Dunelm's top interior design trends for 2025
Maximalism
Maximalism is about unleashing your creativity and bringing joy to everything around you, day in and day out. Bold pattern combinations of florals, checks and geometrics set the tone with a bright joyous colour palette that holds everything together.
Don't mistake Maximalism for having loads of stuff, it's about mixing and matching florals, layering key pieces and storytelling throughout your home, and ultimately doing things your own way. Dunelm's new collaboration with Sophie Robinson is all about that.
Minimaluxe
The interiors world has witnessed the evolution of "minimalism" into a richer, more luxurious iteration. The goal is quiet luxury - simplicity with a sense of sophistication.
Minimaluxe focuses on creating spaces that are pared down yet warm, elegant, and inviting. Gloriously tactile textures, in a palette of warm neutrals, with hints of caramel and gold, complete the look. Introducing softer forms and round edges to avoid a space feeling overly stark
The Edit
Built on the philosophy that having fewer thoughtfully designed and well-made things helps us leave a lighter imprint on the earth. Interior design is shifting to be inspired by the natural world, and all its perfect imperfections.
Take Dunelm's The Edited Life collection, it focuses on natural materials like wicker, jute and linens - as well as décor pieces and hand-thrown pottery vessels that feature forms dictated by the artisan's mark. Soft relaxed fabric textures mixed with uneven wood grains help bring this neutral, look together.
New Nouveau
Blending 19th century inspired maximalism with a contemporary colour palette this collection takes inspiration from the ornamental art form from the Nouveau era. Rich and luxurious, blending a little bit of history with a more modern aesthetic you can mix and layer into your home.
Stylised Lily motifs adorn sumptuous textiles and wallpapers mixed with marbling & stained glass vintage style lighting for a vintage inspired look, with a modern twist.
More Dunelm buys

Lidl wants to build new store on Pontllanfraith bus depot

The German retailer has submitted planning permission to knock down the former Stagecoach depot building in Penmaen Industrial Estate and replace it with a new supermarket. Proposals under consideration by Caerphilly County Borough Council show the new Lidl would also include customer parking for 112 cars, and new access from the B4254. Planning agents at Carney Sweeney argue Lidl has a 'well-established and growing customer base' and requires a new store in the Blackwood area 'to cater to local customer demand'. The proposed new store could also create around 40 full-time equivalent jobs, they added. Stagecoach closed the site in 2023 following the opening of the firm's new depot in Cwmbran. In a market appraisal for the future of the depot, company Knight Frank judged there is a 'significant supply' of employment sites within the borough. The application is currently out for consultation, and can be viewed on the Caerphilly County Borough Council website under reference 25/0494/FULL.

New £11.7billion bridge set to connect one of Europe's most beautiful islands to the mainland for the first time

Plus, how to get there now from the UK in under three hours BRIDGE THE GAP New £11.7billion bridge set to connect one of Europe's most beautiful islands to the mainland for the first time Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A HUGE new 2.2mile bridge connecting a beautiful European island to the mainland is to finally get the go-ahead. The plan to link Sicily with mainland Italy has been on the cards for years and now, the Italian government is expected to give the green light next week. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 4 Travelling from mainland Italy to Sicily is about to get much easier Credit: Alamy 4 The bridge will connect Sicily with mainland Italy Credit: Alamy The proposed plans are to build a bridge over the Strait of Messina - the body of water between Sicily and Italy's mainland. The Strait of Messina Bridge is something that has actually been talked about since the Roman times, but has never come to fruition. It came very close to becoming a reality back in 2009, but was stopped in 2013 when the company created to oversee its construction closed down. Talking to Reuters, a source said the Italian government is expected to give the go-ahead for the project next week. The source added that the meeting of the Committee for Economic Planning and Sustainable Development (CIPESS) to approve the bridge had yet to be scheduled but was expected to take place by August 7. The bridge will be costly, and the Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has set aside €13.5 billion (£11.7 billion) for the project. Once it's finished, the Strait of Messina Bridge will be the longest suspension bridge in the world. It will be 2.2 miles long and designed to withstand earthquakes and strong winds. The project isn't going to be a quick build though as it's estimated it won't be completed until 2032. Currently, to get to and from Sicily to the Calabria region, travellers have to get on a ferry, take a train, or plane. Discover Europe's Secret Isles: Top 8 Underrated Destinations 4 Sicily has beautiful beaches and lots of history Credit: Alamy A regular ferry route operates between Messina in Sicily and Reggio Calabria in Calabria, and it takes around 30 minutes to do the crossing. You can also get a train from Sicily direct to Rome and Naples that boards its own ferry. The journey takes between eight and 12 hours depending on the starting city. To reach the island by plane, visitors can fly from Milan, Rome, Venice, Bologna and Verona. From the UK, you can fly directly to the island from London and Bristol and be there in under three hours. Sicily is one of Europe's most ancient inhabited islands and is now home to around five million people. Often named one of the world's most beautiful islands (most recently by Conde Nast Traveler), the most popular cities on the island are Palermo and Catania. One writer who visited Palermo delved deep into the island's mafia past and discovered a striking cathedral, food markets and beautiful sandy beaches. Another writer went to Catania taking a look at its Hollywood history, found the best views and tasted delicious desserts. For an Italian escape, here's a Mediterranean island that Brits don't know about with spectacular beaches and it's loved by Italians. And another tiny Italian island set to be 'turned into an oasis' to escape hoards of tourists.

Dunelm bedding that feels 'really expensive' and comes in 3 colours gets 30% cut

'This is amazing bedding. Utterly soft and warm. I sleep so well under these cosy duvet covers.' Dunelm is currently hosting a mid-summer sale, which is seeing thousands of products get discounts up to 50 per cent. From curtains and rugs to garden chairs and storage spaces, shoppers will be able to get their hands on a cheeky homeware bargain across a range of products. For those wanting to switch up the aesthetic in their bedroom or bring the finishing touches to a guest room, you can never go wrong with a new set of bedding. With designs ranging from silky and simplistic to brightly coloured and delicately detailed, there is a wide selection of bedding choices included in Dunelm's sale. One stunning set that many shoppers say 'looks more expensive than it is', is the Edie Duvet Cover & Pillowcase Set. Normally retailing for between £30 and £45, shoppers can now get their hands on this luxury set for 30 per cent off, with prices starting at £21. Said to provide the 'perfect harmony of comfort and exotic design', this Edie Duvet set is crafted with soft polyester to provide a luxurious feel that will enable a rejuvenating night's sleep. Featuring an eye-catching quilted Moroccan design, this bedding will add sophistication and intrigue to your bedroom. Available in olive, natural or clay to best match the room's aesthetic, this duvet comes with matching pillowcases to create a seamlessly coordinated and stylish look. However, Dunelm states that this bedding isn't just about boasting a 'trendy design', as it also comes with a secure button closure to ensure a snug fit for an uninterrupted sleep. In terms of sizes, shoppers can currently buy a single set for £21 (RRP £30) or a double for £24.50 (RRP £35). The king sized set has also been reduced down from £40 to £28, while the super king set is now retailing for £31.50 in the sale (RRP £45). For those looking for something a bit more simplistic in its design, Dunelm has also reduced the price of the green edition of the Kersey Embroidery Duvet Cover & Pillowcase Set. With prices now starting at £15.40 instead of £22 for a single, this bedding set features a crisp white duvet with a charming leaf embroidery. Alternatively, M&S is selling their Cotton Blend Striped Bedding Set in a double for £20. Currently available in pink or neutral colourway, this bedding provides a clean and modern look with its bold pinstripes design. With StayNew technology, this set should still look and feel fresh wash after wash. Back to the Edie Duvet Set, it currently has a 4.4 star rating from Dunelm shoppers, with many reviewers praising the set for its 'luxurious' feel and 'premium' quality. One delighted shopper said: "Absolutely in love with this bedding in green! It feels so luxurious and looks way more expensive than it was. The quilting isn't too much so doesn't get too hot underneath and has a slight weight to it which feels so good when you're sleeping. Definitely recommend." With another customer commenting: "If there was a 4.5 score then this is what I would give this duvet cover and pillowcases. It feels really expensive with the quilted design and soft material. However, they did go on to add: "The downside is that the Super King Size cover is far too big for a super king size duvet. I have had to shorten the cover by sewing the top edge by about 15cm. But other than this it's lovely." Another shopper also grumbled: "This duvet cover is huge, very oversized, a proper workout when it comes to putting the duvet in. The underside fabric is not cotton which prevents it from getting a nice tidy finish." Despite this, a five-star reviewer praised: "This is amazing bedding. Utterly soft and warm. I sleep so well under these cosy duvet covers." While a fifth shopper added: "The bedding set is lovely, very soft and smooth, almost silky to the touch, easy to put the duvet inside also, very premium product for the price."
