This month, from the increasing integration of artificial intelligence into the creative process to shifting aesthetic and functional preferences, we reveal the trends that will shape designs throughout the year.
Artificial Intelligence is transforming countless industries, but its adoption is still timid in the architecture sector. According to a recent American Institute of Architects (AIA) study, only 65% of architects regularly use AI in their projects. This number may be surprising, considering the technology's potential to optimize processes, personalize spaces, and boost creativity in design.
If the adoption of AI in architecture may still be slow, the reality is starting to change in interior design. AI platforms are enabling designers to visualize spaces more quickly and intuitively, automating tasks such as choosing materials, arranging furniture, or even simulating natural lighting throughout the day. Furthermore, AI effectively contributes to design personalization by analyzing customers' aesthetic preferences and suggesting solutions adapted to their lifestyles.
However, it's important to remember that AI does not replace human sensitivity. Interior design is a work of emotional and cultural interpretation, and the human touch is still essential here. This reassurance is vital in a world where technology is rapidly advancing.
The interior design market is booming and is expected to reach over $208 billion by 2033. With a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.62% between 2025 and 2033, this growth is driven by the need to optimize spaces, the dynamism of the real estate sector, and increasing urbanization.
In this context, personalization and connection with nature are two significant trends driving 2025. Earthy tones continue to be popular, while maximalism gains strength with bold compositions full of textures. Furthermore, natural materials are increasingly sought, reflecting a desire for authenticity and sustainability.
Technology, in turn, assumes an increasingly relevant role in the sector, enabling new forms of experimentation and personalization in interior design.
The 2025 edition of Meble Polska, one of Europe's most important furniture fairs, confirmed the sector's growing dynamism. Thus, the strong international presence stands out: 58% of visitors were foreign, representing an increase compared to previous editions and consolidating the fair as a strategic meeting point for brands and designers worldwide.
Among the main trends presented, the following stood out:
Promoting sustainable design with ecological materials and innovative solutions to reduce the environmental impact of the furniture industry;
Modular design, reflecting the growing demand for versatile pieces that can be adapted to different spaces and lifestyles;
Sophisticated textures and finishes, with a return to natural tones and materials such as light wood;
Balance between tradition and innovation, with pieces that combine artisanal techniques and advanced technologies to create functional and aesthetically distinctive products.
With the arrival of Spring, interior designers find an opportunity to renew spaces, taking advantage of natural light and incorporating soft tones and lightweight materials. The growing demand for environments more connected with nature encourages the use of light wood, natural fibers, and organic elements. Small updates, such as optimizing outdoor spaces and introducing fresher textures, make designs more dynamic and in tune with the season. It is the ideal time to explore trends and new inspirations and respond to customers' renewal needs.
April is packed with key events for interior designers, offering opportunities to explore trends, network, and discover innovations.

This year, the fair will highlight the integration of craftsmanship and technology, with a renewed focus on sustainability and using innovative materials. The event defines creative and technological directions, being an obligatory meeting point for those seeking innovation and inspiration.
Between April 26 and 30, High Point Market is an unmissable opportunity to explore innovations, establish strategic contacts, and understand changes in consumer behavior. This event is recognized as the most significant furniture market in the world, bringing together designers, manufacturers, and retailers to present new collections and trends.
Home In Style Hong Kong 2025, from 27 to 30 April, is an essential event for interior design professionals seeking innovation and trends in the Asian market. This event stands out for its approach focused on functional, sustainable design that is adaptable to modern needs.
March is the third month of the year, and with it, we begin a new section that aims to highlight three essential elements to inspire interior design projects. Each month, we choose a color, a material, and a detail that reflects trends, seasonality, and innovation in the sector. In March 2025, our selection is inspired by the arrival of spring, combining sophistication, lightness, and organic shapes.
Chosen as the year's color for ALMA de LUCE, Wine Red is an intense, sophisticated shade that creates welcoming and cozy environments. It is a deep red that brings a sense of refinement and identity to spaces. At ALMA de LUCE, we have explored this shade creatively, and you will find several sources of inspiration in our content to integrate this color into different projects.
Light wood is one of the most sought-after materials associated with serenity and connection with nature. Its versatility allows the creation of bright and balanced interiors, adapting to different styles, from Scandinavian minimalism to contemporary maximalism.
Curved shapes (one of the significant trends for Spring 2025) evoke fluidity and softness, making spaces more welcoming and dynamic. This detail appears in furniture, decorative pieces, and interior architecture, providing a more harmonious and engaging aesthetic.
March brought new perspectives to interior design, from the growing influence of AI to trends showcased at significant industry events. Spring adds a seasonal dimension to creativity, encouraging the exploration of colors, materials, and shapes that renew spaces.
By integrating these trends and inspirations into projects, designers can keep up with market developments and create more innovative and impactful environments. Now is the perfect time to turn ideas into reality and elevate every detail of your design.
