Summer 2025 Home Decor Trends You’ll Love

Summer is here, and there’s no better time to refresh your home with a dose of golden light, a touch of holiday nostalgia, and a splash of whimsical charm. Whether you're craving the calm of a Mediterranean escape or the cosy feel of a rustic cottage, the interior design trends for Summer 2025 are all about warmth, serenity, and slowing down.

From Pinterest's latest trend forecasts to colour palettes that soothe the soul, we’re diving into the home decor trends you’ll be seeing everywhere – and how to bring them to life in your own space.

The Pinterest Trend Report: What’s In for Summer 2025?

According to Pinterest’s Summer 2025 Trend Report, Gen Z has spoken and this year, interiors are all about embracing rustic aesthetics, thrifted finds, and bringing the outdoors in. Think earthy tones, vintage charm, and a strong connection to nature.

Searches for ‘thrifted home’ are up by 488%

‘Rustic retreats’ have risen by 172%

‘Farmhouse cottage interiors’ surged 370%

This trend celebrates the imperfect, the storied, and the sentimental. Expect to see more homes filled with character: reclaimed wood furniture, handcrafted details, and second-hand treasures that tell a story. Whether you're decorating a city flat or a country cottage, the idea is to create a space that feels lived-in, layered, and deeply personal.

 

 

Colour Trends: Serene Hues and Summery Pops

Pinterest’s 2025 Colour Report predicts that serene hues will dominate the season. Soft, calming tones that evoke nature and tranquillity. From sage green and powdery lilac to calm sky blues, these muted shades set the tone for quiet, peaceful interiors.

But it’s not all soft neutrals. Expect playful pops of colour to make an appearance too, with bolder tones like cherry red, butter yellow, and alpine oat adding vibrancy to otherwise minimalist spaces. The balance between soothing tones and cheerful brights is what keeps Summer 2025 interiors feeling fresh and joyful.

 

 

The Rise of Pastel Farmhouse

If cottagecore had a warm-weather update, this would be it. Pastel Farmhouse is one of the biggest interior trends this summer, a romantic, countryside-inspired aesthetic brought to life with a lighter, brighter palette.

Rooted in rustic charm and natural textures, this trend mixes weathered wood, vintage furniture, and biophilic patterns, now reimagined in gentle tones like faded lilac, light coral, and sage green. It’s a dreamy, sun-drenched version of farmhouse style and perfect for long summer days.

 

 

Cafécore: A Love Letter to Slow Mornings

Enter Cafécore, the emerging lifestyle trend that’s taking over interiors in 2025. Inspired by warm, coffee-toned colour palettes and cosy café aesthetics, this look is all about slowing down and savouring the moment.

Pantone’s Colour of the Year, ‘Mocha Mousse’, leads the way, part of a broader move towards chocolatey browns, caramel shades, and rich, espresso-inspired hues. Paired with check patterns, dark wood, and curated vintage finds, cafécore brings a sense of grounded comfort that works in every season.

While traditionally associated with autumn, brown is now being embraced as a year-round staple, timeless, versatile, and surprisingly fresh for summer interiors.

Nature-Inspired Interiors: A Fresh Take on Biophilic Design

One of the most enduring home decor movements of the year, biophilic design (or nature-infused interiors) continues to evolve for Spring/Summer 2025.

It’s no longer just about houseplants. This season’s nature-inspired spaces focus on organic materials like rattan, linen, stone, and marble, paired with warm, earthy tones such as terracotta, sand, and olive. The shift is clear - we’re moving away from stark minimalism towards spaces that are layered, tactile, and full of soul.

Look for soft, breathable fabrics, natural textures, and furniture that invites you to stay a while. It’s about creating a home that feels connected to the world outside; calm, restorative, and grounded.
