Real Simple - 14 Decor Trends Going Out of Style for 2025—and What to Choose Instead →
Thank you Real Simple and Hannah Baker, for including me in your 2025 decor trends piece! I am excited to share four inspirations for giving your space a fresh new look in the year ahead.
Here are a few excerpts from the piece:
According to Nadia Watts of Nadia Watts Interior Design, round rugs are on the way out. Instead, try something a little more unique, she says. "Rugs of all shapes and sizes, and especially custom-designed rugs specifically for your room, are on the rise. Think oblongs, infinity loops, animal shapes, and other less traditional options."
All new everything doesn't quite have the same charm as mixing things up. Instead, Watts suggests upcycling older pieces by renewing antique furniture, using old items in new ways (for example, a thoroughly cleaned vintage ashtray as a catchall), and recovering upholstered pieces with special vintage fabrics.
"Let’s face it, we spend a lot of time in our kitchens. Your kitchen is the heart of the home, so make sure it’s not boring. Mixing materials is in for 2025, think color mixing, material mixing, and metal mixing!"

Stained Glass - “I’ve always been drawn to color—the richer the better. I am the great-great-granddaughter of Louis Comfort Tiffany of Tiffany Studios and Glass, and Tiffany glass is full of classic gem tones and deep concentrated colors and those color palettes have been an inspiration for me throughout my career. Colors may come and go, however deeply saturated gem tones seem to always look chic. I have always believed and continue to believe that you cannot go wrong with the right mix of old and new. That perfect vintage item mixed in with modern and sleek.” —Nadia Watts

'Blue is a classic color that works well with a variety of styles and finishes. Choose a light and bright neutral countertop to balance the blue. I chose a mix of materials to compliment the blue cabinetry, from chrome to antique brass, traditional to modern, the beauty of blue is that it's a classic color with traditional elements that can also span the eras of design seamlessly,' explains Nadia.

In a Denver abode’s spacious gathering space—which encompasses dining room, library, living room, and sitting area—designer Nadia Watts relies on her client’s vast art collection to create a cohesive dialogue between the adjoining interiors. “These special pieces have moved with them over the years to multiple homes and the placement of the art was planned during the drawing phase,” says the local designer. For instance, the exact dimensions of the wall behind the dining table were determined to accommodate the Bob Knox painting that hangs there. Beyond it, an inherited painting is framed by books to create “a wonderful library presence,” adds Watts. “The scale of the art, the color, and the textures of the furnishings create a compelling environment in which you want to sit and stay for a while.”

'When I think summer I think in reds, yellows, pinks, and oranges,' says interior designer Nadia Watts. 'Bright, saturated colors that remind me of the sunset over the lake; warm tones that evoke long summer days.'
For Nadia, summer color inspiration comes from the slower pace of life during these months, turning to nature and reflecting this indoors through vibrant, warm hues that feel uplifting.
'July brings a sense of freedom: school's out, work slows and family comes together. I am inspired by the slower pace of summer, it reminds me to take a moment to step back and appreciate the natural world around us. Pulling colors from nature has always been a special source for me, and what better time to do that than in the height of summer.'

'Celestial and metallic colors are in for summer,' observes interior designer Nadia Watts. 'Using metallics and striking colors is a great way to add dimensions and excitement to your space without having to redesign your entire space.'
'When you incorporate bold color, you can use it sparingly and still get a big “wow” factor. Already have a blue color story? Add a pop of metallic cobalt. Starting with a green scheme? Bring in a celestial citrine.'
'Layering color on color in different finishes creates depth and interest and elevates your color story throughout.'
