Everything Old is New Again (at Home) Everything Old is New Again (at Home)

According to Thumbtack’s Top Interior Design Home Projects Trends for 2025, we’ll see homeowners prioritize refreshing their spaces, with 57% of pros predicting a focus on remodeling vs. building new.

Simple yet impactful updates are leading this trend, with 60% of home and interior design professionals predicting that room redesigns—including painting, updating furniture, and accessorizing with rugs and plants—will be one of the most popular home design projects of 2025.

Close behind, 58% of pros anticipate a rise in room remodels as homeowners refresh layouts and repurpose spaces to suit evolving needs, whether that’s working from home or making space for a growing family.

This trend will bleed over into decor as well, with 43% of pros anticipating that vintage touches like antiques and heirlooms will be trending throughout 2025. It’s also highly likely that the ongoing fear of tariffs causing the price of new goods to go up will keep this trend going strong for the next several years.

Whether it’s adding vintage mirrors, framing old maps or prints or bringing in nostalgic accessories like record players or typewriters, vintage is making a comeback.
