7 Trends You May Have Missed About Home Décor

Home Décor Is Evolving—And Retailers Need to Catch Up

Home décor is no longer just about filling space with beautiful objects—it has become a reflection of identity, lifestyle, and global consciousness. While many retailers focus on timeless pieces and safe designs, the most forward-thinking brands are already embracing a new wave of décor trends that are driving real sales.

The global home décor industry is expected to grow to $945.4 billion by 2030, but not all retailers will benefit equally. Why? Because many overlook emerging trends that reshape how consumers engage with and purchase décor products.

If you’re still banking on last year’s bestsellers or missing out on evolving buyer behaviors, here are 7 key home décor trends you may have missed—and why tapping into them now can set your business apart in 2025.

1. Wellness-Centered Décor Is Becoming a Priority

67% of consumers now consider mental well-being when choosing home décor, according to a 2024 lifestyle survey.

Décor is no longer just decorative—it’s therapeutic. Items like:

• Soft lighting solutions for mood enhancement
  
• Aromatherapy-based décor like diffuser vases and incense holders
  
• Nature-inspired tones and materials for relaxation
  

are all gaining traction as consumers seek comfort, tranquility, and mindfulness in their living spaces.

Global Base offers curated wellness-inspired collections that help retailers capitalize on this fast-growing emotional wellness trend.

2. Tactile Textures Are Replacing Flat Finishes

Smooth and glossy finishes are taking a backseat to textured surfaces that invite touch and add dimension.

Trending now:

• Ribbed glass and grooved ceramics
  
• Plaster-finished wall décor
  
• Bouclé cushions and hand-woven accents
  

These elements bring depth and character, making displays more visually engaging and products more desirable. Retailers partnering with Global Base get access to unique, tactile finishes across categories—from lanterns to vases to mirrors.

3. Biophilic Design Is More Than a Buzzword

The integration of natural elements into interiors is no longer limited to indoor plants. Biophilic design has expanded into:

• Organic-shaped furniture and décor
  
• Stone, bamboo, and teak wood accents
  
• Planters integrated into mirrors, shelves, or seating
  

55% of consumers say they feel more relaxed in homes styled with natural materials, according to a recent market study.

Global Base supplies a wide range of natural material-based décor and furniture, helping retailers meet this rising demand for earthy, grounding spaces.

4. Color Blocking & Statement Palettes Are Making a Comeback

Minimalism isn’t going away—but it’s evolving. Consumers are moving beyond beige and embracing strategic bursts of color.

What’s trending in 2025:

• Dual-toned vases and accessories
  
• Accent décor in bold terracotta, deep green, and muted coral
  
• Statement pieces that pop in otherwise neutral spaces
  

Color-driven décor boosts both visual merchandising impact and impulse purchases in-store. With Global Base’s color-forward décor selections, retailers can instantly refresh their product displays and drive higher foot traffic.

5. Seasonal & Festival Décor Is Becoming Year-Round

Gone are the days when décor spiked only during Christmas or New Year. Now, consumers decorate for:

• Spring refreshes
  
• Harvest and moon festivals
  
• Cultural and regional holidays
  

Based on internal retail benchmarks, retailers that offer limited-time, festival-focused collections see a 25–40% increase in seasonal sales.

Global Base supports its partners with event-driven décor planning, helping stores stay stocked with high-performing items tied to each cultural or seasonal moment.

6. Decorative Storage Is the New Must-Have

As homes get smaller and multi-functional, storage must become part of the design. This trend is reshaping categories like:

• Ottoman boxes with textured finishes
  
• Wall hooks that double as decorative pieces
  
• Tiered baskets with color-blocked designs
  

Consumers want storage that enhances their space—not hides in it. Global Base blends aesthetics and practicality, delivering dual-function pieces that meet the demands of modern living.

7. Handcrafted & Artisan-Inspired Pieces Are Gaining Value

60% of consumers say they prefer products that feel unique or handmade, even if they come at a premium.

In response, mass-produced perfection is giving way to:

• Imperfect ceramic finishes
  
• Visible weaves in natural fiber décor
  
• Uneven brushstroke-painted wall art
  

Global Base integrates handcrafted appeal into scalable production, giving retailers access to artisan-inspired décor at commercial volumes. This allows stores to offer products with story, texture, and soul—without losing consistency or margin.
