Sophisticated personality
In a rapidly changing world, Recollect seeks authenticity and craftsmanship. This palette embraces a connection to heritage with a clash of modern glamour.
Purple, rich burgundies and wine colours are predicted to be a strong colour direction for 2025 evoking feelings of opulence and cosiness.
Design tip
Don't be afraid to elevate your space with textures and opulent fabrics including crushed velvet, chenille and damask in clashing patterns such as diagonal stripes, diamonds, checks and nostalgic florals.
Rethinking design
A second-hand influence is key in the Recollect palette, reflecting both an appreciation for classic design and a commitment to sustainability.
The economic downturn also plays a part in a desire for more affordable options, leading us to seek out unique vintage pieces that also tell a story.
Design tip
Consider combining vintage furniture to curate a space that reflects your inner self.
Remembering our heritage
Recollect draws on our fondness for the simplicity of past eras creating a feeling of connection to our heritage that provides a sense of meaning and continuity.
Whilst older generations find comfort in the past, young ones see newness and exciting opportunities to blend classic styles with modern décor recreating the moods of their grandparents and parents' homes while also expressing their own style.

Design tip
Mirrored finishes and high gloss furniture pieces are central elements to the trend adding a touch of modern glamour and intrigue.
Red hot cinnamon
The deep cinnamon of Faded Terracotta creates a warm tonal interior that is brilliantly suited to uplifting furnishings in soft oranges and vibrant corals enhanced by a playful burst of bright red on the door in Red Clown is a fun accent.
