7 Bedroom Trends Will Dominate 2025, According to Designers
From biophilic design to color drenching, keep an eye out for these fresh looks.
As we reflect on this year's décor trends, it's clear that the way we design our bedrooms is evolving. We’re approaching a moment when bedrooms become reflections of our personal style—above all, of course, they'll also promote restful sleep.
“I'm particularly excited about where bedroom trends are heading in 2025,” says Laura Hammett, founder and creative director of Laura Hammett Interiors. “What's truly heartening is seeing a return to spaces that nurture our well-being and create a genuine sanctuary—something I've always believed is essential.”
Here, we spoke with interior designers to get the scoop on all the bedroom trends coming to the fore in the new year. Their answers may inspire your next home makeover.

1. Warmer Hues
It all starts with color. When you picture bedroom design in your mind's eye, let the color wheel spin to earthy hues. "The shift towards warmer, more embracing tones is something I'm seeing my clients gravitate towards more and more," says Hammett. "Rich beiges, warm chocolates, and subtle terracottas are creating cocoon-like environments that feel both grounding and luxurious."
This marks a distinct shift from the cool grays, whites, and blues established by long-lasting trends like coastal décor. It's a move you could see coming, though, given this year's cozier trends, including Japandi, quiet luxury, and demure décor. We’re now yearning for warmer colors, organic shapes, and spaces that feel deeply comforting and personal.
“Rich, earthy tones like brown are dominating bedrooms," says Alexis Woodbury Earman, interior designer and principal at The Woodbury Home. "It creates the same romantic charm that you can find outdoors.” These colors pair well with natural materials, like rattan furniture and wooden pole-wrap paneling.
2. Double Drenching
In 2025, color will become an immersive experience. “We love to build layers in the space,” says Kathryn Murphy, interior designer and principal at Kathryn Murphy Interiors. “We go all-in with pattern via small-scale wallpaper, or we use tone-on-tone double drenching.”
Double drenching is a technique introduced by British paint company Little Greene; it takes the color drenching trend one step further. Where color drenching immerses a room in a single paint color on all surfaces, double drenching pairs analogous colors of equal intensity. “The variation in hues, even when from the same color family, creates a layered look, with subtle contrast—it feels dynamic and visually intriguing,” says Ruth Mottershead, the creative director at Little Greene.
It is a trend that’s on fire right now. “Using two different colors—one for the walls and another for trim and baseboards—is gaining popularity,” says Paula Dixon, interior designer and principal at Paula Dixon Design. “Just envision blue walls paired with green trim, doors, and baseboards. If you want to pull this look off in a bedroom successfully, make sure to use the correct value of each color.”
3. Pattern Drenching
In a similar vein, bedroom wallpaper will go all-out next year. “I think we’ll see mid- to light-brown tones and all-over wallpaper,” says Lauren Sullivan, interior designer and principal at Well x Design.
All-over wallpaper, also called pattern drenching, applies pattern throughout the entire room—from upholstery, rugs, and textiles to walls and even ceilings. You can immerse a room in a single pattern, or mix two or more complementary ones. It may sound like a recipe for chaos, but in the right hands, a top-to-bottom pattern can make even a larger room feel cozy.
4. Biophilic Décor
Expect to see patterns, colors, and shapes that draw from Mother Nature next year. The impetus? A concerted shift towards eco-friendly elements has recently brought biophilic design to the fore. The trend is based on the principle that, as humans, we have an innate connection to nature, so incorporating natural elements into our living spaces improves well-being and enhances creativity.
“Incorporating natural elements, like plants, waterfalls, and rock walls promotes tranquility,” says Dixon. “It lets exterior and interior environments become one.” You can take the ethos a step further by adding natural furniture, materials, and textiles, as well as nature-inspired colors and patterns.
5. Shapely Furniture
Sharp angles are out, and soft lines are in. "In my recent projects, I've been incorporating plush, curved sofas and armchairs that invite you to sink in and unwind at the end of the day," says Hammett. "These softer silhouettes extend to everything—from sculptural side tables to gracefully curving consoles—creating a wonderful sense of flow throughout the bedroom."
Upholstered, amorphous headboards are another way to incorporate this trend, as well as nightstands and dressers with scalloped trim. The idea is to "mimic the perfect imperfection of nature, and add beautiful character into the space," according to Woodbury Earman. "There's something inherently soothing about these rounded forms," adds Hammett. "They help soften the space and make it feel more inviting.”
6. Mixing Materials
Stone and wood is a timeless combination—one you can expect to see even more in bedrooms next year. The contrast of hard and soft materials adds visual interest and texture to a space and complements a natural, rich color palette. “The era of whitewashed oak floors and stark white ceilings is fading,” says Dixon. “Imagine, instead, travertine floors laid in inventive patterns alongside walnut wood accents on walls and ceilings.”
7. Personalized Touches
Finally, you can expect to see a lot more personality in these spaces. Sullivan predicts this will be the biggest bedroom trend next year. “The most prominent theme of 2025 will be personal, collected spaces that tell the story of those who live there,” she says. “Think more antique and vintage finds, as well as incorporating special family heirlooms.”
It's all about striking a balance though. “When mixed well with new pieces, vintage furniture makes a space feel collected and layered," adds Dixon. “The room tells a story through its transition from new to classic, offering an unpredictable and inherently beautiful visual journey.”
In keeping with this, the bookshelf wealth trend continues to gather steam and could be coming to a home near you. Expect to see more books and cozy reading nooks in bedrooms next year. “We see an interest in creating personal spaces with areas to retreat to," says Murphy. "Often, this is achieved by building upholstered nooks that are just right for curling up with a book."
