"We're moving into color-drenched rooms and away from white-on-white everything,"
"Color blocking and color drenching are especially strong for the winter months, bringing depth and coziness to interiors,"
"[We're] moving away from off-white and quiet walls to the use of saturated colors such as aubergine, greens, and yellows, leaning into color drenching on walls."
Color drenching coats entire spaces in a single hue to create bold, monochromatic, and often maximalist interiors. Saturated, moody palettes such as aubergine, deep greens, and warm yellows replaced off-white and quiet walls, adding depth, coziness, and seasonal warmth. Color blocking complemented these approaches, driving winter-forward schemes. Minimalism and stark white-on-white schemes declined, and farmhouse aesthetics fell out of favor as livable luxury and maximalist details gained prominence. These changes influenced mood boards and floor plans across projects in 2025 and project momentum that is likely to carry into 2026.
