🛋️ With marketplace insight and her classroom’s collective inspo-gathering, Nancy Kraig, an assistant professor of interior design at Cuyahoga Community College, touches on what’s moving into our interior environments in 2025.

🖼️ Grandmillennial is homey yet updated, familiar yet nuanced — much in the way fashion pieces return to the scene with a twist. “We’re seeing more textured ceilings and adding more moldings, going from plain walls to chair rails and additional trim,” Kraig says. Picture rails, panels, crown molding, beadboard and other trim treatments are a cost-effective way to add interest to a boring wall and bring a living space into the Grandmillennial era, Kraig points out.

🪵 When luxury vinyl plank (LVP) was introduced, some of its shortfalls to good, old hardwood included bubbling and peaking at joints, plus a plastic look that lacked features of true wood. Those days are long gone, as many find the high-traffic-ready, water-resistant surface to be much more practical and just as appealing as the real deal. Now, we’re playing with LVP dimensions and patterns to create statement floors. “We’re seeing a lot of herringbone layouts and wider formats,” Kraig says.

🎨 A move toward saturating every surface in a room with the same color delivers bold yet calming appeal — the ultimate in monochromatic design. Try it out by incorporating the same color, or a combination of closely related tones, across every aspect of a space: walls, the ceiling, doors, baseboards, trim and so on.
