If you give it enough time, you can always count on an interior design detail to resurge in popularity. This year, we've seen the rise of chainmail and the revival of chandeliers. But what I didn’t have on my home decor bingo card was the comeback of Venetian blinds, which seem to be quietly (yet undeniably) soaring to the top of the window treatment lust-list.
If you're struggling to remember what these types of blinds look like, allow me to jog your memory. The window coverings feature horizontal slats that tilt effortlessly to balance light and privacy. They rocketed to stardom in the 20th century, becoming the standout background characters in classic crime films like The Godfather and American Gigolo, as well as George Michael’s 1984 hit, Careless Whisper. And in 2025, these iconic graphic slits are making a much-welcomed return.
