Hottest home trends for 2025

COLOUR DRENCHING
Colour drenching involves using your colour across walls and ceilings to maximise the impact and create the illusion of a bigger space - doors, radiators, and even furniture won't escape the paint job if you want the full effect. Brown, terracotta, beige - once the preserve of the 70s, earthy colours have been slowly gaining popularity. Similarly, bold greens and blues are also making a return, with the intention of colour drenching rooms.
STATEMENT WALLPAPER
Wallpaper divides designers, with some loving it and others preferring painted walls. 2025 will see a resurgence of wallpaper, and the bolder the better. For small spaces, such as downstairs loos or studies, choose a bold print and ignore any concerns about making the space look smaller. For larger spaces, consider a stunning mural theme.
BROKEN LIVING PLAN
Open plan living has been popular for over a decade now, but while it hasn't quite had its day, many are returning to smaller, functional spaces - with a twist. 'Broken plan' is when a bigger space is cut into various parts using screens, archways, crittal-style windows and doors or textured glass.
Another commented: 'The essential oil of this is UNREAL by the way if anyone has an oil diffuser."
"It's a really lovely option - I have the room spray," penned a third.

Meanwhile a fourth said: "Obsessed with tomato smells!"
Someone else added: 'I agree!!! I have it in the house. It's so lovely."

Being naked in the comfort of your own home or sunbathing topless in the garden might not seem like a huge problem. But it could get you in trouble. Under the law, it's technically For it to become illegal, it needs to be proven that the stripping off was done deliberately. This means it is legal for you to be naked in your own back garden, as long as you're not doing so to upset your neighbours. So if you're thinking of According to the Crown Prosecution Service "a balance needs to be struck between the naturist's right to freedom of expression and the right of the wider public to be protected from harassment, alarm and distress". While she may have faced some judgement, Mel wants to encourage other women to starkers sunbathing and realise how beneficial it can be.

One in 10 Brits would rather doomscroll than have sex with their partner, new study finds
ONE in 10 Brits admit choosing doomscrolling over sex with their partner, according to research. A poll of 2,000 adults explored the impact of consuming 'endless' negative stories on the web – finding the UK collectively spends 67.4 million hours a day doomscrolling. Advertisement 1 The average person loses two days a month to scrolling Credit: Getty That's 96 minutes every day in total – the equivalent of two days during the course of an average month. And this not only affects productivity (46 per cent) and creativity (28 per cent) but for 10 per cent has even resulted in turning down sex. Their fascination with such content has also led to 28 per cent feeling tired or drained, and 22 per cent anxious or overwhelmed.

'We're encouraging people to take back control of their screen time and use their phones with more purpose." The research also revealed 44 per cent of those polled regularly lose track of time when scrolling, and 22 per cent have no idea how much they scroll at all. Advertisement Most read in Fabulous Exclusive But for the 52 per cent who wish they had more hours in the day, cutting back on scrolling could help them make time for the things they say matter most. This ranges from seeing family (40 per cent) and spending time in nature (36 per cent), to being creative (25 per cent) or learning a new language (19 per cent). Why is Facebook making sounds when scrolling? Four in 10 (41 per cent) scrollers admit to doing so on the toilet, and 49 per cent do it while spending time with friends and family. Some have also indulged in the online negative swirls while at a wedding (12 per cent), at a school event (13 per cent), and even funerals (six per cent) Advertisement With the top 'toxic topics' include negative world events (32 per cent) and reality TV or celebrity drama (32 per cent).
