2025 is Here, and So Are the Latest Exterior Design Trends!

As we step into 2025, one thing is certain: retro-inspired colors are making a major comeback, shaping design choices across industries—from fashion to home exteriors, including metal roofing. Sherwin-Williams’ Color Capsule of the Year perfectly embodies this nostalgic trend while maintaining a fresh, modern appeal. The curated palette features a blend of warm, earthy tones and vibrant accents, including:

  • Clove (SW 9605): A deep, cool brown
  • White Snow (SW 9541): A crisp, clean white
  • Malabar (SW 9110): A warm, earthy beige
  • Grounded (SW 6089): A mid-tone brown
  • Bosc Pear (SW 6390): A golden yellow
  • Chartreuse (SW 0073): A vibrant yellow-green
  • Mauve Finery (SW 6282): A subtle mauve
  • Rain Cloud (SW 9639): A muted teal
  • Sunbleached (SW 9585): A soft, creamy white

While Indiana Metal proudly uses Sherwin-Williams coil coatings, these colors aren’t available in coil form just yet. However, our existing stock colors can beautifully complement these trends. Earthy tones like Clay, Rustic Red, and Koko Brown are perfect for tying into this year’s palette, enhancing curb appeal and creating a timeless look.

Rising Design Trends for 2025

Standing Seam Metal Roofs

Standing seam metal roofs are continuing to gain traction this year. Known for their sleek, clean lines and hidden fasteners, they deliver a contemporary aesthetic while offering unmatched durability. Available in a wide range of colors, they pair seamlessly with both modern and traditional home designs.

Mixed Materials for Exteriors

Blending materials like metal, stone, and wood is another trend to watch. Metal accents, whether used for roofing or siding, add texture and depth to exterior designs, creating dynamic visual interest. Combining metal with natural materials like stone veneer or warm wood elements results in a timeless, cohesive aesthetic that homeowners love.

Metal Siding: Durable and Stylish

Metal siding continues to dominate as a low-maintenance, high-impact choice for exteriors. With a wide range of panel styles, finishes, and colors, metal siding offers flexibility for various architectural styles. Indiana Metal’s Wood Grain line, which mimics the beauty of natural wood without the upkeep, is a standout option for homeowners looking to elevate their siding game.
