Whether it's the extravagant opulence of the Baroque period's Rococo style or the pared-back industrialism of 60s Brutalism, architecture trends for 2025 are inextricably linked to the cultural movements of that time.

But to ignore these trends is to ignore the history unfolding in front of us, on our streets, and even in our homes, as seen in the latest interior design trends.
