Introduction
Interior trends evolve — and so does window dressing. In 2025, certain blind styles, fabrics, and features are rising in popularity, while others are fading. Let’s explore what’s in, what’s out, and how you can future‑proof your choices.
What’s In
• Minimal & Seamless Designs
Roller blinds, invisible cassette systems, and “perfect-fit” blinds that sit flush in the window frame are getting traction. They give a clean, uncluttered look.
• Smart & Motorised Blinds
Voice control, app-based automation, and timers are no longer niche. Especially helpful for difficult-to-reach windows, skylights, or energy savings.
• Eco & Sustainable Fabrics
Recycled materials, low-VOC (volatile organic compounds), and sustainable manufacturing processes are becoming more demanded.
• Dual / Day-Night Blinds
Fabrics that combine sheer and opaque panels in alternating layers let you switch between filtered light and full privacy without switching blinds.
• Natural Textures & Soft Neutrals
Muted tones, linen textures, woven woods, and muted greens or stone hues are in vogue. They harmonize with popular interior decor trends.
What’s Out
• Heavy Vertical Fabric Blinds
Stylish but many consider traditional vertical strip blinds (especially thick fabric ones) as dated. Designers are shifting to sleeker alternatives.
(Some sources already mention that vertical fabric blinds are being seen as a trend from the 1980s–90s). The Sun
• Excessive Patterns & Bold Contrasts
Busy prints are giving way to subtle textures and gentle tonal variation — less “statement” and more “blend in with style.”
Tips to Keep Your Blinds Looking Timeless
-
Choose quality over trendiness — materials that age well
-
Go for classic styles but add small touches (colour trim, motorisation)
-
Pick neutral bases so you can update other décor later
-
Always ask for fabric / material samples before committing
