As we start to reflect on the design trends of 2025, it only seems fitting to think about the wonderful design trends of 2024. There always seems to be the reoccurring trend that persists throughout the years and wallpaper did not disappoint last year. Wallpaper is a great source of colour, texture, and style; offering designers and homeowners multiple options to work with.
At Total Wallcovering, we love to find and share wallpaper trends. In 2025, wallpaper is anything but ordinary, with prints that take risks, textures to remind you of nature, and also unexpected applications. Wallpaper is about creativity and about expressing yourself. Whether you are working on a total room makeover or just a quick weekend DIY project, the trends below will have you inspired to recharge your walls and beyond.
Prints We Love: Geometry & Florals
Patterns dominated 2025, and in 2025 they're going to be even stronger. Homeowners are recognizing wallpaper as a way to express their personal style, and prints must be a large part of that. Our two favorite directions this year are geometric patterns and classic florals.
Geometric prints whether chevron, herringbone, hexagons, or even bold stripes add a modern twist and structure to any space. Geometric prints work well in minimalist and eclectic styles. Whether for an accent wall or an entire room, geometric wallpaper can add movement and visual interest that helps draw the eye and energizes the space.
Conversely, floral prints and patterns are a timeless choice, and they are also being interpreted in new ways - from giant blooms with an artistic look to sweet delicate vintage botanicals, florals no longer equal girly and old-fashioned. One of the best things about this trend is the flexibility - you can choose to be bold and dramatic, or soft and romantic - it's just a matter of what colors and scale you choose.
Even better, we love how design in 2025 started to break gender norms and stereotypes. Floral patterns in a bachelor pad? Yes, please. Bold black and white stripes in a nursery? Absolutely. In 2025, we say to throw caution to the wind and design with what speaks to you.
Textures That Add Depth: Grasscloth & Faux Stone
Prints add pop and pattern but textured wallpaper offers an extra layer of richness to a space. Textures are nice options for bringing warmth, levels of sophistication and tactile love to your walls.
Grasscloth wallpaper is an exciting option to decorate your workspace, bedroom or living room, that will feel warm and earthy, as it is made from a variety of natural fibers - such as hemp, seagrass, and jute. The woven look of grasscloth wallpaper is subtly luxurious, and helps to bring the calmness and serenity that uncle nature offers, into your home.
Conversely, faux stone and brick wallpapers are growing in popularity and it makes sense. It provides the natural beauty of exposed material: white stone, rustic brick, or weathered concrete without the expense or complexity of real construction. It is an effective way to add architectural character to a space with none of the mess. Faux stone wallpaper can convey anything from urban loft to farmhouse cozy, in a simple but striking way.
Thinking Outside the Wall: Creative Uses for Wallpaper
One of the biggest surprises from 2025 - and a trend we're predicting will grow even more in 2025 - is the creativity behind wallpaper in unusual spaces. Thanks to Pinterest and Houzz, homeowners and designers are also finding unbelievable inspiration to put wallpaper in places they never imagined.
Here are just a few unique ways we’ve seen wallpaper being used:
- Ceilings: The ceiling, sometimes referred to as the "fifth wall," is a fantastic area to add visual drama. A starry print in a child's room or a floral design above the bed can completely change the room.
- Staircase risers: Wallpaper that has been cut to size can add a splash of colour or design to every step; this is particularly common in homes with eclectic and bohemian design themes.
- Bookshelves and cabinet backs: Wallpapering the back of glass-front cabinets or open shelves gives them depth and personality. It's a small detail that has a significant impact.
These custom applications allow you to bring style and creativity into every corner of your home. If you have a favorite pattern or texture, don’t limit yourself to just the walls!
