and furniture pieces. With comfort a priority, choosing oversized sofas and plush chairs with rounded edges to add casual comfort to family living spaces.
Wallpaper is back, along with patterned or textured tiles, rugs and cushions. Layered pieces upon a neutral base will add lively energy to your home environment.

Home Styling Tip
When injecting more personality into your interior style beware of introducing clutter that clashes. A bold piece of art or furniture, statement tiling or striking soft furnishings such as rugs or cushions is all that is needed to retain the quiet vibe while adding a splash of character.
