A new year is the perfect time to give your home a glow up by adding new coats of paint, accessories and even introducing new pieces of furniture. But just like fashion, home design trends come and go. So as we prepare to close the books on 2024, we wanted to know what’s going to be hot for the house in 2025.
We asked Traci Pollard, a Brooklyn-based interior and surface pattern designer and Account Manager at Blu Dot furniture company for her predictions for some of the hottest interior design trends for the new year. Check out some of her favorite Black-owned brands who she believes are showing the trends in the best way.
Deep Jewel Tones
Pollard says deep jewel tones will be everywhere in 2025, giving you plenty of options incorporate rich hues like cobalt, emerald, ruby and more into your space. The Park Armchair from Edloe Finch in blue velvet is a great way to add extra seating and style.

Don’t be afraid to go bold with your sofa. The Milo Emerald Green Velvet Sofa from 54Kibo is sure to be the star of the show in your living space.

When it comes to rich colors, no room is off limits. The Alma Counter Stool from the Marie Burgos Collection adds luxury to your kitchen.
Curvy Statement Pieces
If you’re looking to update your furniture, Pollard suggests thinking outside of the box and opting for curves instead. We love the unexpected rounded edges of the Drop Coffee Table from Oi Studio.
Curvy Statement Pieces
The Gilded Coffee Table from Black Rooster Decor is a beautiful brass table that looks more like a work of art than a piece of furniture.
Unexpected Pops of Red
Accent and decor pieces provide lots of opportunities to introduce color. We love this bold Abstract Wall Clock from Studio1514Brooklyn on Society 6.
Unexpected Pops of Red
Wall art in a bold print, like Flower Man from Uzo Art, is another great way to incorporate an unexpected pop of red into your space.
Unexpected Pops of Red
Pollard suggests using paint as a way to incorporate red in your home in unexpected ways. If you’re not looking to drench your walls in red, try painting a door or an accent wall in a rich shade of red, like Vintage from Black-owned paint company Clare.
Rich Wood
Pollard says if you’re looking to add new furniture like tables or cabinets, look for statement pieces made of rich wood. We love the Farmhouse Side Table – Pond from Goodee made of high-quality oak.

The Walking Natural Wood Bench from 54Kibo is a stunning statement piece that will only look better with time.
Wallpaper That Makes a Statement
Wallpaper is a great option for introducing color into an otherwise bland space. Pollard says when you’re choosing wallpaper for your home, the bolder the better, like this colorful print from Uzo Art.

Spruce up your bedroom or bathroom with unexpected prints like this Afro Pick Terra Cotta Wallpaper from Gregory Prescott on Society 6.
Quiet Luxury
At the end of a long day, your home is where you come to relax. Pollard suggests introducing soft colors and luxurious fabrics in your bedroom or living space to make it a place you want to unwind. The Brownstone Sage Embroidered Rug from Create the Culture is the perfect place to leave your slippers when you’re ready to sleep.

Available in floor and table lamp options, the Sucre Lamp from Karen Jai Home is a beautifully luxurious accessory that works in any room of your home.
