Deciding which colours to decorate your humble abode with is a HUGE decision. You will after all have to look at these shades day in, day out! The psychology behind interior colours could impact you in more ways than you think too, influencing your mood and even your productivity levels.
Colour has the power to transform how we feel, and could mean the difference between you leaving your house with a spring in your step each morning or a rather melancholy feeling. In addition to using psychology to help make crucial colour choices, turning to the latest interior colour trends for 2025 could just guide you to the perfect hues…
Earthy neutrals
Shades like clay, sandstone and taupe are all set to dominate the interior design scene during 2025. Colours that reflect our connection with nature are no new thing but will remain a top trend during the year ahead and beyond. Forest and olive greens are also at the forefront of many interior designers’ colour palettes, bringing a sense of tranquillity to spaces of all shapes and sizes.
Nature-inspired tones are perfect for grounding interiors for a cosy, calming atmosphere. They can be paired with bolder accents too for a more impactful finish. Explore earthy hues and the cosiest of homewares right here.
Rich and moody hues
Taking your interior colour choice even deeper is another trend set to take off for 2025. Deep greens (think moss and emerald), reds and purples (like aubergine, burgundy and merlot), and navy blues create a luxurious feel, whatever the room that’s ready for renovation.
While synonymous with the autumn and winter seasons – deep shades are ideal for creating cosy havens – they can be used to make big, bold statements all year round exuding a richness and sophistication that will always be on trend.

A sprinkle of cinnamon
For an earth-inspired tone that’s equally as rich and moody turn to Benjamin Moore’s Colour of the Year 2025, Cinnamon Slate. Described as “a delicate mix of heathered plum and velvety brown”, this tone is ideal for elevating a modern yet enduring aesthetic that you’re certain to adore for many, many seasons to come. We’ll let Benjamin Moore share all the juicy details of this hushed hue:
“These ‘in-between hues’ celebrate a more nuanced approach to colour. These are colours that are not oversaturated, so you won’t tire of them easily. They are adaptable and work with the lifelong curation of our homes as we swap in and move around items, forever combining new with old. These hues help us find our colour confidence without overwhelming a space. They feel comfortable and have a sense of familiarity but don’t fade into the background.”
Soft pastels
Muted tones like dusty rose, sage green, peach and cornflower blue are also being favoured for their versatility, warmth and suitability for every setting. There’s no denying that these shades add a calmness and freshness that’s truly invigorating. Pair soft pastels with more minimalist schemes for the very best results.
Pops of optimism
We love a bright pop of colour with yellows, corals and electric blues all able to uplift and energise spaces big and small. They’re also the perfect way to give your home a quick refresh for the new season. Use eye-catching brights sparingly for a balanced aesthetic by using accents of colour to liven up more muted or minimalist schemes.
