Slow Life
One of the style trends within Horticulture Sector Trends 2025 is called Slow Life. This trend refers to uncertain times when there’s sometimes a need to make the world smaller and clearer. At home in our own little bubble, we find safety, trust, and connection. In this way, we reduce loneliness and avoid becoming overly jaded in both our lives and in our surroundings. We feel responsible for the climate and our health and actively work on improving in these areas. Whether we are conservative or progressive, within Slow Life, we want to feel safe in our bubble and approach the world with a sense of reason.
Slow Life in interior design
Tranquillity and natural materials play the leading roles in Slow Life-inspired interiors. Crafting products are utilised with care and complemented by warm, natural colours. Forms are simple and recognisable. This gives interiors a calming, sustainable character. Flower arrangements stand out for their pastel sobriety and quiet presence, and we see plants with soft and colourful leaves.
Trend product ingredients
The shapes used in this trend are simple, sober, and recognisable. The materials within Slow Life are mainly natural, environmentally friendly, and sustainable as much as possible. This trend makes an argument for simple designs - think stripes, checks, and natural prints of flowers, leaves, and branches.
Slow Life colour palette
This trend has two colour palettes. One brings forward a selection of soft pastel tones, such as nudes, lilac and light blue, mainly meant for flowers and plants. Green, burgundy and ochre flank these tones. There are also neutral shades of brown and light grey for calming interiors.
Slow Life core values
Calmness, simplicity, harmony, natural, soberness, essentialness, conscious, sustainable, authentic and comforting.
