4 Oct 2024

From tactile finishes to bold colour choices, surface design is stepping into the spotlight. Havwoods’ Product team reveal the standout wall and surface trends set to shape interiors in 2025 - exploring the materials, tones, and textures that are transforming how we think about space.

Beyond the floor: how surfaces are stealing the spotlight in 2025

When it comes to decorating, walls are one of the first elements considered in any interior scheme - colour, finish, and texture play a crucial role in setting the tone of a space. At Havwoods, we’ve continued to expand our wall surface collection throughout the year, offering a diverse range of striking, durable, and design-led solutions.

Trending terrazzo

Initially becoming popular in the early 20th century during the Art Deco era, where it graced the floors of grand public buildings, hotels and theatres, the terrazzo trend has experienced waves of popularity in communal spaces and homes over the last 100 years. Interestingly, the terrazzo trend has made a significant comeback in recent years and is expected to continue its momentum into 2025. 

With the application of Terrazzo in kitchens, on floors and in bathrooms becoming an increasingly popular choice; our new TreeAzzo collection will allow homeowners and designers to add dimension, colour and character to a room, improving the overall style and feel. Continuing to leave its impact on the modern world of home design; this trend is an excellent example of timeless aesthetics that will never go out of style.

Dopamine décor

Although neutrals remain popular, people are increasingly experimenting with brighter shades, with homeowners and designers incorporating more pops of colour into schemes. Known as the ‘Dopamine Décor’ trend, this approach focuses on creating an energising space that intensifies your overall mood and happiness levels through the use of colour.

Creating an eye-catching feature in any room, our entire Simplista collection can be primed and painted; giving our clients the freedom to inject any colour as well as texture they desire into their interior space with ease.

Fluted and reeded finishes

Fluted and reeded finishes will remain a prominent trend in the market with architects and designers frequently seeking out and specifying these types of designs. It’s a simple yet effective way of adding depth and individuality to a room and we are certain to see more homes and commercial spaces incorporate these finishes in 2025.

Perfect for use on cabinetry and furniture fronts, as well as on curved surfaces, our fluted Elegante collection is the ideal choice for those wanting to bring another dimension to interior spaces. Carefully milled, these veneers add elegance and interest to both vertical and horizontal spaces. Offering an array of colour options including a dramatic ebony or walnut, as well as classic oak or white oak, the possibilities for creating clean, bright finishes are limitless.

Warm textures and depths

 

Seeking to create more peaceful and relaxing environments, end users and designers continue to incorporate more organic shapes, finishes and colours in their natural format into walls and ceilings. Inspiring emotions of serenity and calmness; the natural appearance of these surfaces allows people to feel more connected to nature, something that continues to be prevalent in both the residential and commercial sectors. 

From veneers to raw textures and organic finishes, all our collections can assist those looking to achieve a deeper level of warmth and texture in their schemes.

Natural wood in kitchens

 

The use of natural wood in kitchens is becoming increasingly popular, and natural materials will undoubtedly continue to find their way into homes in 2025. Adding charm and a classic elegance to a kitchen whilst also increasing light and comfort in the room, people are embracing wood on all surfaces in the kitchen from floors and walls to cabinets and island fronts.

Darker colours such as walnut are a popular choice for kitchen cabinetry, helping to add more drama to the space, whilst a combination of painted and wood cabinetry is also a popular choice for end-users and designers.
