If there's one notable shift in the design world thus far in 2025, it's the return of lived-in, layered spaces that put to bed the ultra-minimalist, all-white rooms we once couldn't get enough of. Our homes are returning to warm, natural materials, and honey oak is the latest design trend to affirm this.
"Oak has been popular for many years now, but we’ve seen a bleached, white-washed version for most of that time," observes designer Kristina Khersonsky of STUDIO KEETA. "By bringing in this honey tone, it still feels light but not too washed out and bland. The resurgence of honey is here!"
