2025 Spring Home Trends: Where Softness Meets the Bold
After a long winter season where coziness, warmth, and earth tones were the focus throughout your home, we are now emerging into a bright new chapter ahead - spring. Cue the sigh of relief because we couldn’t be more thrilled - for the warmer days and the intriguing decor trends already making their way into homes. As the days stretch longer and the lasting sunshine begins to awaken your creativity, it’s time to freshen up your living space to reflect the new season before us. So what’s making waves and catching interest early into this year? Let’s explore the new and oh-so-inviting trends the 2025 spring season is already offering up.
Eye-catching Spring Trends
While autumn and winter boasted a cozy, collected aesthetic, one that invited in subdued earth tones and seamlessly mixed comfort with elegant touches, spring is all about bringing energy back into your space in subtle ways that make a big impact. The cozy feel is still very much a part of the picture, but with it comes bolder accents, organic textures, whimsical touches and a larger draw to vintage pieces. All of these touches work together to create a living space that feels luxurious and appealing yet always down-to-earth, one where you can both entertain and fully relax in. This season is all about revitalized energy and pieces that are interesting, unique and slightly quirky, combining the classic with a vintage-modern feel.
Oh-So-Bold Accents
The truth is, as you may know, neutrals have been the safe, popular choice for a while now, shifting from greys to warm beige tones, to eggshells and barely-there creams. This spring season is leaning towards soft pastels over the neutrals of the past, with light peaches and pale blues making a noted appearance. Paired with bold accents, we are really liking the stylish contrast that is created. Darker tones like shades of navy, rich greens or hints of charcoal have been emerging in the form of accent colours. So exactly how does one pull this off? This look can be achieved in accent items like couches, throw pillows, vibrant green plants around your space, framed artwork, rugs or feature walls. These minimal touches of richer colour add energy and eloquence to your space. They balance out the lighter tones and are a budget-friendly way of cultivating a new layer of sophistication in your home.
FYI: There are some great wallpaper selections out there to help you achieve that feature accent wall look.
Florals
Yes, all of the springtime clichés are running strong right now but florals truly are a trend worth paying attention to. They follow similar guidelines as any bold accent colour and can become the very same thing - a beautiful accent in your space. If you’re looking for a less-permanent way to experience the floral trend, you can incorporate them into your space through various decor items. This can look like actual vases of flowers to awaken each room, floral patterned throw pillows, artwork, rugs or feature accent walls. These subtle pops of colour from the floral imagery do not have to be overpowering but just enough vibrancy your home has been craving this spring.
Soft and Rounded Edges
Another trend coming in full swing this season is soft, rounded curves and edges. As opposed to hard lines, sharp angles and distinct edges, we are seeing a return towards the smooth elegance of a rounded edge. There is something so inviting about a room that showcases this kind of fluid look and you may begin to notice, more and more, how this style welcomes in flow, ease and an appealing feel the more you spend time with it. This can look like the classic rounded arched doorway into rooms. If you’re not opting for a doorway reno, you can achieve this trend through rounded ottomans, tables, lamps, circular framed artwork, or other decor items that have a feminine scalloped edge.
Natural Decor Elements
Incorporating natural elements into your home is a trend that is continuing on into spring, bringing with it an airy lightness that is sure to invite in all that desired serenity. This can look like large leafy plants, wooden items like wicker baskets and cabinets, furniture with warm wood tones, woven rugs, clay vases or other stone decor pieces. There is an earthy groundedness that comes with incorporating these natural elements into your space, like welcoming nature indoors - and these small changes can make a huge impact, uplifting the feel of the whole room.
Mixing Vintage with Modern
While vintage furniture and decor pieces have been a popular choice for home trends for a few seasons now, this style choice is coming in especially strong this spring. The key to pulling off this look? Finding that perfect balance between vintage and classic, modern pieces. It’s mixing the traditional look of modern elegance with vintage-era charm in a way where both styles compliment each other. This can look like adding a vintage cabinet or console table to a modern-feeling room, collecting eclectic art pieces to create an interesting gallery wall or repurposing pieces you already have with a coat of paint in a new colour you’re eager to try.
All About Your Preferences
Trends, especially ones that emerge with the changing of seasons, are great anchor points to uncover the styles you truly enjoy in your home. The beauty is, you can achieve these fresh designs and new looks in very budget-friendly ways, from accent colours to new coats of paint on the walls. You truly have an abundance of creative freedom and possibility available to you when it comes to designing and revamping your living space. When you begin to notice the looks and styles you are naturally drawn to, combining them with current trends, you are on track to cultivating a home you absolutely adore and love spending time in.
Your home is your sanctuary, after all. It should feel restful, inviting, and beautiful, always - the soft place to land and come back to.
