Andersen’s 2025 Home and Design Trends Shape Spring Renovation Season

Homeowners are preparing to embark on renovation season this spring, living spaces will be refreshed and new grounds broken with trends that blend creativity, sustainability and functionality. The 2025 Home and Design Trends report from Andersen Windows, America’s #1 trusted window and door brand among builders, contractors, architects, and homeowners.*, offers a fresh look at the styles and influences set to shape home design this year. The report offers insights from Andersen's experts and influential tastemakers who collaborate closely with the company on impactful projects.

Drawing from evolving lifestyles and macro-influences such as the economic state, this year’s forecast emphasizes adaptability, sustainability and creative flexibility. Made for homeowners, design enthusiasts, and professionals alike, Andersen’s report prompts new perspectives for designing spaces that are not only beautiful and unique but also practical and future-proof.

• Cottagecore Revival – A nostalgic celebration of history and charm, Cottagecore embraces the cozy traditional elements of colonial grille windows and cottage sash designs. 
• 1970s Revival – Retro design gets a modern refresh, blending mid-century elements with bold colors, warm woods and brass accents, adding personality to today’s and tomorrow’s interiors.
• Adaptive Living Spaces – Designed for longevity and function, these spaces integrate mobility-friendly features like flush door sills, durable materials and flexible layouts crafted to support homeowners through every life stage.
• Colorful Windows and Doors – Bold colors take center stage, with striking trims and statement doors allowing homeowners to express their individuality while boosting curb appeal. 
• Small “Big” Doors – Meeting the demand for dramatic aesthetics in smaller footprints, these scaled-down big doors provide the expansive feel of oversized doors with increased accessibility and affordability.

The report goes beyond design aesthetics, exploring broader influences impacting homeowners today. The real estate market’s “lock-in” effect, driven by escalating housing prices, has sparked a wave of renovation-focused projects, with more households investing in “forever” homes. Meanwhile, sustainability continues to influence choices, from thrifting vintage pieces to upcycling materials, for curated, distinct and eco-conscious spaces.
