Interiors Inspo & Facades Inspiration
Can you EVEN get over the sleeping pooch above, so effortlessly elevating the entire color story in that Charleston home’s renovated kitchen?

Followers are utterly charmed by the Spanish bungalow below and NEED to know where it is located. Any guesses?
If you guessed Coral Gables, you are on the money!

No matter how beautiful the kitchen (the one below is Athena Calderone’s 2020 renovation that broke the internet)…
folks have opinions about how many steps is too many steps from sink to range or other kitchen design “rules.”
Inspiring Timeless Interior Design
Which is so interesting considering that my attention always goes to the mood, the colors, and the form over function.

Do you automatically think about work triangles and practical matters?

It seems anything Tudor-esque or clad in white brick is particularly engaging at the moment.

However, when it comes to white kitchens, most FB followers find them too 5 minutes ago.

Isn’t this curious? I see beautiful green kitchens everyday, and I think: goodness, I would tire of that color in less than a week. And that’s exactly what makes design diversity a hoot.

Every once in awhile I toy with the idea of offering design services locally. I allow myself to brainstorm about brand fonts, shopping for accessories, and website portfolios for about 90 seconds before I realize I would stress about creating designs to suit the taste of others rather than my own.

It’s why I have so much admiration for the work of interior designers who are committed to delivering a unique look that suits their client.

What Timeless Decor is Resonating in 2025?
Can we talk about the work of Jill Egan? Good heavens, it’s heavenly.
This kitchen she designed above has gone viral on my page for good reason. When the budget allows for beauty from Chateau Domingue? How can the look ever fall from favor?

With what feels like daily chaos in weather patterns, global relations, and shifts in the culture, there is something to be said for the ever important task of leveraging the role of the artist, designer, architect, and maker.
With all of the luxurious and fantasy level interiors inspo and architectural inspiration I post, it’s less about emulating a particular look…

quite often it is escapism.
But not all escapes are healthy escapes, and I personally must be very intentional about consuming content online. Doomscrolling as a reaction to sadness or boredom?

By now, I think we can all agree that there are better responses.

Trending Interiors & Internet Behavior
It’s easy to get caught up in the comparison game or self-pity when right at our fingertips we can see dreamy lifestyles of the more rich or more famous.

But so much of what is projected is sheer illusion.

You may have noticed an absence of Ai renderings in this mix.

That’s because my followers don’t want anything to do with those designs anymore!
Isn’t that fascinating? Well, maybe it’s just me with my sociologist hat on. But I think noticing the engagement trends provides data about how appetites can quickly shift.

I hope my reporting on the diminishing traffic for Ai images encourages artists whose livelihoods have felt threatened by the technologies.

2025 Popular Interior Designers
Have you noticed any sort of patterns in the designs here that seem to resonate for followers?
What I am seeing is a renewed appetite for Old World but lightened up and underbaked.

There’s a renewed reverence for natural materials, patina, and high quality craftsmanship.

If 2024 was all about moodier colors and snug libraries, I wonder if 2025 may beckon more airy optimism and understatement.

Not that those richly complex darker colors are going anywhere. People are still losing their minds about olive green kitchens and navy blue media rooms.
But you can see a growing appreciation of earthy colors and materials happening.

Thank goodness, that’s happening!
