AURO color trends 2025: brown tones in focus

Color preview for interiors with the expertise of designer and color expert Edward Bulmer

Brunswick, February 2025 – Furnish living spaces in your own style and make a new start with colors. The British architectural historian and color designer Edward Bulmer relies on a mix of warm and timeless colors in his color preview for 2025. Soft brown tones, such as rich nutmeg browns, form a great background and go well with the shades of pink that are currently very popular. Strong natural colors, combined with unique, natural nuances and colorful backgrounds, take center stage. The environmentally friendly COLOURS FOR LIFE wall paints and varnishes from ecological manufacturer AURO offer over 1000 shades that reflect the spirit of the times in terms of sustainability and trend colors

Trend prospects for wall design

Natural colors, inspired by the world around us, influence our living and well-being. AURO color expert Edward Bulmer gives an outlook on the hottest colors and trends for interior design this year. “2025 will be about conscious and mindful living. More than ever, our homes will become a place of comfort and inspiration. Colors play a decisive role in this: they should radiate warmth and harmony – whether in soft or strong tones. Brown tones in particular are gaining in importance, as they convey a sense of calm and can be wonderfully combined with the popular shades of pink. Colorful neutrals also set new, exciting accents and create an inviting atmosphere.

Coloured ceilings – the fifth wall

“From bold tones to subtle shades or just a splash of color, ceilings are becoming an important part of the design.”

Paint residue – Apply stripes

“When using leftover paint, even for smaller rooms or ceilings, applying stripes is much easier and cheaper than wallpapering. AURO’s natural colors harmonize very well with each other, so you can let off steam creatively and have as much confidence as you want with the colors.”
