The overall color trend for 2025 is based on two main concepts:
-
"Quiet Luxury": Moving away from bright and flashy colors, and opting for matte and saturated shades that suggest high quality and refined taste without exaggeration.

Connecting with nature: Drawing inspiration for colors from natural elements such as the earth, plants, and sky, creating a sense of comfort and relaxation within the home.

3. How do you choose furniture colors that match wall colors? (Questions and Answers section)
How do you choose a furniture color that matches the wall colors?
Use trendy colors (30%) with neutral walls (60%). For example, if your wall is off-white, choose furniture in olive green or navy blue.
Is light-colored furniture practical?
Yes, especially warm ivory white. The key is choosing treated fabrics that don't absorb stains, making it a stylish and practical option.
How do you balance the color of the furniture and accessories?
If you choose a bold, trendy color for your furniture (like burnt terracotta), keep the accessories neutral (like white or gray). If the furniture is neutral (like warm gray), use accessories in bold colors (like yellow or red).

Light colors like warm gray and ivory are best because they reflect light and make a space appear larger. A touch of olive green can be added in a small piece.
