The latest color palette has been announced from the Pantone Color Institute, and it’s a beautiful balance of earthy tones and energetic selections. While they are all so different, the 10 colors in the upcoming year’s palette go very well together–in duos and trios alike. Let’s discover the the way this year’s palette can create colorful interiors…
Meet the 2025 Palette
Didn’t we say it was an interesting mix? It’s a lot to take in, but you can do quite a bit with this palette! Featuring two blues, three greens and two brown-ish selections, there are so many options for color combining.
Say Hello to the Neutrals
These neutrals are warmed up from years past, soothing and interesting, with distinct undertones of color. These neutrals will add spirit to the home design color schemes of the coming year.
Color in the Kitchen
We’ve seen a lot of white kitchens in home design, and they are beautiful. But, when you love color–and you want to create colorful interiors in every room–how does that translate to the kitchen? Instead of just a backsplash, this homeowner has an entire wall of blue geometric tile. The cabinets follow the Mid-century Modern vibe, featuring a wood grain aesthetic on flat panel doors, in a stain color that combines with blue in a stunning act of contrast. The lower cabinets and countertop bring in this year’s Moonbeam neutral to complete the ideal trio.
Dining in Style
When you think of home design colors, you probably wouldn’t expect the pairing of yellow and orange to look so good. But, in the dining room featured below, this odd couple makes a dramatic statement! The trick is in the balancing act. Pops of orange and the fluted fabric bench are just enough to fill this dining area with personal style and energy, while the soothing wallpaper, white furniture and wood toned flooring keeps this space from overwhelming its visitors.
A Calming Mudroom
Many of us think of our “drop zone” as a chaotic mess. But, this one, with its floor to ceiling cabinetry, painted in that soothing hue of light green? This proves that the mudroom deserves attention–and color. The caramel colored baskets are not only vital for storage that you’d like to remain hidden, but they tie in the bench seating. Genius.
The Intentional Color Details of This Living Room
We always look forward to seeing a pink/purple hue in the Pantone top 10, and this year’s Crocus does not disappoint. The energy of this color is designed to invite luxury, with possibilities of fun and bold styling. The upholstered chairs offer a one-of-a-kind look in this living room, upstaged just slightly by the artwork above the fireplace. It’s probably the green frame that’s stealing the show, but the boom box definitely has “Say Anything” vibes.
The New Modern
When you think of the word “modern” it probably conjures up visions of sleek, shiny surfaces and trending colors. Today’s modern leans more toward flat finishes and warmed up colors. Think organic, natural stone with muted tones. Shape comes into play, pairing corners and curves in a delicate balance. The blue and beige flooring offers a nod to colorful interiors without overwhelming the space, especially when some of the color in the grand scheme of things will be coming from the outdoor views. If you have a chance to make the natural world part of the design, do it. You won’t regret it. Floor to ceiling windows are an incredible backdrop for your home. The right window coverings in this situation are important–they allow you to enjoy the view and light without harsh rays and glare.
If this is the year you’re feeling inspired by the colorful interiors you’ve seen, our designers can help! Window treatments are often called the art of the window–for good reason. Not only do they provide a ton of benefits, but they enhance the style of your home and bring all of the design elements together.
