Zesty Citrus & Soft Sunshine
One of the biggest trends for summer 2025 is citrus. Think lemon, tangerine, and golden yellow. These aren’t harsh neons, but softer, sun-washed tones that bring warmth and energy without dominating a space. They work beautifully in kitchens and hallways, especially when paired with light wood or white walls.
Try it: A yellow or ochre rug can add instant brightness to your space – ideal beneath a dining table or to lift a neutral room.

Powder Blue & Coastal Calm
Blue is always a summer favourite, but this year we’re seeing softer, more powdery shades trending. Taking inspiration from the sky and sea, these tones feel cool and clean, the perfect escape from a busy world.
Try it: Use a pale blue rug in a bedroom or lounge to create a peaceful, coastal feel. Pair it with pale greys, whites, and natural textures like linen and wood.

Fresh Botanical Greens
Green continues to rise, with a focus on natural, plant-inspired shades like sage, fern, and soft olive. These colours help to bring the outdoors in, tapping into the growing love of biophilic design.
Try it: Use a green rug in your living room or garden room to add freshness and depth. It’s a versatile base for creams, leathers, or even terracotta accessories.

Earthy Clays & Natural Warmth
Earthy tones continue to grow in popularity, and this summer they lean even further into nature. Think soft terracotta, warm rust, and sunbaked clay – colours that bring depth and calm without feeling heavy. These grounded hues work particularly well with timber, neutral walls, and natural light, adding a quiet richness to the space.
Try it: A gently textured runner in warm clay tones can enhance a hallway or sit neatly beneath a sideboard, echoing the natural materials around it. Style with simple décor to keep the look understated and inviting.

Neutrals - But Not as You Know Them
Neutrals will always remain a firm foundation, but this summer they come with more depth. Think creamy stone, warm grey, or subtle greige - tones that feel relaxed yet refined.
Try it: Adding a textured, neutral rug to your space is a simple way to introduce detail without adding colour. Perfect for layering or zoning open-plan areas.
