Future Dusk – an otherworldly shade of purply blue – has been crowned the top color for 2025 by trend agency WGSN and Coloro. This bewitching color includes numerous shades which have already been spotted in trendsetting interiors. Mauve and plum were seen throughout the fifth edition (2024) of the Kips Bay Dallas Decorator Show House where almost all the 23 designer rooms included vintage Oriental rugs. WGSN believes Future Dusk aligns with “themes of moving from darkness to light”, but we believe it’s a color that encourages us to transition into a comfortable zone of dusky darkness where we can feel safe in our cozy retreats. Whether you want to audition Future Dusk in one room or your whole home, read on to discover one of the delightful aesthetics that allies with the color, and how vintage and antique Oriental and Persian rugs anchor the look.
