Staying up to date with the latest art print trends is one of the easiest ways to refresh your home or office without committing to a full makeover. Wall art has the power to completely transform a space, and in 2025, we’re seeing a strong mix of minimalist design, nostalgic throwbacks, and personal expression dominating the world of interior decor.
Whether you're designing a gallery wall, upgrading your workspace, or simply adding a new piece above your bed or desk, here are the top art print trends to know this year.
1. Abstract Line Art
Minimalist line drawings continue to be a favourite in modern interiors. These prints often feature continuous, single-line designs of faces, figures, or shapes. The simplicity of line art brings elegance and calm to any room, especially when styled in black-and-white or soft neutral tones.
Best for: Bedrooms, home offices, and minimalist living spaces
Pairs well with: Natural wood frames, neutral walls, and Scandinavian decor
2. Vintage Travel Posters
Retro-style travel prints are making a major comeback. These posters add colour, charm, and personality to a room—especially when they feature nostalgic destinations or old-school airline designs.
Best for: Hallways, living rooms, and eclectic interiors
Popular destinations: London, Paris, New York, Lisbon, Rome
3. Bold Typography and Quotes
Text-based wall art is still going strong, but this year it's all about bold, clean fonts with high-impact messages. Think motivational quotes, single words, or typographic art in blocky letters. These prints are especially popular in home offices and creative studios.
Best for: Workspaces, student rooms, and modern apartments
Popular phrases: “Work Hard Stay Humble”, “Dream Big”, “Create Something”
4. Gallery Wall Mixes
The gallery wall trend isn’t going anywhere, but it’s evolving. This year, it’s all about mixing different art styles, print sizes, and frame finishes. Combining abstract art, typography, photography, and personal touches creates a lived-in, curated aesthetic.
Best for: Stairwells, behind sofas, or above beds
Pro tip: Use a consistent colour palette to tie everything together, even if the art styles vary
5. Colour Block Prints
Inspired by artists like Rothko, colour block prints are a bold trend this year. These prints use large blocks of colour to create minimalist yet impactful art. Often designed in rich tones like burgundy, forest green, or burnt orange, they add depth and warmth to a room.
Best for: Modern or mid-century inspired spaces
Pairs well with: Statement furniture, clean lines, and neutral backdrops
6. Nature-Inspired Art
With the rise in biophilic design, more people are turning to nature-inspired prints to bring the outside in. Botanical illustrations, forest photography, floral sketches, and coastal landscapes are especially popular.
Best for: Relaxing spaces like bedrooms, reading nooks, and wellness areas
Trending subjects: Ferns, eucalyptus, wildflowers, ocean waves, and mountain views
7. Retro and 70s-Inspired Art
Nostalgia is big in design this year. Bold colour palettes, wavy shapes, and retro fonts are making their way back into home decor. 70s-inspired wall art prints bring a playful, creative energy—especially when paired with vintage furniture or textured textiles.
Best for: Boho interiors, creative studios, and eclectic apartments
Colours to look for: Mustard, terracotta, teal, and faded pink
8. Personalised and Custom Art Prints
Custom prints are in high demand, offering a personal connection that mass-produced decor can’t match. These include custom maps, family names, special dates, or meaningful quotes in stylish fonts. They’re also a thoughtful gift option.
Best for: Entryways, bedrooms, nurseries, or gift-giving
Popular styles: Minimalist map coordinates, personalised couple prints, custom name illustrations
9. Museum and Exhibition Poster Prints
Art lovers are increasingly decorating their homes with reprints of vintage museum posters and gallery exhibition designs. These give a cultured, European feel to interiors and pair beautifully with minimalist or eclectic styles.
Best for: Art-led homes, modern kitchens, and design-conscious offices
Look for: Matisse, Picasso, Bauhaus, or MoMA-style designs
10. Monochrome Photography
High-contrast black-and-white photography never goes out of style. In 2025, we’re seeing a rise in architectural photography, fashion portraits, and abstract photo studies. These add depth and elegance without overwhelming a space.
Best for: Hallways, professional offices, or minimalist homes
Frame tip: Use wide white mounts in black or natural wood frames for a gallery-quality finish
