Winter’s Hottest Luxuries: Interior Design Trends Defining the Finest 2025 Homes

1.Color-Drenched Rooms and the High-Gloss Revival

One of the most striking trends this winter is the emergence of colordrenched rooms, celebrating bold hues and glossy finishes. Benjamin Moore’s 2025 Color of the Year, Cinnamon Slate 2113-40, exemplifies this movement with its sophisticated blend of heathered plum and velvety brown. This neutral yet rich shade infuses warmth into any space. High-gloss finishes are also making a dramatic comeback, creating a mirror-like effect that amplifies natural light and enhances spatial dynamics.

Artefacto’s integration of Cinnamon Slate into their Papillon lounge chair demonstrates how to seamlessly incorporate this trend into highend furnishings. High-gloss paint can envelop entire rooms or highlight architectural features such as moldings and cabinetry, elevating even the simplest spaces into glamorous havens.

A December 15th article from The Spruce examines the “double drenching” trend: “Double drenching is a design technique where two or more colors are used to fully envelop a room on the walls and

Winter offers a chance to transform interiors into cozy, inviting sanctuaries that exude elegance and innovation. As 2025 begins, luxury homeowners are embracing interior design trends that redefine comfort and sophistication. HAVEN showcases these trends, informed by insights from top designers, including contributions from Artefacto, which blend function with aesthetics to appeal to refined sensibilities.

ceiling,” says Victoria Holly, founder of Victoria Holly Interiors. “This creates a layered, immersive effect that enhances the room’s depth and makes a bold statement. The colors are carefully chosen to work together and highlight architectural features.”

Amanda Wyatt, founder of Design Insider, adds, “Double drenching works best with rich, saturated colors that can carry the intensity, like dark greens, navy blues, or deep burgundies. These colors create a cocoon-like effect, where each surface contributes to a unified and striking atmosphere.”

Alisa Popelka, the Ann Arbor-based interior designer behind Alisa Cristine Interiors, further explains in a December 8th Apartment Therapy article, “By fully leaning into a color choice, color drenching is perfect for making a statement and infusing … homes with chic personality.”

High-gloss finishes also offer practical benefits: they are durable, easy to clean, and create an illusion of depth, making even smaller rooms feel larger. Imagine a library bathed in Cinnamon Slate, with floor-toceiling high-gloss bookshelves, or a dining room where a lacquered ceiling reflects the glow of chandelier, enhancing the room’s ambiance.

2. Statement Lighting and Mirrors: Artful Illusions

Lighting and mirrors take center stage in 2025 luxury interiors, turning functional elements into sculptural focal points. Statement lighting fixtures, from cascading chandeliers to avant-garde floor lamps, merge artistry with illumination. Meanwhile, mirrors continue to redefine spatial perception, offering creative solutions for both expansive and compact settings.

Sculptural lighting exemplifies functional art. In an October 19th Design and Property article, Sue Scammell notes, “The versatility of sculptural lighting allows designers to play with form and space. Whether it’s an oversized pendant light with flowing curves or a chandelier made from geometric shapes, sculptural lighting brings depth and dimension.”

Artefacto’s expertise in mirror placement demonstrates how reflective surfaces can double the perceived size of a room. In urban settings like New York City, where space is often at a premium, mirrors strategically placed behind furniture or along walls create a sense of depth and light. When paired with bold lighting fixtures, the interplay between reflection and illumination creates a dynamic visual experience.

Fiona Sutcliffe of Sterling Studios, quoted in a June 18th Financial Times article, says, “Mirror has its own rhythm. You no longer see the walls, and it opens everything up, which is especially useful in the city where you need a bit of space.”

Statement lighting not only serves as a conversation starter but also allows homeowners to express their personal style. Mirrors enhance a room’s functionality by bouncing light, reducing the need for additional

fixtures, and contributing to energy efficiency. Consider a grand foyer with a cascading chandelier, its glow amplified by an oversized mirror—a true testament to opulence and thoughtful design.

3. Sensorial Interior Design and Low-Profile Furnishings

This winter, luxury interiors are embracing a multisensory approach, curating spaces that engage touch, sight, and atmosphere. Sensorial design creates environments that evoke emotion, while low-profile furnishings, such as Artefacto’s minimalist couches and tables, foster openness and fluidity. These pieces frame rather than dominate a room, highlighting architectural features and surrounding views.

The “bar in the bedroom” trend, championed by Artefacto’s Pietra Bar, is a prime example of sensorial design. Sleek, ready-made bars bring hotel-like indulgence into bedrooms without the expense of built-ins. Additionally, conversation-centric living rooms—spaces designed for face-to-face interaction rather than screen time—promote connection and create memorable moments, particularly during the winter months, when gatherings move indoors.

Incorporating textures and layering is essential for a dynamic sensorial experience. A November 22nd Rent.com blog mentions the growing trend of mixing and layering patterns: “I’m thrilled to be seeing warm neutrals paired with rich colors,” Christine Ortiz with Oh! Designs Interiors, Inc. explains. “Patterns are being mixed and layered to create an abundance of interest. Saturation is a word I would use for what I am seeing. It’s a curated and balanced approach to maximalism, and I’m all for it.”

Expanding on this, a November 27th Decorilla article states that true sensorial interior design goes beyond visual layering, incorporating textures, scents, sounds, and lighting to create immersive environments. This holistic approach allows interiors to evoke deeper emotional engagement, promoting relaxation and well-being. Envision a living room with low-profile seating around a central fireplace, encouraging intimate conversations against a backdrop of snow-covered landscapes. Or imagine a bedroom with a Pietra Bar, where a quiet evening drink feels like a luxurious escape.

4.Warm Metallics: A Golden Glow

Warm metallics are setting the tone for winter interiors in 2025, offering a refreshing alternative to cooler finishes like chrome and stainless steel. Shades of gold, brass, and copper introduce timeless elegance, seamlessly complementing both modern and traditional designs, while fostering a cozy, inviting atmosphere.

A November 22nd Gracious Home Interiors article states, “The finish of lighting plays a crucial role in setting the overall tone of a room,” emphasizing the trend of warm metallics, noting that finishes like copper add warmth and elegance to spaces, making them ideal for formal dining rooms and bedrooms.

Additionally, a November 14th Better Homes & Gardens article highlights the shift toward mixed metals, including warm metallics like copper and brushed nickel, which are becoming preferred over polished brass. This trend adds depth and visual interest to interiors, moving away from uniform metal finishes. “Known for its natural, vintage charm and the unique patina it develops over time, copper adds a vibrant, inviting sheen to any space. Hot on its heels is brushed nickel, celebrated for its versatility, practicality, and understated elegance,” the article notes.

Artefacto’s collections demonstrate the power of warm metallics, featuring accents that elevate everyday furnishings into statement pieces. A brass-legged dining table or a brushed gold coffee table introduces warmth and richness into a room. Metallics can also be incorporated through accessories such as vases, lamps, and hardware. The benefits of warm metallics extend beyond their aesthetic appeal. These finishes complement a range of colors and materials, from natural wood to vibrant jewel tones, making them adaptable to any interior palette. Imagine a kitchen with copper pendant lights reflecting the glow of Cinnamon Slate-painted walls or a bathroom with a brassframed mirror paired with marble surfaces. These elements create an environment of understated luxury and refinement.

5.Natural Stone Accents: The Beauty of Earth’s Elements

Natural stone remains a staple in luxury interiors, celebrated for its organic beauty and enduring quality. In 2025, homeowners are incorporating stone accents in innovative ways, from statement walls to bespoke furniture pieces. Marble, travertine, and onyx remain popular choices, each offering unique patterns and textures that bring a touch of nature indoors.

Artefacto’s use of natural stone in their designs highlights the material’s versatility. A polished marble coffee table or a veined travertine fireplace surround serves as both a functional element and a work of art.

A recent Essential Home article notes that natural stone accents add a timeless, earthy quality to interiors through their texture, luxury, and sense of permanence. Materials like marble, granite, and slate enhance the visual and tactile experience, grounding and refining spaces.

Additionally, a 2Modern article explains that incorporating natural materials like stone, reclaimed wood, and metal brings the outdoors in for a warm, earthy feel, creating harmonious and inviting retreats.

The benefits of natural stone are as practical as they are aesthetic. These materials are durable, heat-resistant, and easy to maintain, making them ideal for high-traffic areas. Picture a bathroom with a dramatic onyx sink glowing under warm lighting or a living room with a stoneclad feature wall that serves as the focal point. Such applications elevate the home’s design while ensuring longevity and timeless appeal.

Redefining Winter Interior Design

HAVEN’s interior design trends for 2025 offer luxury homeowners a chance to reimagine their spaces with creativity and sophistication. By integrating elements from leading designers like Artefacto, homeowners can craft interiors that are not only visually stunning but also deeply personal and functional.
