If you love a home that radiates warmth, energy, and a touch of nostalgia, then you’re going to adore 2025’s hottest interior design trend: Cherry Coded.

A bold, playful aesthetic inspired by the rich reds of ripe cherries, this trend brings a fresh yet timeless feel to your home. Think cherry reds, shiraz, and soft blush tones woven into furniture, décor, and styling. Whether you’re ready to go all out or just dip your toes in, we’ve got plenty of ideas to help you embrace this trend with Mocka’s signature mix of style, affordability, and functionality.

What is Cherry Coded?

Cherry Coded is all about infusing your home with juicy red hues, vintage charm, and a fun-loving energy. It draws inspiration from retro diner aesthetics, mid-century modern design, and the playful yet sophisticated shades of cherry tones. This trend is vibrant yet versatile, allowing you to style it in bold statements or subtle touches, depending on your personal taste.

The beauty of Cherry Coded is its adaptability. It pairs beautifully with neutral bases, such as natural woods, soft whites, and warm earthy tones, making it a seamless addition to your existing décor.

How to Bring Cherry Coded into Your Home

Whether you’re feeling bold or prefer a more understated approach, here are some effortless ways to weave the Cherry Coded trend into your home with Mocka’s stylish and affordable furniture and décor.

1. Statement Furniture Pieces

If you’re ready to make a bold statement, invest in a striking red furniture piece. A cherry-toned armchair, a deep red sofa, or a rich burgundy ottoman can become a stunning centrepiece in your living room. Pair it with neutral walls and wooden accents to let the colour pop without overwhelming the space.

Mocka’s range of accent chairs and neutral furniture offers the perfect canvas for this trend. Look for pieces in plush velvet or smooth linen textures to enhance the rich, luxe feel of cherry tones.

2. Soft Furnishings for a Gentle Touch

Not ready for a full commitment? Soft furnishings are an easy way to experiment with the Cherry Coded trend. Try adding:

• Cherry red or blush-toned cushions to your sofa

• A deep red throw blanket draped over an armchair

• A stylish site table subtle pops of crimson or berry hues

3. Mix & Match with Natural Elements

One of the best things about the Cherry Coded trend is how beautifully it works with natural materials. Pair rich reds with:

• Light or dark woods – Think oak coffee tables or walnut sideboards to create a warm, balanced look.

• Rattan and wicker – A cherry red cushion on a rattan chair creates a playful contrast.

• Linen and cotton textiles – Opt for soft, breathable fabrics to keep the look fresh and inviting.

4. Play with Patterns and Prints

For a fun and eclectic take, introduce cherry-coded patterns into your home. Think checkered prints, floral motifs, or retro diner-inspired designs.

A red and white checkered tablecloth, a vintage cherry print wall art, or a patterned wallpaper with crimson details can instantly bring a playful yet stylish edge to your space. 

5. Cherry-Inspired Dining Spaces

Give your dining area a touch of Cherry Coded charm with red accents that feel both stylish and inviting. Consider:

• A set of deep red dining chairs paired with a wooden table

• Clay coloued Buffet or sideboard

• Cherry-hued crockery and glassware for a fun pop of colour

6. Subtle Accents for a Minimal Approach

For those who prefer a more understated look, small cherry-coded accents can still make a big impact. Try:

• A deep red vase with fresh flowers on your coffee table

• Blush-toned candles or decorative bowls

• A cherry-red clock or artwork to add a focal point

These little touches keep the trend subtle yet stylish, allowing you to refresh your space without overwhelming it.

Styling Tips for a Balanced Look

While Cherry Coded is all about embracing bold hues, balance is key to keeping your space cohesive and elegant. Here are some styling tips to ensure your home feels chic and curated:

• Pair with neutrals – Whites, greys, and natural wood tones will help balance out the boldness of cherry hues.

• Layer textures – Mix velvet, linen, and wood to add depth and interest to your space.

• Use colour strategically – If you have a bold cherry furniture piece, keep surrounding décor minimal to let it shine.

• Incorporate metallics – Gold, brass, and even black hardware complement cherry tones beautifully.
