At RIMS Lotus Salon Professional, we understand how interior aesthetics impact client perception and satisfaction. That’s why we’ve designed a full range of furniture and hardware that blends trending styles with functional durability.
In this article, we explore the top trending colors and designs in modern salon interiors for 2025, and how RIMS Lotus can help you bring them to life.
1. Earthy Neutrals: Calm, Classy & Client-Friendly
Trend Overview
There’s been a noticeable shift towards warm, earth-toned palettes—think taupe, terracotta, muted beige, and soft olive. These shades evoke a sense of calm and sophistication, making clients feel more relaxed during their treatments.
Application in Modern Salon Interiors
- Walls & Flooring: Neutral hues paired with wood grain tiles or matte concrete textures.
- Chairs & Stations: Upholstered in tan or clay tones.
- Reception Areas: Earthy tones create a grounded, spa-like welcome.
How RIMS Lotus Can Help
Our salon chairs and shampoo stations are available in neutral leatherette and fabric tones. Combine them with our natural wood-finish trolleys and mirrors to achieve a seamless earthy interior that speaks luxury and calm.
2. Soft Pastels: Feminine, Fresh & Instagram-Ready
Trend Overview
Salons targeting a youthful or female-dominant clientele are going for pastel palettes—dusty rose, lavender, mint green, or baby blue. These colors create a dreamy, gentle ambiance that instantly appeals to social-media-savvy customers.
Application in Salon Interiors

4. Luxe Metallic Accents: Glamour Without Gaudiness
Trend Overview
A touch of metallic—gold, rose gold, brushed brass, or chrome—adds instant opulence. When used subtly, it can transform basic salon interiors into luxury spaces without being over-the-top.
Application in Salon Interiors
- Framing Mirrors or Shelving: Use gold/brass accents.

5. Biophilic Design: Nature-Inspired, Wellness-Focused
Trend Overview
Biophilic design—bringing the outdoors inside—is gaining traction in salon environments. Clients are increasingly drawn to spaces that feel natural, airy, and organic. Think greenery, wood, stone, and sunlight.
