Together, these insights reveal that interiors for Autumn/Winter 2025 should be about creating spaces that feel inviting, layered, and memorable, with colour playing a starring role.

Key Colours for Autumn & Winter 2025

The dominant tones this season are earthy and nostalgic: terracotta, oxblood, forest green, camel browns, and sandy neutrals. These shades provide a grounding base that can be built upon with more expressive accents.

Complementing these are bold jewel tones and statement colours, such as plum, mustard, Retro Blue, and Celestial Yellow. These bring personality and vibrancy to otherwise muted schemes. Future Dusk, a moody, almost cosmic purple-blue identified by Coloro, offers drama and sophistication, perfect for feature walls or statement furniture.

Talking of feature walls, these appear to be taking centre stage at the moment, as we are noticing a lot more desire to see one statement wall, with complementary furniture and soft elements.

Fluting has been a popular design feature for some time, and it does not appear to be going anywhere anytime soon, we have seen a lot of these sorts of designs, and continue to see them going at this time.

We have also seen a requirement for greens and pinks, with terrazzo styles, concrete looks and veined looks holding strong.

Solid Surface Pairings for Office Interiors

Office interiors are moving away from stark minimalism and towards warmer, layered schemes that enhance productivity and comfort. Solid Surface materials provide the perfect foundation to bring these palettes to life.

• Glacier White Corian,  White Quartz HIMACS, or Durasein Triostone brighten collaborative areas and allow deeper tones like oxblood or forest green to shine without overwhelming the space.

• Chic Concrete HIMACS and Slate Grey Hanex create an industrial-modern look, perfect for worktops, breakout tables, or shelving, especially when paired with Cherry Lacquer or Retro Blue accents.

• Soft Statuario Meganite adds quiet luxury for meeting rooms or boardrooms, pairing beautifully with plum or mustard accessories for a timeless yet modern feel.

Solid Surface Pairings for Retail Interiors

Retail design is increasingly about storytelling, creating spaces where customers feel immersed and inspired. Colour trends for Autumn/Winter 2025 play directly into this, and Solid Surface is a material that allows for creative, durable, and hygienic applications in high-traffic environments.

• HIMACS Aurora Magnolia is ideal for service counters or display plinths, introducing a calming feel that pairs effortlessly with mustard details.

• Tristone Cream Sands brings sandy warmth that complements terracotta, camel brown, and oxblood, helping to create spaces that feel rich yet approachable.

• Pebble Ice Staron® offers a tactile, organic base that grounds dramatic shades like Future Dusk or Celestial Yellow, helping bold features feel anchored and intentional.
