It’s almost October which means some of us are already looking to next year and what it’ll bring to our lives and our homes. Readers should know from previous colour trends blogs that 2025 is expected to introduce some interesting colours to our interiors, but what about sofas? And in particular, sofa trends? Well, that’s what this blog is all about. Next year seems to focus on introducing a grounding and calming effect to our living rooms through eye-catching shapes and surprising elements. Here, we’re outlining the most popular couch designs and colour choices for next year. To help with any future sofa purchasing decisions, EZ Living Furniture is linking one of our fabulous sofas to each upcoming trend to save you from having to do any research whatsoever! So, what sofas should we expect to see in our living rooms next year? Keep reading below to find out!
Modular Sofas
2025 is all about being able to customise your sofa, and no, you don’t need to brush up on your sewing skills. We’re referring to customisation in a different way here. Next year, sofas will need to be more flexible than ever, if they want to be on-trend. So, think modular sofas, sofa beds, or any couch that can be altered to fit your specific needs and living space. If you aren’t aware of what a modular sofa is, then in simple terms, they are comparable to a jigsaw puzzle. The entire unit can be split up or fitted together in various ways to create a configuration suitable for your family’s requirements. They are entirely flexible with additional pieces available (usually a drink and armless unit) to buy at a later date which can lengthen and enhance your piece. What’s our recommendation? What can we say other than that the Baxter Sofa has been a trending sofa of ours for years? It’s one of our best-sellers, so investing in this iconic couch would mean that you are getting the most bang for your buck because it is sure to remain on trend for many more years. This fabulous modular seating arrangement offers increased flexibility as it allows you to add a piece or remove a section to suit your living room. If space is at a premium in your living room, why not opt for another adaptable option i.e. a sofa bed? The choice is yours!
Velvet Sofas
Velvet sofas are making a huge comeback in 2025 and we can’t deny that we’re super excited about its return. Velvet has historically been seen as a luxurious material and it still maintains that image today! Still, there has always been a misconception that velvet is hard to maintain which is why people tend to steer away from it, especially if they have small children or pets, but this couldn’t be further from the truth. Velvet is very easy to clean, in fact, all you need is some warm soapy water and a damp cloth (after you allow any spill to dry in), and dust can simply be removed using a lint roller. So, as you can see, there’s no reason why you shouldn’t invest in a beautiful velvet couch. One that stands out from the rest is our Katie Sofa, just like the Baxter, it is one of our most popular sofas. Upholstered in gorgeous teal velvet, it is sure to make a statement in whatever room it is placed in.
Bold-Coloured Sofas
Maximalism is back but not in the way you might be accustomed to from past trends. Yes, the bigger and bolder for 2025, the better, especially when it comes to sofas, but that’s where it ends. Everywhere else should be muted to accentuate your daring couch choice. Honestly, we’re glad to see a bit of colour returning to our homes, it’s a nice change from the neutral palettes that have dominated our homes over the last few years. A new arrival to the EZ Living Furniture range is our Brosnan Orange Fabric Sofa Bed. By investing in the Brosnan, you’ll actually be introducing two trends to your home (the trend of flexibility and bold shades). The back of the Brosnan drops down to create a comfortable sleeping surface but when in its original form it acts as a sofa and a stand-out one at that!
Plush Sofas
Plush sofas are set to be huge in 2025. Yes, we’re prioritising comfort and placing it above everything else and what’s wrong with that? We’ll answer…nothing. Still, just because comfort is at the top of our list, doesn’t mean that style has to take a back seat. Just look at our Cozy Sofa above, it’s both comfortable and beautiful. And again, we’re combining two trends in one here with our pick for a plush sofa. The Cozy Sofa is a magnificent modular sofa that can be paired with an additional ottoman and armless unit, and its feather-filled cushions offer a cushy and soft seating experience. If you’re looking for a plush couch in 2025, then look no further.
Curved Sofas
Embrace those curves! 2025 is all about rounded edges and we’re here for it. Next year, we’re adopting non-standard shapes and bringing them into all aspects of our homes including our sofa design choices. Still, this trend isn’t completely unfamiliar to us. Biophilic Design, Japandi, and Wabi-Sabi are just three interior design styles that embrace natural shapes and have been around for many years now. It seems we can’t get enough of this unusual-shaped decor and from the looks of it, it will remain in our lives for years to come, so it really is a safe investment. Our top curved sofa pick is our Tokyo Sofa. Tokyo is everything you need and more for next year. It is upholstered in a bold-coloured velvet fabric for incredible luxury and has rounded, scalloped-edge features to create the ultimate statement piece.
Need we say more? We’ve got you covered with a sofa for every upcoming trend in 2025. You can browse our full range of sofas here.
