Design trends: curtain colour ideas for 2025

Curtain colours play an important role in defining the style and mood of a room. If you’re thinking it’s time for a refresh of your space, how about introducing new curtains with a pop of colour? Or perhaps a look inspired by Pantone’s 2025 Colour of the Year, Mocha Mousse? From moody colours to neutral shades or earthy tones, let’s explore the latest trends in curtain colour ideas. 

Dark, moody colours are on trend

Moody colour palettes are set to be a defining trend in 2025. Move away from traditional neutrals and think luxurious navy blues, dark plums, or even deep greens. These colours can transform any room into a bold space filled with character.

Go for the Amsterdam’s luxurious, velvet-look fabric in bold colour tones like Gold, Ocre, Wine, Navy or Peacock. Or the Libretto premium linen-look sheer in Navy or Teal, which softly diffuses natural light while offering daytime privacy.

Want to take it a step further? Hop on the colour drenching train by matching your walls, ceiling, doors and trim to your curtains for an immersive vibe. Colour drenching adds dramatic flair to your décor and can even make smaller rooms look larger.

Neutral shades for timeless appeal

Neutral shades have a timeless appeal. Think white, beige, light grey, greige, and near-neutrals like blush pink and taupe. These versatile hues not only complement any décor but also allow you to express your unique style without overwhelming the senses. 

     

Imagine walking into a room adorned with soft beige curtains that effortlessly warm up the space, or light grey curtains that add a touch of elegance. White or cream curtains create a bright and airy feel that can transform any room into a serene retreat. Embrace the power of simplicity with neutral shades. 

Earthy tones for a natural look

Earthy tones like forest and sage green, terracotta, brown and rust create a natural and organic feel in home décor. They also evoke a hint of 70s nostalgia. So, if vintage or Bohemian styles appeal to you, think about introducing earthy curtain colours to your living room or bedroom. Think the Amsterdam in Sage, Bali Sheer in Heather, or Mythos Sheer in Possum.

Pantone’s 2025 Colour of the Year is Mocha Mousse – and honestly, we’re feeling it! It’s a rich, earthy tone that’s all about warmth and elegance. Shades like Odin Mink, Bali Smoke or Galaxy Earth are the perfect fit for any room.
