Drawing from evolving lifestyles and macro-influences such as the economic state, this year's forecast emphasizes adaptability, sustainability and creative flexibility. Made for homeowners, design enthusiasts, and professionals alike, Andersen's report prompts new perspectives for designing spaces that are not only beautiful and unique but also practical and future-proof.

Key Highlights from the 2025 Trends:

Cottagecore Revival – A nostalgic celebration of history and charm, Cottagecore embraces the cozy traditional elements of colonial grille windows and cottage sash designs.
1970s Revival – Retro design gets a modern refresh, blending mid-century elements with bold colors, warm woods and brass accents, adding personality to today's and tomorrow's interiors.
Adaptive Living Spaces – Designed for longevity and function, these spaces integrate mobility-friendly features like flush door sills, durable materials and flexible layouts crafted to support homeowners through every life stage.
Colorful Windows and Doors – Bold colors take center stage, with striking trims and statement doors allowing homeowners to express their individuality while boosting curb appeal.
Small "Big" Doors – Meeting the demand for dramatic aesthetics in smaller footprints, these scaled-down big doors provide the expansive feel of oversized doors with increased accessibility and affordability.

Trends Shaped by Market and Lifestyle Shifts
The report goes beyond design aesthetics, exploring broader influences impacting homeowners today. The real estate market's "lock-in" effect, driven by escalating housing prices, has sparked a wave of renovation-focused projects, with more households investing in "forever" homes. Meanwhile, sustainability continues to influence choices, from thrifting vintage pieces to upcycling materials, for curated, distinct and eco-conscious spaces.

"The 2025 trends reflect more than just visual elements—they represent how homeowners are adapting their spaces to meet changing economic realities, environmental responsibilities and a desire for meaningful, personal connection," said Heather Teskey, vice president of marketing at Andersen Corporation. "With spring being the unofficial start to the home remodeling and renovation season, our goal is to empower people to create spaces that inspire and evolve with their needs, while leaving a positive footprint on the world around them. Our trends report is yet another example of how we are helping people bring their visions to life"
