Refresh & Revive in 2025
As the New Year approaches, it’s natural to feel the pressure of resolutions. But what if this year, you shifted the focus?
New Year’s resolutions no longer have to mean completely reinventing yourself; instead, they can be the perfect opportunity to refresh and revive your home. At Jill Rae Designs, we believe your living space should evolve with you, becoming a source of inspiration and comfort. Here’s how you can start 2025 by transforming your home rather than overhauling yourself.
Redefine
Redefining your interior spaces is a powerful way to start the new year with intention and creativity. It’s an opportunity to assess how your home supports your lifestyle and make thoughtful changes that enhance both functionality and comfort. Whether it’s reimagining underutilized areas, refreshing layouts for better flow, or introducing elements that inspire calm and productivity, redefining your spaces can transform the way you live. This new year, consider creating multi-purpose zones, updating decor to reflect your current style, or incorporating natural elements to promote a sense of balance and renewal. A redefined space sets the stage for a fresh start and makes your home a true reflection of who you are and what you value.
Designer’s Tip: Ask yourself if your rooms are serving your current lifestyle and adjust accordingly!
RENOVATE
Renovating your home is a fantastic way to kick off the new year with a fresh perspective. Whether you’re updating outdated spaces, enhancing functionality, or adding personal touches, a renovation can breathe new life into your home and set the tone for the months ahead. It’s an opportunity to align your living space with your current lifestyle and aesthetic preferences, creating a home that feels both inspiring and practical. From small changes like a fresh coat of paint or new fixtures to larger projects like a kitchen overhaul or adding storage solutions, starting the year with a renovation allows you to create a space that truly reflects your goals and vision for the future.
Reinvigorate
Paint color has the power to completely transform a space, it sets the tone for a room, enhances architectural features, and reflects your personal style. Whether you’re drawn to soft neutrals, bold statements, or trending shades like Benjamin Moore’s 2025 Color of the Year, Cinnamon Slate, the right hue can bring depth, warmth, and character to your space.
2025 Color Trends
As an Interior Designer, a year-end event I always look forward to is the annual unveiling of Color of the Year from the distinct color and paint brands across the industry. 2025 is proving to be a year that embodies understated elegance, mindful luxury, and serene renewal. Shades of purple, burgundy, and brown dominate the 2025 curated collections.
One of our team’s favorite unveilings was the annual release of Benjamin Moore’s 2025 Color of the Year, along with their 2025 Color Trends palette! We love the subtle allure of undertones and the possibilities they bring to design! This curation of foundational colors flows seamlessly and radiates warmth, comfort, and effortless harmony!
