2025 Color Trends Are Bolder Than Ever

2025 color trends are nothing short of show-stopping. Whether you're dreaming up a new kitchen or refreshing a cozy corner, this year's hues are here to transform the ordinary into extraordinary. From shades of purple to rich auburn colors and serene sage green paint, the palette is playful, polished, and ready to inspire.

1 Sleek, Chic, and a Little Bit Moody

 

This year, dark is daring—in the best way. Dark brown cabinetry is making a sophisticated comeback, adding warmth and richness to both traditional and modern homes. Pair it with copper color hardware for a refined, earth-toned look that feels as luxe as it does grounded.

Equally captivating? The navy color trend. Whether you’re going all-in with blue kitchen cabinets or creating contrast with white kitchen cabinets, navy is the new neutral that is here to stay.

2 Green With Envy: Earthy Tones Rule

 

2025 is all about green kitchen cabinets. Specifically, expect to see an uptick in sage green kitchen cabinets, forest green color tones, and even two-toned combinations that bring the outdoors in.

The love for sage green paint continues to grow thanks to its calming effect and versatility. It plays beautifully with warm wood finishes, natural stone, and neutral countertops.

3 Pretty in Purple: A Bold (Yet Soft) Surprise

 

Shades of purple are having a major moment. From deep plum to barely-there mauve in color, this palette brings a soft sophistication to bathrooms, pantries, or that charming laundry room you're finally giving the love it deserves.

Pastels are also back in a big way—but not like you remember. The pastel color palette of 2025 is grown-up, layered, and just a little moody. Think dusty lilac, soft blue-grays, and muted blushes—perfect for subtle accent wall ideas.

4 Warm It Up With Auburn + Copper

 

Say hello to the cozy hues that make your home feel like a hug. The auburn color trend is catching fire, especially in paint colors, accent colors, and wood stains that lean a little red. When paired with warm neutrals and a glowing copper color—think light fixtures, cabinet hardware, or backsplashes—it creates a warmth that’s rich, nostalgic, and oh-so-inviting.

5 Soft Colors, Big Energy

 

Not ready to commit to dark or bold? Let spring colors take the lead. Fresh whites, soft greens, and muted blues are perfect for keeping things light and airy.

Classic white kitchen cabinets are still going strong—but in 2025, they’re often paired with a colorful twist. Consider a sage green kitchen island or blue kitchen cabinets on the lower half for a trendy two-tone look
