To do it, Pinterest tracks search behavior, comparing year-over-year spikes to flag emerging trends. This year\u2019s report spans 21 trends across categories like fashion, beauty, travel, and home. For interiors, they selected four trends worth watching: FunHaus, Afrohemian Decor, Neo Deco, and Extra Celestial\u2014each pulling from wildly different references but unified by a shared rejection of neutral, beige minimalism.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"1\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">Here, we\u2019re diving into each of the trends Pinterest selected.<\/p>\n<p>FunHaus<img draggable=\"true\" alt=\"interior doorway leading into a modern room\" title=\"interior doorway leading into a modern room\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"634\" height=\"829\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" style=\"color:transparent;width:100%;height:auto;\"   src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/f3405edd-9b75-4d2f-b5d4-4e7f359bdbc3.png\" class=\"css-0 e1g79fud0\"\/><\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"5\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">The circus is coming to your living room, but leave the clown nose at the door. FunHaus pulls from big-top nostalgia\u2014striped ceilings, sculptural shapes, vintage posters\u2014without veering into birthday party territory. Pinterest recorded a 130% increase in searches for \u201ccircus interior,\u201d 70% for \u201cvintage circus aesthetic,\u201d and 50% for \u201ccircus nursery.\u201d This trend features objects like vintage suzani textiles, tassels that don\u2019t feel twee, and architectural details that wink at the tent. Essentially, maximalism that has a sense of humor without becoming  juvenile.<\/p>\n<p>Afrohemian Decor<img draggable=\"true\" alt=\"a living room with a terracotta chevron patterned floor and a wicker chair at the back and a large fauteuil in front with an ottoman in green velvet with fringe and large planters and patterned walls and glass doors at back\" title=\"South Africa - ELLE DECOR\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1823\" height=\"2500\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" style=\"color:transparent;width:100%;height:auto;\"   src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/g19-2979-66903a02903dc.jpg\" class=\"css-0 e1g79fud0\"\/><\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"8\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">This trend fuses boho\u2019s anything-goes spirit with African textiles and craft traditions, pulling from places like Dakar, Lagos, and Addis Ababa. Pinterest clocked a 220% surge in searches for \u201cafrobohemian home decor,\u201d plus a 130% jump for adire fabric and 210% for Berber motifs. Images show Nigerian adire cloth draped over furniture or hung as wall art, the kind of indigo-dyed textiles that used to be reserved for Yoruba royalty. Layer in handwoven baskets from Ethiopia, Berber-patterned rugs, and rattan chairs to complete the style.<\/p>\n<p>Neo Deco<img draggable=\"true\" alt=\"Elegant dining area with a wooden table, chairs, and decorative elements.\" title=\"Elegant dining area with a wooden table, chairs, and decorative elements.\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"2160\" height=\"2700\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" style=\"color:transparent;width:100%;height:auto;\"   src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/65c0b73a-3520-4ebc-871b-5ac2aad5f296.jpg\" class=\"css-0 e1g79fud0\"\/><\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"11\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">Art deco dragged itself out of the 1920s and into 2026, chrome intact. Neo Deco resurrects the era\u2019s geometric obsession\u2014chevrons, sunburst mirrors, fan-shaped arches\u2014but swaps the period stuffiness for something a bit sleeker and more lived-in. Pinterest saw searches climb 80% for \u201cred marble bathroom,\u201d 100% for \u201cantique bar cart,\u201d and 40% for \u201cpendant lamp.\u201d The trick is layering statement pieces that earn their keep: brass details, antique bar carts, and hand-painted accents nod to the original era. The point is for it is to be glamorous, but also a little weird.<\/p>\n<p>Related StoryExtra Celestial <img draggable=\"true\" alt=\"sig bergamin\" title=\"sig bergamin\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"6192\" height=\"8256\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" style=\"color:transparent;width:100%;height:auto;\"   src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/sig-bergamin-murilo-lomas-porto-alegre-ph-fran-parente-dsf5373-lr-68f93472751e4.jpg\" class=\"css-0 e1g79fud0\"\/><\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"15\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">Extra Celestial swaps cutesy \u201cspace-core\u201d for a sharper style. The trend leans into holographic finishes, opalescent surfaces, and sleek, almost aerodynamic silhouettes that feel futuristic. Pinterest reports an 80% spike in searches for \u201calien core aesthetic,\u201d 115% for \u201copalescent,\u201d and 140% for \u201calien inspired make-up.\u201d In the home, that translates to cool metallic palettes, iridescent glass, and sculptural pieces that catch and bend light.<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/afe6c5ab-daa4-4248-860f-c8bebef90726_1735829133.jpg\" alt=\"Headshot of Julia Cancilla\" title=\"Headshot of Julia Cancilla\" width=\"100%\" height=\"100%\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"css-o0wq4v ev8dhu53\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Julia Cancilla is the engagement editor at ELLE Decor, where she oversees the brand&#8217;s social media and writes about the intersection of design, pop culture, and emerging trends.
