Top 5 Summer Interior Design Trends in Utah Homes (2025 Edition)
Ahhh summer in Utah—longer days, warm nights, mountain sunsets, and that feeling that everything just feels a little lighter. It’s no surprise that that same feeling is making its way into our homes, too.
If you’ve been thinking about refreshing your space, summer is the perfect time to make small (or big!) interior design updates that feel fresh, calm, and full of personality—perfect for summer styling in Utah homes.
We’re sharing five of the most popular summer interior design trends we’re seeing in homes all across Utah right now—and what we love most is that you don’t have to go all-in for a trend to make an impact.
If something speaks to you, go for it. If you’re not sure? Try one or two smaller pieces first and build from there. Design should feel good—it’s not all or nothing.
Let’s dive in:
1. Warm Minimalism
Think: calm, clean, and quietly beautiful.
This trend is all about simplifying without making your home feel cold or empty. It’s that perfect balance of pared-down design and cozy, lived-in comfort.
We’re seeing lots of natural materials like wood, linen, and stone, paired with soft, earthy tones—think warm whites, sandy beiges, and gentle taupes.
Design Tip: The goal here? A space that feels like an exhale. With everything going on in life, creating rooms that aren’t filled to the brim with stuff can feel grounding and peaceful. It’s the perfect backdrop for all your summer fun—and let’s be honest, your house feels so much better with a little breathing room.
2. Nature-Inspired Palettes
Bring the outdoors in (minus the bugs).
This summer, we’re loving color palettes that feel like they were pulled straight from the Utah landscape. Sage greens, sky blues, terracotta tones, soft browns—these shades feel organic and calming while still offering plenty of personality.
Want to go bold? Take a cue from nature and throw in a few pops of color—just like wildflowers do. A vibrant pillow, bold piece of art, or colorful vase might be all you need to give your room a little extra energy.
3. Light & Breezy Layers
Summer = chill, so your home should, too.
This trend is all about feel—not just form. Airy materials, relaxed textures, and light layers help create that easy, breezy summer vibe.
We love:
-
Seagrass or jute rugs
-
Open-weave linens
-
Cane or rattan furniture
-
Raw-edge wood
-
Light stone details
Quick Win: Even if you’re not swapping out furniture, something as simple as replacing heavy curtains with linen panels or adding a natural-textured bowl or basket can make a big difference.
4. Curved Silhouettes
Soft, sculptural, and so on-trend.
We’re seeing more organic shapes and rounded edges in everything from sofas and chairs to coffee tables and lighting. It’s a shift away from sharp corners and toward a more relaxed, inviting space—perfect for summer.
Start small with a round mirror or side table, or go bold with a statement piece like a curved sofa or sculptural chair that gives your space that cool, comfortable look.
5. Statement Lighting
Because the sun can’t do all the work.
Summer brings the best natural light—but don’t underestimate the power of great lighting to set the mood.
Statement lighting isn’t just functional—it’s a design moment. Look for chandeliers, pendants, or sconces with:
-
Textural elements (like woven shades or metal details)
-
Interesting shapes (arched, asymmetrical, sculptural)
-
Eye-catching scale (oversized pendants are trending in the best way)
Pro Tip: Lighting is one of the easiest ways to instantly elevate a room and tie your entire look together.
Here’s the Bottom Line:
You don’t need to overhaul your entire home to feel on-trend. Summer design is all about feeling good—calm, light, inspired.
Pick and choose what speaks to you. Add slowly. Layer intentionally. And remember: you can always start small.
