Top 7 Home Design Trends in 2025

Building a new home is exciting — but let’s be honest, it can also feel a little overwhelming with all the design choices you’ll be making along the way. The good news? You don’t have to have it all figured out right from the start. That’s exactly what having the right team by your side is for!

If you’re starting to dream up ideas or looking for inspiration, checking out what’s trending in home design is a great place to start.

✨ Here are 7 of our favorite design trends to keep an eye on for 2025!

1. Au Naturel

   In our recent “Home Design Trends for 2025” blog, we highlighted how today’s buyers are continuing to take cues from nature when designing their homes. That influence shows up most in the heart of the home — the kitchen.

   
   

   Natural materials bring an undeniable warmth and balance, making the space feel welcoming and lived-in.

   Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) remains a favorite, not only for its durability but also for its ability to mimic beautiful wood grains. This year, lighter tones like Scandinavian oak and soft honey hues are leading the way, giving kitchens a bright and airy feel.

   
   

   We’re seeing the same shift with cabinetry, too — stained wood finishes are making a strong comeback, adding texture and depth to modern spaces.

   
   

   

2. Quartz

   One big reason quartz continues to be such a popular choice for kitchen countertops is simple — it just makes sense. It’s durable, low-maintenance, and stands up beautifully to daily wear and tear. You don’t have to worry about chips, scratches, or stains, which makes it perfect for busy households.

   
   

   But practicality isn’t the only reason homeowners love quartz — it’s also gorgeous. Each slab has its own character, with unique veining and color variations that bring warmth and personality to a kitchen.

   
   

   Right now, we’re seeing more people lean toward lighter, softer tones — think warm neutrals with gentle veining — rather than the cooler grays and blues that were popular in past years. It’s a timeless look that feels fresh, bright, and natural.

   
   

   

3. Go Bold

More and more homeowners are looking for opportunities to add character and movement to their home. Most often, they focus on either the primary bath or powder room.

4. Accents

   This is another trend that lets homeowners put their own stamp on a space. Modern black hardware remains popular, but we’re seeing a big shift toward pairing it with contrasting tones and charming, antique-style finishes for a look that feels both timeless and unique.

   
   

   

5. Black Windows

   How popular are black windows right now? — about 9 out of 10 choose black exterior and black interior windows.

   It’s a distinctive, sophisticated look that feels both modern and timeless. No wonder black windows are one of the hottest trends in home design.

6. Siding's Softer Side

   When it comes to exterior siding, we’re seeing more homeowners gravitate toward soft, warm whites. One of the favorites right now is Herringbone — it’s not too bright, not too creamy, just that perfect in-between shade that gives a home a warm, welcoming feel.

   
   

   

7. Exterior Accents

   Siding isn’t the only way to make your home’s exterior pop! Black details are having a major moment — from windows and doors to trim, gutters, and even garage doors. They instantly give a home that clean, contemporary edge everyone’s loving right now.

   
   

   Take a drive through a newer neighborhood and you’ll see exactly what we mean — this trend is everywhere!
