As the UK starts to shake off the winter chill and catch sight of the warmer days ahead, it's time to refresh your home for the season. Spring 2025 brings a host of exciting trends that blend bright pops of colour, eco-conscious design, and functional elegance. This season’s trends are all about personal expression and eco-friendly choices - could this be anymore on brand?! At Ilex Home, we’re all about bright, sustainable design that reflects your unique personality. Here’s how you can incorporate the latest UK home decor trends into your space with pieces from Ilex Home.
1. Bold Colours and Statement Pieces
In the UK, home decor trends in Spring 2025 are all about bold pops of colour. While neutrals still have their place, bright and vibrant hues are the go-to for injecting personality into your home. Think deep blues, vibrant pinks and warm oranges, often paired with soft neutrals or natural textures to create striking contrast.
At Ilex Home, our handmade Jesmonite designs in bold, vibrant colours are the perfect way to brighten your home as the spring sun begins to shine. Our blue and beige trinket trays are a perfect way to brighten up your space. They are a decorative way to organise jewellery, candles, or keys while adding a chic, statement-making touch and incorporating some of those bold/neutral colours contrasts to your home. Or opt for our terrazzo bookends, available in a luxurious midnight blue with beige terrazzo, to help keep your home tidy while making a statement.
2. Sustainable and Eco-Friendly Decor
Sustainability is a major focus for UK consumers in 2025, and the desire for eco-conscious home decor continues to grow. From eco-resin materials to zero waste practices, UK home decorators are looking for products that align with their values. Sustainable decor isn’t just a passing trend; it’s the future of home styling.
At Ilex Home, sustainability is at the core of our designs. Our zero waste trays are a perfect example, crafted using leftover materials to create a beautiful one-of-a-kind terrazzo effect. These trays provide the dual benefits of style and sustainability—ideal for anyone looking to add eco-friendly pieces to their home without compromising on design.
3. Functional Art: Beauty Meets Purpose
Spring 2025 sees a rise in the popularity of functional art, where home decor isn’t just beautiful—it serves a purpose, too. UK homeowners are seeking statement pieces that combine style with practicality, making their spaces feel both curated and lived-in.
Ilex Home's arched marble bookends embody this trend perfectly. Handcrafted from Jesmonite, each set features a one-of-a-kind marble effect, adding both elegance and structure to your bookshelf or workspace. Designed to be as sturdy as they are stylish, they keep your books upright and organised while making a bold statement in your home.
4. Coastal and Nature-Inspired Design
In the UK, bringing the outdoors in is still a hot trend, and coastal and nature-inspired designs are more popular than ever in Spring 2025. Elements that remind us of the sea, such as shell shapes, beachy accents, and ocean hues, are making their way into homes across the country, especially for those who want to evoke a sense of calm and relaxation.
If you love the ocean, Ilex Home's shell dishes bring that serene, beachy vibe into your home. These handmade dishes, with their sea-inspired design, are perfect for storing jewellery or small treasures. With a choice of vibrant colours, these eco-resin dishes add a touch of the coast to your home—no matter where you are in the UK.
5. Personal Expression through Maximalism
While minimalism had its heyday, maximalism is now taking centre stage in UK homes - and we're here for it. The trend is all about celebrating your unique style by incorporating bold patterns, rich textures, and clashing colours. The idea is to create a space that sparks joy and truly reflects your personality.
For those who want to celebrate individuality, Ilex Home’s products are perfect. Each of our pieces is handmade and one-of-a-kind, allowing you to choose your favourite colourways and mix and match according to your taste. Whether it's our terrazzo trays, heart-shaped pots, or incense holders, our range offers the perfect opportunity to express your style through home decor.
6. Textural Contrast: Depth Without Clutter
Texture continues to be a major trend in Spring 2025, with homeowners looking for ways to add depth and interest without overwhelming their space. Terrazzo, with its unique speckled patterns, is a perfect way to achieve this balance.
Our large black and white terrazzo tray embraces this trend beautifully. While its surface is smooth to the touch, the striking terrazzo pattern creates a sense of depth and dimension. Whether used for organising essentials, displaying candles, or as a statement piece on a coffee table, it adds bold character without adding clutter.
