Surface Pattern Design Trends for 2025

We've been absolutely OBSESSED with researching 2025's surface pattern trends, and we need to scream about what we found into the void!

First of all, can we talk about how the Digital Textile Printing market is going to hit $7.1 BILLION by 2026?! But that's not even the best part...

We're watching this absolutely GORGEOUS color called Future Dusk take over everything - imagine the moodiest blue-purple you've ever seen, but make it mysterious. And then there's Sunset Coral which is basically if your coziest sweater became a color??

But here's what's making us lose our minds: ✨ Designers are turning AVOCADO PITS into natural dyes ✨ Someone made sequins from recycled polyester and we're not okay ✨ Sustainable patterns that look like actual magic ✨ Animal prints but make them conservation-aware ✨ Technical luminosities that literally play with light???

The whole industry is basically having this beautiful crisis where we're all trying to save the planet while making it look absolutely stunning at the same time. And honestly? We're here for it.

We put together this whole blog post about everything we discovered because we couldn't keep it to ourselves anymore. Link in bio if you want to geek out with us!

Also can we talk about how you're all using these trends? Because we're DYING to see your interpretations!

POV: You’re the graphic designer and suddenly everyone thinks you have 18 hands and zero deadlines 😤💻 From the manager, to the intern, to the chaiwala — “just one quick edit” they said 😩

🎨 Creativity? On pause. 🧠 Mental health? Also on pause. 📂 Workload? Breaking the server.

The Value of Design

Artists and designers, such as ourselves in G. Limgenco Arkitekto, share a common dilemma: understanding the worth of our work. There’s no straightforward method in arriving at this, as there are several aspects that influence and determine the value of design. Design, style, and art are such subjective disciplines, that while one person would appreciate your work, another can inversely despise it. When art and design is your source of livelihood, it is important to know how to put a price tag on your work.  In general, there are two positions that decide if your work is a masterpiece, or a master piece of shit. 

The first is the artist himself. This may seem arbitrary, as any egotistic creator can proclaim his/her work as valuable. But the truth is, the artist/designer is in the best position in knowing how good or bad his/her own work is. And as long as he/she is being honest to him/herself, the artist should be self aware of the level of his/her skills: apprentice-novice-intemediate-advanced-master. Another factor is the amount of time and care a designer puts into the work. Even a master will sometimes create quick works. At a master’s level, even quick works could be considered good work, but it would still be very distinguishable from the intricacies of passion projects. Bottomline, the creator him/herself has authority in judging his/her own output.

Ultimately, however, it is also the recipient or viewer of the work that gives value to any creative output. One cannot force another to appreciate a work of art in the same way he/she does. Beauty is indeed in the eye of the beholder. The final analysis to give thumbs or a middle finger boils down to experience. What is the experience of the viewer upon seeing, using, or walking through the work of art? What experiences in the viewer’s past resurfaced and were provoked by it? It is then that all objectivity becomes trivial. Feelings, emotion, they take control. The same piece will evoke various reactions from different individuals. 

Information is key. Sometimes, the more we know about the piece or the artist, our perception of its value may change, usually for the better. Knowing the process, the history of the artist, legitimizes its worth.

Does it matter then, if your audience likes your work or not? The truth is, sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn’t. In giving value from the recipients’ point of view, it does. It does, once the numbers come in play. The law of averages come into play. It follows the ratings approval system found similarly in restaurant reviews or movie reviews. At this point, statistics, comments, and feedback are what determine value.  

For the artist, it then becomes important to understand who your audience is. Are you designing for one individual or the general public?

When your math is bad and you have to frog two hours worth of work because you ALSO weren't paying attention AT ALL apparently and your cowl is over a foot longer than you wanted it to be... #designerproblems #ripit #yarnspaghetti https://www.instagram.com/p/CFxNMTnJY5Y/?igshid=359j9gvaed4a

I've been hiding this design for years because it's so special to me 🙈 I guess it's not very smart. 😏🤪 I'm still reluctant about having posted it, like a child who is forced to share their toy at the playground 😄 Do you have any artwork that you want to wrap around yourself and not share with anyone? 😛 #designerproblems #greedydesigners #mineallmine #myprecious #patterntalent #patterntalent_art #art #design #myth #legend #folk #folklore #sirin #sirinbird #russianfolklore #russianheritage #backtotheroots #elegantquirky #gamayun #birdofparadise #enchantment #fairytale #historyofcraft #textiledesign #yourartisticvoice #spoonflower #spoonflowerchallenge #spoonflowerdesignchallenge #quirkyelegant https://www.instagram.com/p/CFSnnGcnmKB/?igshid=oeibartpf1j9

Best Hosting For Designers

Being a graphic designer has it’s ups and downs. One of the main things that gets me down is having super slow hosting which causes my portfolio to suck when it comes to loading time. Because my portfolio is critical to how I make a living I have to make sure that I am always on the button when it comes to finding the best hosting for my website. I also make sure that no matter which country I target, I have my hosting of choice chosen for that country. I found some really good hosting comparisons on a website called ecom asean which is a website for southeast Asia, online business stuff...

If you are a designer and want to find information on things for SEA for your business, check it out.
