As Utah continues to grow, so does our passion for homes that feel like they belong not just on the land, but to the people who live in them. At Ivory Homes, we’re always keeping an eye on what’s new, what’s lasting, and what makes a house feel like home. Whether you’re building from the ground up or dreaming up your forever space, these 2025 home design trends are shaping the way we create homes across the Wasatch Front and beyond.

1. Bringing the Outdoors In

Utah is famous for its natural beauty, from red rock deserts to alpine peaks. This year, we’re seeing more homes designed to blend seamlessly with the outdoors. Think oversized sliding doors, covered patios for year-round entertaining, and picture windows that frame sunsets like art. These aren’t just trends. They’re design decisions rooted in the Utah lifestyle.

2. Earthy, Retro-Inspired Color Palettes

Warm tones are making a comeback, and we’re here for it. Deep burgundies, burnt oranges, forest greens, and cozy browns are showing up in cabinetry, accent walls, and even front doors. These colors bring a rich, grounded feeling into your space and pair beautifully with Utah’s seasonal landscapes.

3. Curves, Arches, and Organic Shapes

In contrast to the sharp angles of modern minimalism, 2025 is all about softness. Arched entryways, curved furniture, and round mirrors create cozy, welcoming spaces. Even in new builds, this trend brings a timeless elegance that feels both current and classic.

4. Sustainable Materials that Tell a Story

Homebuyers are prioritizing sustainability like never before. That means natural wood floors, stone countertops, and reclaimed materials that add texture and soul. These materials are not only eco-friendly. They are beautiful, durable, and full of character. In addition to air quality benefits, trees can also improve water quality and help alleviate drought conditions. Our Waterwise landscaping approach ensures that we plant trees in areas that will maximize their impact on both air and water quality. One large tree can release up to 400 gallons of water into the atmosphere in a day. 17,277 trees, like those planted by Ivory Homes, can potentially release up to 4.4 million gallons of water into the atmosphere in a day.

5. Maximalism with Heart

After years of minimalism, homeowners are reclaiming their space with bold art, layered patterns, and meaningful objects. Maximalism in 2025 isn’t about clutter. It’s about personality. A home should reflect the people who live in it, quirks and all.
