Why Everything’s Coming Full Circle: The Rise of Round Furniture in 2025

There’s something happening in design right now—furniture is softening, edges are melting, and spaces are embracing the beauty of the curve. At Indigenous by LaRue, we’ve always believed that nature doesn’t do sharp corners, and this season, the world of interiors is finally catching up. Circular and rounded shapes are having a major moment, and let me tell you… it’s about time.

From round dining tables that bring people together in sacred symmetry to arched benches and organically-shaped coffee tables, this trend is more than just aesthetic—it’s emotional. Round furniture makes a space feel held. There’s a sense of flow, of softness, of ease. And after the last few years, who isn’t craving a little more peace in their home?

Why Round Is the New Bold

Rounded forms are a quiet rebellion against the clinical lines of past decades. They speak to comfort, to movement and uniqueness. In fact, designers and trendsetters are calling it the “soft modern” look—a perfect blend of contemporary and cozy.

And while minimalism is still in play, curves make it feel human again. Think: sculptural stools, pebble-shaped side tables, and circular mirrors that reflect light (and love) back into your space.

Rooted in Culture, Not Just Trend

For us, this isn’t just about what’s “in.” Rounded shapes connect deeply to Indigenous philosophies, too—many of our ancestors built with circles, gathering in them, cooking in them, dancing in them. Circles represent cycles, unity, and eternity. When you bring a round piece into your home, you’re not just following a trend—you’re honoring a history that’s been here all along.

Our Take

At Indigenous by LaRue, we’re leaning into this revival with intention. Our handcrafted pieces highlight natural curves and soft edges, Seeking to highlight the beauty of nature in a new modern way with inlaid resin or keeping it organic and open either choice is up to you and your esthetic.

Closing the Loop

So if you’re redesigning your home or just want to add one fresh, intentional piece—go round. Go soft. Go bold. This is the year to embrace curves, in your furniture and in your life.
