As we all know, every year, spring makes everything new and fresh again. And not just in nature but also in the home. The decorating trends for spring 2025 show exactly what this looks like. This much can already be revealed: it will be colorful, dynamic, and light(er). So, are you ready for a touch of spring freshness within your own four walls? myHOMEBOOK author and interior designer Odett Schumann presents the latest spring decorating trends.
Trend 1: Accessories as Bold Color Accents
Color will continue to play a major role this year. It will be used particularly boldly in accessories in 2025. However, to avoid an overly garish and wild look, the trend is leaning towards a more monochromatic approach. However, it is the kind of monotony that is anything but boring but instead appears extremely interesting. This is ensured by the colors alone, which dress everything from vases and bowls to cushions and lamps to entire side tables in bright to bold colors this year. Shades such as indigo blue, red-orange, lemon yellow, and even terracotta will create particularly unusual accents in the living room in 2025.
Trend 2: The Classic Printer’s Tray Makes a Comeback!
Who would have thought it, but this year, the good old tack box is actually celebrating a brilliant revival! Interpreted in a modern way, it is no longer exclusively made of wood – as we used to know it. Now, it can also be made from other materials. In the version for 2025, your passion for collecting can also be housed in a metal construction or a combination of wood and metal. The key is to have a variety of small compartments to artfully display cherished miniatures and collectibles. Incidentally, not all of the compartments need to be filled, as this makes the display case appear less cluttered and more casual.
Trend 3: Vintage and Retro Products
Interior fans are increasingly turning to real design objects, especially when it comes to accessories. However, as these are usually too expensive to buy new, vintage pieces are often used as an alternative. Whether from the flea market, classified ads, or grandma’s attic, there’s always an old treasure somewhere that just needs to be freed from the thick layer of dust and given a new lease of life. And just like that, your own four walls are enriched by a special treasure such as an old wing chair, desk, or floor lamp, but above all, they are more unique.
When it comes to kitchen appliances and technology products, however, this decorating trend in spring 2025 is often more in the direction of retro designs. In other words, the goods are new, but the look is based on another era. Particularly popular at the moment are emphatically minimalist models, such as those often seen on coffee machines, toasters, and record players. The focus is on functionality with minimal embellishments.
Trend 4: Hello, Colorful Block Stripes!
Stripes are one of those things: sometimes they are particularly thin, almost line-like, and then they can’t be wide enough. The fact is, stripes will be indispensable in 2025. This year, exaggeration is once again dominating the trend, and block stripes are in demand. And that’s not all: now that color is everywhere, such designs can be extremely colorful – but they don’t have to be! For sofa covers, vases, wall decorations, or even rugs, for example, combinations in bright duets of pink and orange, very harmonious old pink and wine red, or neutral in a strong color alternating with cream or white are in demand. Either way, this decorative trend is sure to lift spirits in spring 2025.
Trend 5: Mocha Mousse as a 2025 Decorating Trend
The Pantone color of the year, Mocha Mousse, is surprisingly well-received in interior design. So, it’s no wonder that it’s also a must-have in the decorating trends for spring 2025. The warm, rich light brown, which is reminiscent of a creamy latte or the finest chocolate, radiates a lot of coziness in the living room. Especially in combination with cream, the ambiance could hardly appear more elegant, natural, and calm. The interesting thing is that mocha mousse is in demand for comfortable seating furniture in the living room as well as for all accessories. Choosing this color trend for items like ceramics, candle holders, and cushions is a surefire way to enhance your decor this year. The soft brown also looks remarkably good on vases and rugs.

Trend 6: Tinted Glass Vases with Colorful Spring Flowers
Which decoration belongs to spring like the sun belongs to summer? Undoubtedly, the vase. After all, everything blooms anew during this time of year, and all the colorful, fragrant flowers have to be deposited somewhere and displayed magnificently. Not only in nature but also in the living room, all the sprouting plants radiate an enormous amount of good cheer and even more liveliness. Embrace this decorative trend of spring 2025 with sculptural glass or grooved ceramic vases adorning your dining table, sideboard, and windowsill. The transparent version, in particular, is geared towards the new joy of color in the living room. And if you don’t have green fingers or are sensitive to fresh flowers, simply place a no less beautiful dried bouquet in your tinted glass vase.
