The right sofa can serve as the centrepiece of your living space, setting the tone for your décor and colour palette. With countless styles to choose from—whether irresistibly cosy, highly supportive, modern, or classic—there’s a sofa for every taste and need.
Whether you're searching for a bold, colourful design to energise your living room or a stylish yet practical way to make the most out of your space, here are my top picks for interior trends in 2025:
1. Bold colours and patterns
Vibrant shades like emerald green, deep blue, and rich jewel tones will dominate interiors in 2025, adding energy and drama. Paired with bold geometric patterns, these hues create a striking, statement-making flair.
A bold sofa in one of these colours can act as a focal point, especially against neutral walls. Balance the look with geometric-patterned cushions, throws, or rugs, or embrace the trend subtly with colourful accessories.

2. Colour drenching
Colour drenching is a powerful interior design technique that’s all about making a bold statement by immersing a room in a single colour.
This technique involves using one hue across various elements of a room—from walls and ceilings to woodwork and radiators, it can completely transform your space.
3. Curved shapes
Rounded furniture, including curved sofas, will be a standout trend in 2025, bringing a softer, more inviting aesthetic to living spaces. These organic shapes create a sense of flow, ideal for open-plan areas, and pair well with rounded coffee tables or ottomans for a cohesive look.
Upholstery in rich textures like boucle or velvet enhances the curves, adding a touch of luxury to the design.

4. Multifunctional furniture
As modern homes evolve to accommodate diverse needs, versatile furniture has become essential — especially for those who work and live under the same roof or enjoy hosting regularly. It allows for efficient use of space year-round.
Adaptable pieces, such as sofa beds, modular seating, and multifunctional tables, will enhance utility, conserve space, and maintain a sense of style and practicality.
5. Maximalist aesthetics
Maximalism celebrates layering textures, colours, and statement pieces. When it comes to sofas, opt for designs with intricate detailing, such as tufting, bold upholstery, or even a mix of fabrics like velvet and leather.
Pair with an eclectic mix of cushions in contrasting patterns and tones to embrace the "more is more" philosophy without overwhelming the space.

6. Quiet luxury style
Quiet luxury emphasises timeless elegance and simplicity. Choose high-quality, minimalist sofas in neutral shades such as taupe, greige, or cream. Look for refined details like clean lines, sleek metal legs, or subtle stitching.
I’d recommend our Ferndale 3 seater for its elegance. It comes complete with the option of oak or walnut tapered legs. As it has a low-to-the-ground design, it certainly fits the minimalist aesthetic.
7. Warm wooden tones
Sofas with wooden accents, such as exposed wood frames or legs in oak or walnut finishes, will seamlessly tie into the trend of warm wooden tones. These elements add a touch of nature and cosiness to the room.
Pair your sofa with wooden side tables or a low-profile coffee table to create a harmonious, grounded living space.

8. Bringing the outdoors in
This trend can be incorporated by choosing sofas in earthy hues like moss green, clay, or terracotta, reflecting natural surroundings. Pair the sofa with botanical prints on cushions or throws and accessorise with indoor plants to blur the line between indoors and outdoors.
An earthy colour, such as green, is highly versatile, with a myriad of shades, and has the ability to blend in just about anywhere.
9. Chrome and metallic elements
While shiny, mirror-like chrome remains popular, the trend for 2025 will likely see a rise in matte and brushed chrome finishes. These offer a more subdued and contemporary aesthetic while retaining the elegance of chrome. Matte chrome in particular is seen as more versatile, blending seamlessly with various design styles from minimalist to industrial.

These 2025 trends reflect a blend of sustainability, comfort, and personality-driven design, which are likely to define interiors in the coming year.
A sofa is an investment and my recommendation is to always choose one that suits your lifestyle and that you’ll love for years to come.
