Rococo Revival

How to Integrate Rococo Revival into Modern Interior Design

What Is Rococo Revival and Why Is It Trending?

Rococo Revival is a modern reinterpretation of 18th-century French Rococo, known for its curved lines, ornate details, soft colors, and romantic atmosphere. According to Pinterest’s 2025 trend report, Rococo Revival is making a comeback as part of the broader “eclectic maximalism” trend embraced by both Gen Z and baby boomers. As minimalism fades, expressive and emotional interiors are taking center stage.

How to Integrate Rococo Revival into a Contemporary Space

Mix styles

Combine clean-lined modern furniture like straight sofas or minimalist tables with Rococo-inspired statement pieces such as carved chairs, decorative mirrors, or gilded consoles.

Textures and materials

Blend classic Rococo materials like velvet, gold leaf, and carved wood with modern matte finishes, glass, soft fabrics, and neutral palettes.

Color harmony

Use soft backdrops such as cream, sand, or warm gray to make Rococo elements pop. Incorporate signature Rococo colors like gold, burgundy, pale pink, mint green, soft lilac, and ivory for an authentic touch. Accents like embroidered cushions or a decorative console in pastel or gold add elegance without overwhelming the space.

Keep it balanced

Limit Rococo accents to one or two pieces per room. A gilded mirror or an ornate armchair can be a perfect statement in an otherwise simple setting.
