A Trend Forecaster Just Told Me 2025's Most Sophisticated Color Scheme Is Inspired by This Type of Food

Where overly sweet pastel shades have been booming in popularity in recent years, for 2025, things are getting a little more grounded... Quite literally. Vegetal hues use the rustic, earthy colors of our plates to form a particularly stunning interior palette inspired by root veg, brassicas, and more. Though we might all still be in the cozy comfort food months of winter, this trend forecaster says we should be looking to the colorful shades of our gardens for home inspiration.

"Food's influence on color continues to grow. However, dainty desserts are swapped for hearty sides. Marshmallow pastels like lavender and mint give way to grounded vegetal colors. Lettuces, olives, beans, and onions act as inspiration, creating new interest in muddy yet sophisticated reds and greens," says Rebecca Goesling, trend forecaster and the director of design at Goesling Group.
