Pattern Design Trends of 2025 You Need Now
Patterns are hot, hot, hot in 2025. Whether they are on the walls, floors, textiles, or furniture, patterns are the favored design aesthetic of the year.
Here’s what's in and how to use trends in pattern design to greatest effect in your spaces.
Maximalism
Maximalist patterns celebrate boldness and eclecticism, often combining various textures, colors, and patterns in a single space. Think vibrant floral wallpapers, mixed prints, and ornate textiles layered together to create a rich and dynamic interior.
Quilting
In 2025, softness and warmth are in. The 3-dimentional, repeating square pattern that quilting provides ticks all the boxes.
Look for furnishings with a quilted finish, but it's great to add in a flatter format like a coffered ceiling or a square pattern on a vent cover.
Large Scale
Pattern will weigh heavily in 2025's designs. The most obvious feature you'll see is large scale. Florals will be larger than life. Geometrics will be grand. Contrast in color will be definitive. Whatever the pattern, you can count on it being big.
Natural
There was a huge emphasis on sustainability in 2025 and that will only escalate into 2025. Besides using natural materials used responsibly, you can cement your focus on sustainability with natural patterns.
Botanicals and animal prints are excellent. Don't forget wood and stone (especially those with heavy grain and veining) offer the most natural of patterns.
Pattern Tips
Too much or too many patterns can become overwhelming. Choose a neutral to ground a space with bold patterns. A simple wood or stone floor is an excellent foundation for the addition of patterns without it feeling overdone.
Layering
A huge trend of 2025 is the layering of different patterns in a single space. Don't be afraid to layer in classic, almost neutral patterns like plaid, stripes, and dots. They pair well with other, bolder patterns like chintz or heavy geometrics.
Vintage
Grandmillennial, vintage, and cottagecore continue to be favorites in 2025. Large-scale florals like chintz with its light background is an obvious choice. Anything with a sense of 1960s or 70s in bold colors and shapes is a good choice too.
Patterns with lots of detail often feel like they come from a time when weaving was an art form. French toile depicts scenes in the countryside and brings instant vintage vibes.
Moroccan
Inspired by the rich and intricate designs of Moroccan and Middle Eastern cultures, these patterns feature geometric motifs, arabesque shapes, and vibrant colors. They are often found on tiles, textiles, cushions, and lanterns, adding an exotic and bohemian flair.
Though our Scroll pattern is a favorite for Victorian designs, it is well suited to Moroccan styles too. The ornate pattern with geometric hints makes it a great choice.
Pattern Tips
Middle Eastern patterns command a design. Use bold colors alongside them to complete the look.
Geometrics
Easily identifiable shapes arranged in all sorts of ways is on trend in 2025 as well. They don’t have to be straight-lined, hard cornered shapes either. More curved shapes and combinations of shapes will work too.
Luckily, there are lots of options for your registers with geometrics. Try the elongated hexagons of Duncan or starry squares of Asher. Mosaic offers a mashup of circles and trapezoids for a more maximalist approach.
Pattern Tips
One thing you’ll see emerging in 2025 is Maximalism. In revolt of many years of minimalism, you’ll see the adoption of more textures, more patterns, more colors, and more décor all in one space.
Art Deco Revival
Inspired by the glamour of the 1920s and 1930s, Art Deco patterns are making a comeback in interior design. Characterized by geometric shapes, luxurious materials, and metallic accents, Art Deco patterns add a touch of sophistication and opulence to interiors.
Organic
Quite different from the regimented organization of more geometric patterns, organic patterns are almost not patterns at all. Their free-flowing nature has no repeats and follow no rules. Yet these patterns offer plenty of patterned structure to a space.
Curvilinear patterns feature curved lines that move as they would in the natural world. They are often in bold high-contrast colors that work in a sort of negative vs positive space format.
Try Versailles registers to achieve the look.
Damask
Damask patterns are commonly found on upholstery fabrics, curtains, and wallpaper. They are elegant and often associated with traditional or formal interiors. Damask features elaborate, symmetrical designs with a mix of floral and geometric motifs.
Consider Sunray registers to accompany your Damask patterned interior. Its geometric floral-esque look is a lovely addition.
Pattern Tips
As with 2024, 2025 will continue to embrace unique personalization in interior design. In a way, this removes the rules and lets you bring whatever makes you happy into the design.
Chevron
Chevron patterns have gained popularity in recent years. They consist of a repeated V-shape, creating a zigzag effect. Chevron can be used on walls, flooring, textiles, and accessories to bring a contemporary and energetic vibe to a space.
Try either our Herringbone or Chevron metal grilles to achieve a chevron complement to your interior design.
Digital Patterns
Advancements in technology have opened up new possibilities for creating and incorporating digital patterns into interior design. From digitally printed wallpapers to customizable digital displays, digital patterns offer versatility and flexibility in design.
Mix-and-Match
Embracing the idea of curated eclecticism, mix-and-match patterns allow for playful experimentation with contrasting prints, textures, and colors. This trend encourages personal expression and creativity in interior design.
