Rug Trends 2025 – What’s In, What’s Next
Rugs are no longer just background décor — they’ve become bold, expressive and central to any room. In 2025, rug design blends comfort, craftsmanship and personality.
Here are the top trends we're seeing in our showroom and collections — from earthy colours to sculptural shapes.
🎨 1. Earthy Colours & Mineral Tones
Warmth is back. In 2025, we’re seeing a strong move toward natural hues that bring calm and connection to your space.
Top trending colours:
-
Terracotta & clay
-
Sandstone beige & warm greige
-
Moss green & olive
-
Slate grey & charcoal
-
Soft rust & muted gold
These colours pair beautifully with wood, linen, natural stone and warm lighting — perfect for grounded, harmonious interiors.
🌀 2. Organic Shapes & Fluid Forms
Goodbye perfect rectangles. In 2025, rug silhouettes go playful and imperfect.
Think:
-
Pebble-inspired rugs
-
Free-form curves
-
Soft, asymmetrical outlines
These shapes soften modern interiors and add movement to minimal rooms. We especially love them in bedrooms, nurseries or creative corners.
🧶 3. High-Texture & Handcrafted Looks
Flat is out. This year, it's all about touchable texture.
Popular styles:
-
Loop piles and high-low relief
-
Hand-tufted sculptural surfaces
-
Woven wools with visible craftsmanship
-
Chunky knot textures in neutral tones
Textured rugs add warmth, depth and interest — especially in monochrome or tone-on-tone spaces.
🐑 4. Natural Materials & Responsible Sourcing
Sustainability continues to shape buying choices. More customers are choosing natural fibres and supporting brands that offer transparency.
In-demand materials:
-
New Zealand wool
-
Cotton and jute blends
-
Recycled PET (perfect for outdoor or washable rugs)
-
Organic or undyed fibres for soft, earthy palettes
You’ll also see more artisan-made rugs with visible knots, fringes, and natural irregularities — all part of their charm.
🖼️ 5. Statement Rugs as Art
Rugs are becoming art pieces — not just accessories.
In 2025, we expect more:
-
Bold abstract designs
-
Geometric graphics
-
Colour-blocked rugs
-
Hand-drawn lines and playful visual textures
Perfect under coffee tables, hung as wall décor, or layered to highlight focal points.
🪑 6. Soft Minimalism
On the flip side of boldness, 2025 also embraces “quiet luxury” — a look built on tone, texture and softness.
Key features:
-
Solid-colour rugs with woven texture
-
Subtle sheen or soft hand-carved patterns
-
Calming tones like bone, chalk, muted grey or mushroom
-
Understated elegance that blends beautifully in any room
This style fits well with Japandi, Nordic, or wabi-sabi aesthetics.
🏠 7. Custom Sizes & Bespoke Options
No more one-size-fits-all. Customers now want rugs tailored to their exact space and needs.
Trending requests:
-
Custom dimensions for odd-sized rooms
-
Personalised colours to match interiors
-
Custom shapes for open floorplans
