Silver Metal Interiors Are Trending In 2025

Cool chrome, aluminium and sleek stainless steel are back in favour. Read on to reveal the beauty and appeal of silver metal homewares…
Truthfully, I loved – still love – the golden tones of brass; the connotations of luxury and glamour are hard to deny. My own obsession is evident throughout my home. I never thought I would sway back to the shine of cool silver metals, until I did. Iconic designers have long embraced the lustre of chrome, aluminium and steel. Take the Multi-Lite by Louis Weisdorf for Gubi – a design classic made from chrome or the Wassily Chair By Marcel Breuer featuring tubular steel details. Both will forever be hailed as celebrated creations of our time.
As we move into 2025, it’s clear that we’re going to see plenty more of these cool metallics, as we did throughout the Twentieth Century. Both Zara and H&M are, as ever, ahead of the curve with impeccable collections of silver modernist design. From metal stools and coffee tables to stunning lighting, these cool homewares are moving into our social feeds and, indeed, our own homes.
Chromatic accents add the right amount of cool. Keep things minimal and pair with soft neutrals… and that includes the lighting. Much of this trend incorporates futuristic lamps and pendants, so look to warm white bulbs to diffuse any coldness. Alternatively, inject surprising elements of bold colours to lean into a more maximalist vibe.
