1. Biophilic Design: Bringing Nature Indoors

What It Is

Biophilic design integrates natural elements into architecture and interiors to deepen the human connection with nature. This goes far beyond adding decorative plants. It can mean living walls, indoor courtyards, natural daylight planning, or even tactile materials such as raw stone, timber, and natural fibres. Indirect elements include nature-inspired patterns, lighting that mimics circadian rhythms, or art that evokes organic landscapes.

Publications like Architectural Digest and Martha Stewart Living highlight its 2025 evolution: luxury homes increasingly feature sculptural planters, green roofs, and vertical gardens that blur the boundaries between inside and outside.

Why It Matters in 2025

A systematic review published in Frontiers of the Built Environment (2024) found that biophilic elements can lower cortisol by 15–20% and improve recovery in healthcare settings. Broader research from INTEGRIS Health shows that natural environments reduce stress hormones, improve cognition, and support long-term wellbeing.

In Mediterranean settings like Marbella or the Côte d’Azur, biophilic design also reduces energy use through passive cooling and supports biodiversity—directly aligning with EU sustainability goals. Reports from Salone del Mobile note its dominance in luxury homes, both for wellbeing and for long-term value.

How to Incorporate It

For compact Paris apartments, add moss walls, modular planters, or indoor aromatic herb gardens. In larger Marbella villas, introduce indoor courtyards, koi ponds, or olive trees under retractable glass roofs. At LVE-Design, we’ve implemented Andalusian projects with reclaimed stone and bioluminescent lighting that mirrors natural daylight cycles — explore examples on our France page.

2. Cultural Fusion & Artisanal Craftsmanship

Unique Handcrafted Pieces: The Soul of a Space

What It Is

The essence of true luxury in 2025 is the handmade. Heritage craft and cultural storytelling bring visible human touch and history into the home: Moorish zellige from Andalusia, handwoven Moroccan rugs, Provençal pottery, Andalusian ceramics, and Indian bone inlay. Today this evolves into crafted maximalism—layering global artisan pieces within modern, minimalist shells so spaces feel contemporary and timeless. Industry authorities highlight this shift toward collectible, provenance-rich design: Artsy covers the rise of artisanal design as a serious category, while Decorilla identifies handcrafted detailing as a defining marker of luxury credibility. Authenticity shows up in irregular textures, natural imperfections, and objects with traceable origin stories that add depth and narrative.

Why It Matters in 2025

In design capitals like Paris and Marbella, clients at the top end of the market are looking for more than beautiful spaces—they want interiors that feel personal, rooted, and connected to culture. Commissioning or sourcing from regional artisans does more than create one-of-a-kind rooms; it also strengthens craft economies and supports sustainable design practices. Handmade pieces hold their value because they are distinctive, repairable, and tied to cultural heritage. Publications such as Architectural Digest España frequently highlight Andalusian craft and heritage design as touchstones for luxury interiors, underscoring how these traditions remain relevant in contemporary homes. Museums and cultural institutions also continue to emphasise the role of craftsmanship in preserving identity while shaping modern taste, reinforcing its place at the heart of thoughtful design.

How to Incorporate It

The key is balance. A Moorish zellige floor can be paired with understated, modern furniture so the craftsmanship shines without overwhelming the room. Mashrabiya-inspired carved screens work beautifully as functional dividers while doubling as sculptural statements. In a Marbella villa, we layered hand-blown Moroccan lanterns with sleek Italian seating to achieve warmth and contrast—examples of this approach can be seen in our Spain projects. In Paris, gilded mouldings paired with Japanese washi lights or hand-dyed silks create a dialogue between classic European heritage and refined Asian craft.

3. Neo-Minimalism with Opulent Touches

What It Is

Neo-minimalism moves beyond the stark austerity of classic minimalism. It brings in tactile richness—honed marble with subtle veining, patinated brass that mellows with time, velvet upholstery, and layered neutral palettes. The look is serene but not sterile, luxurious yet understated. It shares Japandi’s calm clarity but adds a restrained grandeur through statement textures and considered materiality.

Design authorities increasingly highlight this as the natural evolution of warm minimalism. Dezeen describes it as a shift towards interiors that are “quiet but expressive,” while Elle Décor frames it as a move away from clinical minimalism into something more livable and indulgent.

Why It Matters in 2025

Homes are no longer just shelters; they’re sanctuaries. Research by the Global Wellness Institute links minimalist interiors with reduced stress and better mental clarity, especially in dense urban environments. Demand for this aesthetic continues to rise as clients seek balance between digital overload and physical calm.

For Mediterranean villas, neo-minimalism fits naturally: open plans and concealed storage highlight craftsmanship while supporting relaxed living. In Paris, it allows period architecture to shine by paring back visual clutter, letting mouldings and fireplaces take centre stage. It’s also an investment strategy—properties designed with minimalist yet opulent detailing consistently perform well in resale markets.

How to Incorporate It

The formula is simple but nuanced: begin with a neutral base—warm stone, soft lime plaster, or pale oak—then layer with tactile richness. Honed marble counters, velvet chairs, microcement walls, and subtle metallic accents elevate restraint into quiet luxury. In Parisian apartments, pairing smooth walls with a statement marble fireplace creates impact without excess. In Marbella, we often design open layouts with concealed joinery, punctuated by patinated brass detailing for depth.

At LVE-Design, we’ve integrated these elements across our Spain projects to create homes that feel timeless yet contemporary. To explore how this approach could shape your property, see our interior design services or begin a conversation through our contact page.

4. Natural Textures & Rustic Touches

What It Is

Luxury design in 2025 is embracing materials that feel authentic, grounding, and tactile. Reclaimed oak beams, honed limestone, woven rattan, and coarse jute are being reintroduced into high-end spaces, not as rustic clichés but as part of a new language of rustic elegance. When paired with polished finishes—brass detailing, smoked glass, or fine upholstery—these natural elements create contrast and richness without slipping into farmhouse pastiche.

Design observers describe this shift as part of the organic modern movement. Houzz trend reporting highlights the growing use of reclaimed and natural finishes in luxury homes, while HomeWorld Design notes that imperfection, tactility, and raw surfaces are increasingly positioned as a hallmark of comfort-driven luxury.

Why It Matters in 2025

As daily life becomes more digitised, clients are turning to interiors that feel grounded and sensory. Textured environments don’t just look beautiful—they support wellbeing. Research from the American Society of Interior Designers (ASID) links tactile engagement with increased creativity and reduced anxiety, a finding that resonates strongly with homeowners seeking spaces that restore balance.

Sustainability is also central. Reclaimed wood and natural stone lower environmental impact and bring authenticity to a project. Studies from the World Green Building Council confirm that using reclaimed timber can cut embodied carbon significantly, aligning luxury interiors with ecological responsibility. In Mediterranean markets, these rustic materials also serve a functional role: limestone floors and lime plaster regulate temperature naturally, while terracotta and oak evoke the Andalusian and Provençal heritage that grounds our studio’s ethos.

How to Incorporate It

The art lies in composition. A woven jute rug can anchor a living space, while rattan chairs or oak beams add structural warmth without heaviness. In Provence, limestone floors paired with hand-trowelled plaster walls create timeless solidity. In Marbella, rustic finishes are elevated by pairing them with sleek brass accents or frameless glass to maintain sophistication.

At LVE-Design, we’ve curated villas where courtyards blur boundaries between indoors and outdoors, bringing rustic textures seamlessly into contemporary living—explore these projects on our France portfolio. To learn how natural textures can be layered with high-end finishes in your own property, visit our interior design services or connect with us directly through our contact page.

5. Statement Colours & Patterns: Finding Your Voice

What It Is

Although soft neutrals remain a staple, 2025 is defined by a confident return to statement colours. Deep terracotta, rich olive green, and warm mustard yellow are taking centre stage—not as random pops, but as carefully selected hues that anchor and define a space. Alongside these tones, designers are embracing pattern in its many forms: bold geometrics, hand-drawn botanicals, and abstract motifs that introduce rhythm and narrative into interiors.

This isn’t colour for colour’s sake—it’s part of a broader design shift. Elle Décor identifies saturated tones as central to contemporary luxury, while Architectural Digest highlights the revival of historical motifs like Portuguese azulejos and Catalan hydraulic tiles as enduring sources of inspiration for high-end projects.

Why It Matters in 2025

After years of pared-back palettes, today’s clients want homes that reflect personality, heritage, and place. Earthy tones draw directly from Mediterranean landscapes—terracotta recalling Provençal clay, olive echoing Andalusian groves, mustard reflecting Balearic sunlight. Patterns also carry cultural weight, connecting interiors to centuries-old traditions while reinterpreting them for modern contexts.

For high-net-worth clients, colour and pattern aren’t fleeting fashion—they’re markers of individuality and cultural storytelling. When used with restraint and purpose, they elevate interiors into spaces that are both memorable and deeply personal.

How to Incorporate It

The best approach is intentional layering. Start with impactful but controlled applications: a statement wall finished in Venetian plaster, an upholstered armchair in deep olive, or patterned drapery that introduces movement without overwhelming. Pair these bold elements with grounding neutrals—linen, natural wood, or honed stone—to maintain balance and sophistication.

At LVE-Design, we’ve applied this philosophy across our project portfolio, curating palettes that feel both timeless and site-specific. For a deeper look at how statement colour and pattern can transform a space, explore our interior design services or connect with us through the contact page to discuss a bespoke scheme for your property.

6. Sustainability & Circular Design: An Ethos of Timelessness

What It Is

Sustainability has moved far beyond being a design trend; it is now a core principle of luxury living. In 2025, the focus sharpens on circularity: reusing and reimagining materials so that interiors embody both permanence and integrity. Reclaimed oak beams, recycled stone flooring, and renewable fibres such as hemp or organic cotton are being elevated from “alternative” materials to luxury essentials. Far from compromising on beauty, they introduce patina, tactility, and authenticity—qualities that cannot be mass-produced.

Why It Matters in 2025

High-net-worth clients increasingly expect their homes to reflect not just taste but also values. In France, evolving environmental regulations for construction are reshaping material choices, while Spain is advancing its own green building initiatives. Beyond compliance, these materials bring stories: the grain of reclaimed timber, the weathering of aged limestone, or the softness of naturally dyed textiles. Such features ground a project in both ecological responsibility and cultural depth, while also aligning with the global movement towards a circular economy.

How to Incorporate It

A sustainable scheme starts with the material story. Specify reclaimed oak for bespoke joinery, recycled stone for flooring, and organic or PET-recycled fibres for upholstery and drapery. Prioritise suppliers who offer repair, refurbishment, or take-back programs to ensure longevity. In our practice, we have integrated these principles throughout our interior design services and demonstrated their impact in our project portfolio, where eco-conscious materials are blended seamlessly with high-end aesthetics.

For clients, this means luxury without compromise: interiors that are elegant, durable, and ethically aligned. To explore how sustainability can be embedded into your own project, visit our contact page to begin the conversation.

7. Technology-Integrated Living: The Art of Disappearing Tech

What It Is

The future of luxury interiors is not about homes overflowing with visible gadgets. It’s about technology that quietly disappears into the design. The most refined spaces use voice-controlled lighting concealed within plaster cornices, hidden acoustic systems, motorised blinds built into ceiling tracks, and smart glass that shifts from clear to opaque with a touch. Even automated furniture—such as television lifts or adjustable-height dining tables—works in service of simplicity and elegance rather than spectacle.

Why It Matters in 2025

For discerning clients, true luxury is convenience that doesn’t compromise beauty. Lighting systems programmed to follow natural circadian rhythms promote wellbeing, while discreet environmental controls reduce decision fatigue. Smart shading can regulate heat gain in Mediterranean villas, cutting cooling costs, while hidden AV systems preserve the historic detailing of Parisian apartments. Industry reporting confirms that integrated smart features are no longer considered add-ons but a standard expectation in high-end property, with Dezeen noting how leading architects are embedding invisible tech into both heritage renovations and contemporary builds.

How to Incorporate It

The secret is to plan integration early, during the architectural and joinery design stages. This ensures wiring, hubs, and hardware are concealed from the outset. At LVE-Design, we create schemes where lighting tracks are buried into plasterwork, speakers vanish into ceilings, and joinery hides entire control systems. The result is a space that feels seamless and intuitive rather than cluttered.

For real-world examples, explore our project portfolio, where Marbella villas and Parisian apartments demonstrate how discreet automation supports beauty. To discuss a tailored approach for your home, learn more through our interior design services or connect directly via our contact page.

8. Floor-to-Ceiling Drama: The Grand Statement

What It Is

Curtains are no longer a finishing touch—they are architectural elements in their own right. In 2025, designers are embracing floor-to-ceiling drapery that amplifies scale, adds drama, and softens acoustics. Mounted from ceiling height, these treatments elongate proportions and create a sense of grandeur. The choice of fabric is crucial: heavy velvet for warmth and intimacy, flowing silk for elegance, and relaxed linen for understated luxury.

Why It Matters in 2025

In cities like Paris, tall Haussmann ceilings come alive with full-height curtains that celebrate the architecture. In Mediterranean villas, expansive glass façades are tempered by sheer drapery that filters sunlight and cools interiors. Beyond aesthetics, floor-to-ceiling curtains improve acoustics in open-plan layouts and support sustainability by reducing heat loss in winter and solar gain in summer. House & Garden points out that oversized drapery is one of the defining style markers in contemporary high-end interiors, signalling not only elegance but also craftsmanship.

How to Incorporate It

Achieving this look requires precision. Curtain tracks should be mounted flush to the ceiling or recessed into coves for a seamless effect. Allow generous stack-back so windows remain fully visible when open. For a polished look, fabrics should just “kiss” the floor for modern spaces or pool slightly for a more romantic, relaxed feel.

At LVE-Design, we use this approach to heighten proportions in Marbella villas and to restore grandeur in Paris apartments—examples can be seen in our project portfolio. For bespoke guidance on specifying textiles, hardware, and proportions, explore our interior design services or reach out via our contact page.

9. Layered Window Treatments: The Art of Light

What It Is

Layered window treatments have become a signature of refined interiors in 2025. Instead of relying on a single solution, designers combine sheer drapery, Roman shades, roller blinds, and heavy curtains to create nuanced control over privacy, light, and mood. This layered approach also introduces visual depth: the interplay of fabric weights, textures, and transparencies transforms a window into a curated focal point.

Why It Matters in 2025

Light is one of the most powerful tools in interior design, shaping both atmosphere and wellbeing. Layering treatments allows clients to modulate daylight throughout the day—soft sheers for a filtered glow at noon, blackout shades for deep rest at night, and patterned Romans for warmth and personality. In Mediterranean climates, layered blinds and curtains also provide an effective way to regulate solar gain and cooling costs. Architectural Digest highlights how top designers increasingly treat windows as sculptural elements, using multiple treatments to balance comfort, aesthetics, and function.

How to Incorporate It

Start by defining function: is the goal privacy, light diffusion, or energy performance? From there, build a hierarchy. A concealed roller blind offers a clean base; ripple-fold sheers bring softness; a heavier curtain or Roman shade completes the scheme with drama and insulation. Fabrics should complement each other without competing—linen paired with wool, or silk combined with textured cotton, for instance.

At LVE-Design, we have implemented layered solutions across our project portfolio, from Marbella penthouses where sheers temper intense sunlight, to Paris apartments where patterned Romans add intimacy. To explore how we can tailor layered treatments to your property, visit our interior design services or begin a conversation through the contact page.

10. Energy-Efficient Solutions: Smart, Sustainable Style

What It Is

With rising energy costs and growing environmental awareness, energy-efficient design has become a cornerstone of luxury interiors. Treatments like cellular blinds, motorised curtains, and thermally lined drapery are now seamlessly integrated into high-end schemes. These solutions do more than regulate light—they actively manage heat, insulation, and comfort without compromising aesthetics.

Why It Matters in 2025

For discerning clients, efficiency is no longer about sacrifice but about quiet luxury—homes that maintain perfect comfort while using less energy. Cellular blinds, for example, create an insulating honeycomb structure that reduces heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer. Motorised shading can be programmed to track the sun, preserving views while cutting cooling costs. According to the Energy Saving Trust, properly specified window treatments can significantly improve a home’s thermal performance, making them as much an environmental investment as an aesthetic one.

How to Incorporate It

The key is integration. Pair cellular blinds with decorative drapery for a solution that’s both technical and beautiful. In Mediterranean villas, motorised curtains can close automatically at sunset to retain cool evening air; in Parisian apartments, thermal interlinings discreetly add insulation to historic windows. Hardware should be concealed within coves or tracks, ensuring the technology never distracts from the design.

At LVE-Design, we embed these solutions within our interior design services, ensuring every project is as efficient as it is elegant. Explore examples of integrated energy-saving design across our project portfolio, and if you’d like to discuss tailored solutions for your own property, begin the process through our contact page.

11. . Kitchens with Colour: Personalised Culinary Sanctuaries

What It Is

The all-white kitchen is giving way to a more personal, expressive approach. In 2025, kitchens are defined by bold colours, bespoke detailing, and custom finishes that reflect individuality. Deep forest greens, inky blues, warm terracottas, and even oxblood reds are emerging as favourites, paired with high-end materials like honed marble, brass hardware, and natural timber. This is not about chasing trends—it’s about creating a culinary sanctuary that feels like the heart of the home.

Publications such as Elle Décor highlight how designers are moving away from clinical uniformity, instead embracing saturated tones and handcrafted detailing as a hallmark of luxury kitchens.

Why It Matters in 2025

The kitchen has become more than a place to cook—it is the social and emotional centre of the home. High-net-worth clients now view it as a key investment space where design choices should reflect personality as much as functionality. Colour plays a vital role here: it sets mood, signals confidence, and creates lasting impact.

From a practical standpoint, bold kitchens also support property value. Thoughtfully chosen palettes combined with bespoke joinery and artisanal finishes distinguish a home in competitive markets, appealing to buyers who want character and exclusivity rather than formulaic design.

How to Incorporate It

Begin with cabinetry in a bold yet timeless shade, such as deep green or navy, then layer with tactile finishes—brass handles, natural stone worktops, or hand-glazed tiles. In Parisian apartments, statement marble fireplaces can be echoed with richly veined stone backsplashes. In Spanish villas, open shelving offers a stage for colourful ceramics, weaving local culture into the everyday rhythm of cooking and entertaining.

At LVE-Design, we have created kitchens that balance function with emotional depth, from heritage-inspired French ranges to contemporary Mediterranean layouts. Explore examples in our project portfolio, or discover how our interior design services can help shape a kitchen that reflects your lifestyle. For those ready to take the next step, reach us directly via the contact page.

12. . Sculptural Lighting & Layered Illumination: The New Jewels of the Home

What It Is

Lighting in 2025 has moved far beyond function—it has become sculpture, atmosphere, and identity. Statement chandeliers, hand-cast sconces, and asymmetrical floor lamps act as focal points, while layered illumination—ambient, task, and accent—creates depth and adaptability. Materials are just as important as form: alabaster, blown glass, bronze, and linen shades add tactility and warmth, turning lighting into the “jewellery” of a space.

As Dezeen reports, the most compelling projects use lighting to bridge art and architecture, blending technological innovation with craftsmanship.

Why It Matters in 2025

Good lighting changes everything. It sculpts how architecture is perceived, reveals textures, and sets the mood for living. For wellbeing, circadian-friendly LEDs mimic the natural rhythm of daylight, while dim-to-warm sources restore evening intimacy. In Parisian apartments, a sculptural pendant can transform a grand dining room into a dramatic entertaining space. In Marbella villas, discreet wall sconces combined with lantern-style pendants create intimacy within expansive, open-plan layouts.

Lighting is also a financial investment: buyers consistently value homes where lighting has been thoughtfully designed, as it signals both quality and longevity.

How to Incorporate It

The key is layering. Begin with ambient light for overall balance, add task lighting for function, then introduce accent fixtures for drama. Scale is critical: oversized chandeliers for large rooms, delicate sconces for hallways, and low-hanging pendants for dining tables. Whenever possible, conceal tracks and wiring so the fittings take centre stage.

At LVE-Design, we curate lighting schemes that feel as considered as the architecture itself. Our project portfolio showcases examples where sculptural fixtures elevate both classical and contemporary settings. To explore how tailored lighting design can transform your property, learn more through our interior design services or speak directly via the contact page.

13. . Pattern Drenching: The Immersive Experience

What It Is

Pattern drenching is one of 2025’s boldest moves: the use of a single motif repeated across multiple surfaces—walls, curtains, upholstery, even flooring—to create a fully immersive environment. Far from chaotic, this approach relies on discipline and cohesion. The result is a room that feels enveloping, intentional, and deeply atmospheric.

Patterns may draw on heritage—classic toile de Jouy, Moorish-inspired geometrics, or floral chintz—or be entirely contemporary, using abstract or digital designs. As Wallpaper* Magazine highlights, this technique has become a hallmark of confidence in design, balancing maximalist expression with curated restraint.

Why It Matters in 2025

Clients increasingly want homes that tell a story and reflect a distinctive identity. Pattern drenching achieves this by creating spaces that feel memorable and transportive, almost cinematic. It connects strongly with heritage: English country houses used it for romance, Moroccan riads for geometry and rhythm, and Parisian salons for layered elegance. Today, reinterpreted through a luxury lens, it offers individuality in a world saturated with uniform interiors.

Beyond aesthetics, pattern-rich rooms stimulate the senses and influence emotional response, which is why hospitality spaces—boutique hotels, private clubs—are adopting it widely. High-net-worth clients now expect their residences to have the same level of visual storytelling.

How to Incorporate It

Start with a hero pattern that captures mood and scale. Apply it generously—wallpaper, upholstery, and drapery—but balance it with plain-toned flooring or simple casegoods to give the eye a place to rest. In Provence, a floral motif might envelop a bedroom for intimacy; in Andalusia, a geometric tile pattern can flow from floors up walls, creating architectural rhythm.

At LVE-Design, we approach pattern drenching with sensitivity to both heritage and context. Examples can be seen in our project portfolio, where curated repetition transforms interiors into layered experiences. To discover how this technique can be tailored to your home, explore our interior design services or start a conversation through the contact page.

14. Dramatic Drapery: The Final Flourish

What It Is

Drapery has stepped out of the background and into the spotlight. In 2025, curtains are more than functional—they’re sculptural, tailored statements that define the character of a room. The artistry lies in the details: triple pinch pleats that create rhythm, cartridge headings for a softer wave, bullion fringes or contrast bands that frame the fabric. Materials matter too—embroidered linen, raw silk, or heavy velvet stitched with metallic thread—all of which carry texture, weight, and presence.

House Beautiful notes that bespoke drapery has become a benchmark of craftsmanship, with hand-finishing and fabric selection now seen as markers of true luxury.

Why It Matters in 2025

Luxury today is defined less by excess and more by craftsmanship that can be felt, not just seen. Well-designed drapery brings softness to sharp architectural lines, improves acoustics, and regulates light and temperature. For high-ceilinged Paris apartments, it restores grandeur; for Andalusian villas, it tempers strong sunlight while adding a layer of romance.

Beyond comfort, drapery signals investment. Buyers recognise the permanence of custom textiles and the subtle prestige of hand-finished detailing, making it both an aesthetic and financial enhancement.

How to Incorporate It

Success lies in proportion and finish. In contemporary interiors, wave headers or sleek cartridge pleats keep lines calm and understated. In more classical settings, hand-stitched pleats, fringes, and trims add richness and depth. Choose interlinings not only for drape but also for acoustic and thermal performance.

At LVE-Design, we specify drapery as part of a larger architectural vision, ensuring fabric choice and detailing feel integral rather than decorative. See how textiles elevate spaces in our project portfolio. For tailored guidance on fabric selection, hardware, and proportion, explore our interior design services or begin a collaboration through the contact page.

15. Art Deco Revival: Glamour Reimagined

What It Is

The optimism and glamour of the 1920s and ’30s are making a powerful return in 2025, reinterpreted for modern living. The Art Deco revival blends geometric motifs, lacquered finishes, marquetry, and rich metals with a contemporary sensibility. Think scalloped edges, ribbed glass, and bold chevrons—translated into furniture, lighting, and architectural detailing that feels both nostalgic and new.

The Victoria and Albert Museum describes Art Deco as a style of “luxury and modernity,” a definition that remains relevant today as designers pair historic vocabulary with clean-lined forms.

Why It Matters in 2025

For high-net-worth clients, Art Deco offers a language of glamour, confidence, and cultural heritage. It resonates in Parisian apartments, where period architecture provides a natural backdrop, and in cosmopolitan Marbella, where the style’s geometric energy aligns with modern luxury living. Beyond aesthetics, Deco interiors carry investment value: they signal timeless taste and connect properties to one of design history’s most enduring movements.

In a climate where interiors often lean towards minimalism, Deco brings richness without excess—luxury that is bold, structured, and unmistakably confident.

How to Incorporate It

Introduce Deco-inspired detailing with restraint: chevron-patterned flooring, lacquered cabinetry, or ribbed-glass partitions. Pair bold jewel tones—emerald, navy, burgundy—with brass or chrome for contrast. Sculptural lighting, such as tiered chandeliers, can act as centrepieces that echo the era’s drama.

At LVE-Design, we weave Deco language into projects with sensitivity to context. In our France portfolio, restored chevron floors have been paired with streamlined furniture for a fresh interpretation. In Marbella, we’ve used stepped geometry and polished metals to inject Deco glamour into contemporary villas. To explore how this aesthetic can be tailored to your property, see our interior design services or connect through the contact page.

16. Warm Earth Tones & Moody Hues: The New Neutral

What It Is

The sterile, all-white interior has given way to palettes that feel richer, moodier, and more grounded. In 2025, the most sophisticated schemes are built on deep earth tones and atmospheric hues—tobacco brown, oxblood, aubergine, olive, and midnight blue. These shades are layered onto walls, textiles, and casegoods, creating a cocooning effect that feels both intimate and elevated.

As Architectural Digest highlights, earthy and moody palettes are defining contemporary luxury because they pair beautifully with natural textures like wood, brass, and stone while offering a timeless alternative to plain neutrals.

Why It Matters in 2025

Colour profoundly influences mood. Earth tones bring calm and warmth, grounding occupants in a way stark whites cannot. In Paris, deep aubergine dining rooms or olive-toned libraries feel atmospheric and chic. In Mediterranean villas, terracotta and sienna hues echo the region’s clay and stone, balancing the intense brightness of southern light.

From an investment perspective, these palettes also signal permanence. They reflect a curated, confident taste that appeals to buyers seeking more than trend-driven design, helping properties stand out in a crowded luxury market.

How to Incorporate It

Begin with a feature space—a dining room in oxblood, a study in olive, or a bedroom wrapped in aubergine. Balance these rich colours with natural textures: walnut furniture, unlacquered brass fittings, or honed travertine floors. Use lighting strategically: dim-to-warm sources enrich dark tones, while well-placed sconces highlight texture and detail.

At LVE-Design, we have integrated these palettes across our project portfolio, from Parisian apartments to Andalusian villas. To explore how colour strategy can elevate your interiors, see our interior design services or begin a tailored consultation via the contact page.

17. Cottagecore Gardens: A Romantic Retreat

What It Is

Cottagecore takes the principles of biophilic design and gives them a softer, more nostalgic twist. It’s about creating spaces that feel lived-in, natural, and effortlessly romantic. Think climbing roses spilling over stone walls, wildflower borders buzzing with life, and antique botanical prints carried into the home. Inside, this aesthetic is echoed through floral fabrics, hand-thrown pottery, and weathered wood finishes that bring the feeling of a garden indoors.

As Gardenista explains, the trend embraces a return to simple beauty and natural abundance—spaces that are intentionally unpolished, yet deeply comforting.

Why It Matters in 2025

In an age dominated by digital overstimulation, clients are seeking environments that reconnect them with nature and rhythm. Cottagecore gardens, with their layered planting and organic informality, provide exactly that. They invite biodiversity, improve wellbeing, and turn outdoor areas into restorative sanctuaries.

In Provence, kitchen gardens visible from the home root daily life in the cycles of nature. In Andalusia, shaded courtyards filled with jasmine and climbing roses evoke centuries-old traditions of indoor–outdoor living. These spaces are not only beautiful but functional—supporting sustainability, cooling microclimates, and enhancing property value through timeless charm.

How to Incorporate It

Start by softening boundaries. Replace rigid lawns with wildflower meadows, frame views with climbing plants, and introduce edible gardens that tie into the kitchen. Indoors, layer floral textiles with vintage prints, and use natural finishes—linen, clay, and oak—to maintain continuity between house and garden.

At LVE-Design, we design gardens and interiors as one story, blurring the lines between outdoor and indoor living. Examples of this integration can be found in our project portfolio, where Provençal and Andalusian estates showcase courtyards and micro-gardens designed for romance and retreat. To explore how we can craft a similar sanctuary for your home, see our interior design services or connect through the contact page.

18. Immersive Bathrooms: The Spa Sanctuary

What It Is

Bathrooms in 2025 are no longer conceived as purely functional—they’ve become spa-like sanctuaries, designed to engage all the senses. The best examples use whole-room wet zones, free-standing tubs framed by natural stone, integrated aromatherapy, and circadian lighting that shifts mood from energising morning to calming evening. Materials such as honed marble, textured plaster, and timber add tactility, while water features and soft acoustics heighten the sense of retreat.

According to Dezeen, the most forward-thinking bathroom designs now prioritise wellness, blending architecture, lighting, and technology to create immersive spaces that rival luxury spas.

Why It Matters in 2025

For high-net-worth clients, wellbeing is inseparable from luxury. A thoughtfully designed bathroom doesn’t just add comfort—it enhances daily rituals of rest and restoration. Research on built environments consistently shows that spaces designed for sensory engagement improve relaxation and reduce stress, making them essential in an era of constant digital stimulation.

In Mediterranean markets, bathrooms also extend beyond four walls. Private courtyards with open-air showers or tubs under pergolas create an intimate connection to nature. In Paris, immersive bathrooms enhance compact apartments with layered textures, indirect lighting, and hydrotherapy features that add both value and emotional richness.

How to Incorporate It

Begin with the layout: create generous wet zones with seamless stone or microcement floors for a fluid, spa-like feel. Integrate features such as rainfall showers, freestanding tubs, and built-in benches for comfort. Layer lighting—uplights, dimmable sconces, and hidden LED strips—for adaptable moods. Consider sensory details: underfloor heating, quiet ventilation, and discreet sound systems.

At LVE-Design, we have crafted immersive bathrooms that bring the spa experience home, from Andalusian villas with open-air courtyards to Parisian apartments where compact spaces are transformed through material richness. Explore examples in our project portfolio, learn more about our approach on the interior design services page, or begin a tailored discussion via our contact page.

19. Curved Furniture & Organic Shapes: Softening the Lines

What It Is

After years of sharp modernism and strict geometry, interiors in 2025 are embracing curves and organic forms. Rounded sofas, oval dining tables, arched niches, and fluid joinery bring softness and movement into spaces. These shapes take inspiration from both nature and heritage architecture—echoing Moorish arches, Mediterranean vaults, and the flowing lines of rivers and landscapes. The effect is both calming and sculptural, creating interiors that feel more human and approachable.

As Design Milk notes, curved furniture and architecture are increasingly valued for their ability to introduce warmth and comfort while maintaining a sense of modern refinement.

Why It Matters in 2025

Straight lines and stark grids can feel rigid; curves invite flow, intimacy, and ease. For high-end clients, organic shapes strike a balance between artistry and comfort. In large Mediterranean villas, sweeping staircases or arched passageways create drama while maintaining harmony with regional heritage. In Parisian apartments, curved furnishings soften classical detailing and make rooms more inviting.

There’s also a psychological dimension: rounded edges subconsciously reduce tension and promote relaxation, a subtle yet powerful influence in residential design.

How to Incorporate It

Introduce one or two statement curves, then repeat the motif subtly throughout a scheme for cohesion. A rounded sofa can anchor a living room, echoed by a circular coffee table or an arched doorway. Built-in joinery can incorporate curved corners for flow, while curved headboards or sculptural lighting bring softness to private spaces.

At LVE-Design, we integrate organic forms into projects as part of a holistic design language—examples can be found in our project portfolio, where Andalusian and Parisian properties alike feature curved elements that enhance both function and character.

20. Multifunctional Spaces: The Flexible Home

What It Is

In 2025, homes are expected to adapt as fluidly as the people who live in them. Multifunctional spaces are designed to shift roles gracefully—serving as a workspace during the day, a dining or entertaining area in the evening, and a restful retreat at night. This is achieved through modular furniture, hidden storage, sliding partitions, and lighting schemes that transform atmosphere at the touch of a button.

According to Dezeen, architects and designers are increasingly prioritising adaptable layouts, especially in urban apartments and compact luxury properties, where flexibility enhances both function and long-term value.

Why It Matters in 2025

The shift to hybrid living has made adaptability essential. Clients expect spaces that support both professional and personal lives without compromise. In Paris, a pied-à-terre might conceal a fold-out workspace within custom cabinetry. In Marbella, open-plan layouts can be subtly divided with sliding panels to create intimacy when needed.

For high-net-worth homeowners, multifunctional design also adds resilience to property value. Buyers recognise the advantage of a home that can flex with changing needs, whether for family, hospitality, or work.

How to Incorporate It

Begin with the activities the room needs to serve, then design solutions that allow seamless transition between them. Custom joinery can hide desks, bars, or even guest beds. Extendable dining tables, modular sofas, and concealed AV systems allow one room to host multiple functions elegantly. Layered lighting schemes—task, ambient, and accent—help shift mood instantly.

At LVE-Design, we have delivered multifunctional layouts across our project portfolio, from Parisian pied-à-terres to expansive Spanish villas.

21. Architectural Details & Mouldings: The Signature of Sophistication

What It Is

2025 is seeing a renewed appreciation for architectural detailing—cornices, wainscoting, wall panelling, and ornate mouldings that frame and elevate interiors. Far from being relics of the past, these details are being reintroduced with fresh restraint. In heritage properties, original plasterwork is restored to its former grandeur. In new builds, applied mouldings or subtle profiles are used to add dimension and craftsmanship to otherwise plain walls.

Historic England emphasises that mouldings and plasterwork are not only decorative but also essential to architectural identity, with a long history of defining luxury spaces.

Why It Matters in 2025

For high-net-worth clients, mouldings are more than embellishment—they signal permanence, refinement, and cultural continuity. In Paris, reinstating wall panelling in Haussmann apartments restores architectural integrity. In Mediterranean villas, carved wood doors or plaster arches reference Andalusian heritage while adding richness and tactility.

Details also add measurable value. Properties with carefully executed architectural finishes stand apart in the luxury market, reassuring buyers of quality and craftsmanship.

How to Incorporate It

Consider proportion and context. In classical apartments, restore original profiles or commission new mouldings that align with the building’s scale. In contemporary projects, use clean-lined panels or subtle frames to introduce depth without visual clutter. Materials range from hand-carved timber to gypsum or even modern composites, depending on setting and durability needs.

At LVE-Design, we treat mouldings as part of the architecture, not an afterthought. Our project portfolio demonstrates how we’ve revived historic details in France and reinterpreted them for contemporary villas in Spain.

22. Unique Handcrafted Pieces: The Soul of a Space

What It Is

In 2025, luxury is defined less by labels and more by authenticity and craftsmanship. Unique, handcrafted pieces—ceramics shaped by a local artisan, hand-knotted rugs, carved wooden headboards, or hand-blown glass lighting—bring individuality and story into a home. Unlike factory-made furnishings, these objects carry visible signs of the maker’s hand: slight irregularities, natural patina, and textures that can’t be replicated by machines.

UNESCO’s Intangible Cultural Heritage initiative underscores the importance of traditional craftsmanship in preserving cultural identity—a principle increasingly valued in contemporary interior design.

Why It Matters in 2025

For discerning clients, handcrafted objects elevate a home from polished to soulful. They provide cultural connection, sustainability, and permanence. Supporting artisans ensures traditions survive, while also offering clients access to items that are truly one-of-a-kind. From an investment perspective, handcrafted pieces retain value, often becoming heirlooms passed through generations.

In Paris, commissioning bespoke plasterwork or artisanal furniture restores a sense of historic continuity. In Andalusia, working with ceramicists and woodcarvers strengthens ties to regional heritage while creating pieces perfectly tailored to their environment.

How to Incorporate It

Start by selecting one or two standout pieces to anchor a room: a hand-carved table, a bespoke rug, or a custom chandelier. Surround them with simpler elements so they take focus. Collaborate directly with artisans for bespoke commissions, or source from specialist galleries to ensure provenance and quality.

At LVE-Design, we regularly collaborate with craftspeople across Europe, integrating unique, handcrafted works into our project portfolio. These pieces are highlighted in our interior design services, where artisan collaboration is central to our process.

23. Mixed Metallics: A Layered Glow

What It Is

The days of sticking to a single metal finish are over. In 2025, luxury interiors confidently embrace mixed metallics—combining brass, bronze, nickel, chrome, and even blackened steel. The goal isn’t contrast for its own sake, but rather layered sophistication: warm and cool tones playing against one another to add depth, dimension, and a collected-over-time feel. Finishes with patina or texture are especially prized, adding richness and authenticity.

Elle Décor reports that blending metals has become a hallmark of high-end interiors, offering a look that is less matchy and more curated, echoing the way homes evolve organically.

Why It Matters in 2025

Mixing metals allows for individuality in a world of formulaic design. Instead of a uniform look that feels manufactured, layered metallics give interiors a sense of narrative and character. Brass fittings paired with nickel lighting, or bronze hardware offset by chrome detailing, make spaces feel intentionally curated.

For clients, the aesthetic appeal is matched by investment value. Mixed metals highlight craftsmanship and material quality, reassuring buyers of the thought and permanence behind design choices. In Mediterranean villas, reflective metals amplify sunlight and enhance warmth, while in Parisian apartments they lend sophistication and timeless polish.

How to Incorporate It

Start with one dominant metal—often brass or bronze—then add one or two supporting finishes as accents. For example, a brass faucet might be paired with matte black sconces and stainless-steel appliances for balance. Keep consistency across rooms by repeating the mix subtly in different applications.

At LVE-Design, we use mixed metals to add richness without overwhelming. Our project portfolio showcases kitchens, living rooms, and bathrooms where layered finishes create glow and depth.

24. Sustainable Fabrics: Luxury in Every Fibre

What It Is

In 2025, the conversation around textiles has shifted firmly towards sustainability without compromise. Fabrics like organic cotton, hemp, and linen are prized for their beauty, breathability, and durability. At the same time, innovation has introduced recycled fibres—such as PET textiles made from plastic bottles—that meet the performance demands of high-use spaces while reducing environmental impact. Texture is key: the relaxed drape of washed linen, the crisp durability of hemp, or the soft lustre of ethically produced silk all carry both tactile and ethical value.

The Textile Exchange notes that sustainable fibres are becoming the new benchmark in the global luxury fabric market, with provenance and transparency now as important as feel and appearance.

Why It Matters in 2025

High-net-worth clients increasingly expect their homes to align with personal values as much as aesthetics. Sustainable fabrics deliver on both fronts: they are visually timeless, sensorially rich, and ethically grounded. Beyond individual taste, they respond to regulatory and cultural shifts across Europe that prioritise circularity, carbon reduction, and traceable sourcing.

For Mediterranean homes, natural fibres are also highly practical—linen breathes in warm climates, while wool and hemp add warmth and resilience in cooler months. Parisian clients often appreciate the layered storytelling of textiles that have provenance, history, and ecological integrity.

How to Incorporate It

Begin with foundational elements: linen curtains for their effortless drape, hemp upholstery for durability, or organic cotton bedding for softness. Use recycled PET fabrics in high-traffic areas like kitchens or outdoor terraces, where resilience is key. Pair these textiles with natural finishes such as oak or stone to heighten the sense of authenticity.

At LVE-Design, we specify sustainable fabrics across our project portfolio, ensuring that every piece aligns with both our design ethos and our clients’ values.

25. Mediterranean & Andalusian Influences: Our Defining Signature

What It Is

At the heart of our design philosophy lies a deep respect for Mediterranean and Andalusian traditions. These are not passing trends but enduring cultural languages: terracotta floors that cool underfoot, arched doorways that frame light, carved wooden screens that filter views, and whitewashed lime-plaster walls that breathe with the climate. Andalusian influence adds layers of intricacy—Moorish tiles, latticework, fountains, and shaded courtyards that bring rhythm, sound, and soul to the home.

The Andalusian cultural heritage portal documents how these architectural and decorative elements have shaped the region for centuries, offering a timeless vocabulary that continues to inspire contemporary luxury interiors.

Why It Matters in 2025

These influences endure because they are both beautiful and functional. Lime-plaster walls regulate temperature and humidity, terracotta absorbs and releases warmth, and shaded patios naturally cool spaces in summer. For clients, this means homes that are not only luxurious but also responsive to climate and rooted in place.

Culturally, Mediterranean and Andalusian design embodies relaxation, connection, and authenticity. In Provence, open terraces and pergolas create sociable outdoor living. In Marbella, tiled courtyards and fountains transform homes into sanctuaries. For buyers and collectors, these elements also enhance property value by linking a home to a heritage admired worldwide.

How to Incorporate It

Start with foundational gestures: terracotta or hydraulic tiles for flooring, lime plaster for walls, and carved wood or stone for architectural framing. Layer these with courtyards, pergolas, and shaded terraces that dissolve the boundary between indoor and outdoor living. Use arches—horseshoe, pointed, or rounded—to add both movement and softness.

At LVE-Design, these influences are our signature. Our project portfolio demonstrates how Mediterranean and Andalusian motifs are reinterpreted for both French and Spanish contexts.

Conclusion: Designing for Timeless Luxury in 2025 and Beyond

The interior design trends of 2025 reveal a clear pattern: a movement away from uniformity and into spaces that are layered, personal, and enduring. From the tactile honesty of natural materials to the immersive calm of neo-minimalism, from the romance of cottage gardens to the glamour of Art Deco revival, each trend speaks to a deeper desire for connection—connection to heritage, to wellbeing, to sustainability, and to the rhythms of nature.

For high-net-worth clients, luxury is no longer measured by excess. It is defined by authenticity, craftsmanship, and cultural resonance. A reclaimed oak beam, a handwoven rug, or a courtyard shaded by jasmine carries as much value as any polished stone or lacquered finish, because these elements tell a story. As Architectural Digest notes, the most enduring interiors are those that blend modern innovation with respect for tradition.

At LVE-Design, this philosophy guides every project. Whether designing a Parisian apartment where mouldings and marble fireplaces meet sculptural lighting, or a Marbella villa where Andalusian courtyards flow seamlessly into contemporary living spaces, our work is about creating homes that feel both timeless and deeply personal.
