Autumn 2025 Home Interiors: The Trends UK Shoppers Are Loving

 ufurnish.com, the UK’s search and discovery platform for home furniture and furnishings, has released new data highlighting the key interior design trends shaping Autumn 2025. The findings, based on millions of consumer searches across the platform, reveal a strong emphasis on sustainability, individual expression and a shift towards richer textures and tones in British homes.

The release coincides with the announcement of the Dulux Colour of the Year 2026, “Rhythm of Blues”, unveiled at the brand’s London launch event. The fluid blue palette is expected to influence interiors nationwide, pairing well with natural wood tones, warm neutrals and earthy shades.

ufurnish.com’s data shows significant growth in consumer interest across several categories:

• Velvet cushions searches up 273% year on year, reflecting demand for tactile textures.
• Dark wood furniture searches rising 183% in the past 3 months, signalling a shift back to richer finishes after years of lighter wood dominance.
• Vintage and antique furniture searches up 87% year on year, underlining the appeal of sustainable and ethical choices.
• Upholstered headboards searches up 96% year on year, highlighting the trend for cocooning bedrooms.

These findings align with broader market movements identified in Dulux’s research on trending colours and the growing popularity of biophilic design, statement lighting and spa-like bathroom retreats.

“Our data provides a clear view of how UK consumers are approaching interiors this Autumn. We’re seeing a distinct move towards comfort, sustainability and personalisation, with trends like dark wood and tactile textures experiencing sharp growth,” said Deirdre Mc Gettrick, CEO at ufurnish.com

As the home furnishing sector enters its peak season, ufurnish.com predicts these trends will continue to accelerate, with consumer interest driving opportunities for retailers and designers in the months ahead.
