As we step into 2025, lighting design is embracing a harmonious blend of nature, personalization and creative confidence. The latest trends reflect our growing desire to create spaces that feel both connected to the natural world while remaining effortlessly current. Handcrafted artisan fixtures and an emphasis on your personal style are how this year's décor designs are transforming how we illuminate our spaces.

Creative Confidence

The rise of handcrafted décor brings a unique look to a room. Artisanal, handmade pieces tell a story. One of travels, hobbies, interests and passions. Vintage furniture, family heirlooms and items collected on travels bring an undeniably unique touch to a space. Bold color choices like color drenching, where you take a single color across all aspects of a space, from baseboards and walls, to ceilings and doors, are brightening up homes this year.

Biophilic Design

We are seeing Biophilic design continue to make an impact as homeowners incorporate more natural inspired design into their home. This design trend incorporates elements, materials, and patterns inspired by nature in an effort to improve human wellbeing. We’ll see materials like wicker, jute and stone making a big statement in 2025, where handcrafted and artisan pieces will be a sought-after design feature. From the rich patterns of rattan to handwoven raffia, these materials tell a story of craftsmanship and earthbound beauty. Decor like botanical prints and artwork, textiles, plants, branches or colorful arrangements are authentic ways to bring nature home.

Minimalist Aesthetics

Clean lines and uncluttered spaces are paired with a sense of warmth and coziness when there’s a functional and aesthetic balance. The ease of entertaining and sharing space is enhanced by the clean look of a minimalist space. The graphic lines and pure geometry of the Eisley and Gala collections are a perfect pairing to minimalist looks.

Wellness-focused and restorative spaces are pulling the curtain back on uncluttered moments that evoke a sense of calm, comfort and the opportunity to recharge. The Chennai mirror has a soft, indirect, backlit glow that makes the perfect fixture for a serene space.

Personalized Lighting Experiences

Your home lighting should be as unique as your style. Customizable lighting solutions, with features like rotating arms and pivoting shades, as seen in the Velestino and Carston collections, give you the ability to change the shape and style of a fixture to fit your mood.

Light can also be customized to enhance your task. From ambient lighting for everyday activities to focused lighting that illuminates a reading nook or homework space, placing lighting where it will be most helpful to your day is an ideal way to enhance your space.
