Bedroom Design Trends for Comfort and Style in 2025

Are your bedroom or guest room spaces in need of a style refresh? Sometimes even a few thoughtful design elements are just what you need to give those personal and cozy rooms a whole new perspective. In that case, our Urban Natural team has you covered with some of our favorite bedroom design trends that also happen to be right in line with this year’s top furniture and home decor trends too. Take a look, and get inspired for your next bedroom style update:

Get Grounded with Earth Tones

This year is reveling in more comforting, earth tone color palettes that invite a sense of calm into the home. Seek out rich, natural hues for your bedding and upholstery like this year’s “color of the year,” mocha mousse. For example, the Highland Stripe Coverlet in sustainable Belgian linen, and its matching set of 2 pillows are an ideal way to add a more nature-inspired feel to your bedroom. You can also bring some grounded warmth into your nighttime spaces when you choose solid wood bed frames, nightstands, and dressers like the Join wide dresser from GRAYN. Finally, handwoven rugs that incorporate soothing earth tone colors can make a really big difference without too much effort.

Personalize your Space with Handcrafted Touches

Experts agree that 2025 is turning out to be a year where more personal touches in our home decor are more encouraged than ever. That theme seems to resonate profoundly for our bedroom and guest room spaces in particular, since they’re often places we want to feel the most relaxed and comfortable being ourselves in. Look for furniture, decor elements, and unique pieces that speak to you, offer a sense of connection, and aren’t necessarily mass-produced. The Join bedroom collection, with its minimalist elegance that celebrates the uniting elements of design, brings a handcrafted, sustainable, and USA made artistry to your room. You can personalize it with light oak or shadow oak finishes, and even opt for a linen or boucle headboard to add a softer feel to your evening wind-down routine too. 

Layer Lighting to add Warmth and Ambiance

When you mix up your lighting to include more contrasting and versatile sources, you easily open up the possibilities for different moods throughout the day and night. Try some overhead lighting with dimmable or indirect capabilities like the Volo Flush Mount with its vintage-inspired brass, solid wood, and leather features. Then incorporate some table or floor lamps made from natural materials like the Bronte lamp in travertine stone, or a bestselling Asano paper lamp that can be placed on a nightstand, shelf, or corner of the room to create a calming and ethereal ambiance. 

Switch Things Up with Patterned Accents

Traditional patterns like plaids and florals can invigorate a specific piece of furniture, or corner of your bedroom space. Don’t be afraid to layer patterns too, like a few of these linen block print floral pillows from Loloi arranged on your bed, chair, or window seat. Designers are also loving a patterned upholstery choice for accent chairs, like the bold floral option on a Mally Accent Chair. If you’re considering a new rug for the bedroom, why not try something that makes a rich and vibrant impression like the Cicek Amber hand-knotted rug, which still offers a soothing effect with its earth tone palette, and natural wool and cotton fibers.

Consider Traditional Bed Designs with a Modern Twist

A traditional bed like the four poster, canopy, or spindle design may not seem like an ideal fit for a more contemporary style bedroom, but it absolutely can be! Whether your interior design aesthetic leans more traditional and nostalgic or mid-century modern, these tried and true beds can be beautiful focal points for your entire room. Discover Maple Corner Woodwork’s Four-Poster Bed, which incorporates a slimmer profile to the classic design, giving a more updated appeal that’s still eye-catching in large or smaller spaces. Our customers also love the Spindle Bed in oak or repurposed FSC certified teak from Ethnicraft. The perfectly aligned spokes in its headboard evoke a traditional spinning wheel, and the rounded edges imbue it with a softer feel overall. 

Incorporate a Multi-Purpose Desk with Bedroom Appeal

While we know your bedroom should always prioritize rest and relaxation over workday obligations, including a bedroom-style desk can be a nice way to encourage introspective personal time through journaling or letter-writing. If your guest room tends to double as a work-from-home office, you might also appreciate this design trend for its subtle multi-functionality. For a simple, solid wood desk that complements nearly any interior design and doesn’t feel corporate, try the Shaker Writing Desk from Maple Corner Woodworks. If your space is smaller, you might also consider a PI Wall-mounted Desk from Ethnicraft; not only can it double as a bookshelf or nightstand, but the curved design is inspired by organic shapes found in nature, and feels especially appropriate for invoking a peaceful bedroom sensibility.

Create a Clutter-Free Space for Rest

In the spirit of solid and consistent nights of blissful sleep, let your bedroom style be free of unnecessary clutter whenever possible. A great way to do this is by including paired-down and innovative designs that also promote a sense of restoration like floating nightstands, and hanging pendant lights. Ethnicraft’s Nordic Bedside Hanging Table is both beautiful and purposeful for its easy storage drawer that keeps everyday items from crowding your nightstand. You can also light your space without taking up valuable surface area by incorporating elegant hanging pendants like Cisco Home’s hand blown glass Beaker Lamp.

Let Your Headboard Make a Statement

Don’t overlook the possibilities of your bed’s headboard to set the tone in your room. This year, our designers are seeing everything from large upholstered options with bold patterns and rich textures, to softly curving headboard shapes that gently draw the eye. The emphasis seems to focus on a more personalized look that feels curated and specific to your taste and style. Explore the tall and softly-winged headboard of a Brinley Bed from American Leather, which can be upholstered in your choice of fabric or leather. You might also feel drawn to a shapely, tufted option in a wide variety of fabrics like Cisco Home’s O’Hara Bed, or a more structured and classic look like Copeland’s Sloane Floating Bed.

When designing or reimagining the bedroom of your dreams, it’s a good idea to keep an open mind, but let each choice you make feel personal to you and your needs for the space. When your bedroom is thoughtfully curated to inspire restful relaxation and comforting retreat, you’re much more likely to begin and end each day with a sense of ease and rejuvenation.
