Curves done quietly. 2025 interiors continue to see a move towards softer, more organic forms — think curved lines, rounded edges, and sculptural silhouettes. A signature of refined, modern interiors, it’s easy to see why. These softened shapes bring an immediate sense of ease to a space. They’re visually calming, emotionally engaging, and quietly luxurious — qualities many of us are seeking in our interiors, both inside and out.
The trend is rooted in biophilic design — bringing nature’s forms indoors — but also takes cues from mid-century modern and Art Deco curves, blending elegance with comfort, it focuses on soft, organic shapes, textures, and natural materials like wood and stone to bring a sense of flow and harmony to a space.
At Rebecca Scott, our focus has always been on timeless pieces with a twist— and curves are very much part of that.
They appear throughout our indoor, outdoor furniture and lighting collections, from cocooning outdoor sofas to gently arched lights, we’ve gathered a selection of our favourite designs that celebrate this softer approach to living — each one chosen for its shape, feel and lasting appeal.
In our outdoor dining range, curved tables and subtly contoured chairs bring a sense of ease and elegance to al fresco settings. Whether set beneath a pergola or placed centre stage on a sun-drenched terrace, they echo the natural landscape — turning outdoor dining into an experience that feels both effortless and elevated.
Our range of outdoor sofas and lounge chairs do more than provide comfort — they shape the space. These forms invite relaxation, encouraging a slower pace of living. Whether styled on a terrace or nestled into a garden setting, they mirror the organic flow of nature, turning outdoor areas into spaces that feel as considered and comfortable as any interior.

Stepping indoors, occasional chairs and tables continue the story. Subtle curves in the frame and seat create a feeling of embrace — elegant, supportive, and designed to complement without dominating. Alongside them, our upholstered sofas and lounge chairs offer gently rounded silhouettes that invite you to settle in. These pieces are as comfortable as they are considered — prioritising form and function in equal measure.
Our decorative lighting plays into this rhythm too. From softly curved wall sconces to fluid, hand-finished ceiling lights, each piece is designed to diffuse light with warmth and intention. These aren’t just functional fittings — they create mood and movement, casting a gentle glow that complements architectural details rather than competing with them.
The Curved Design Edit...
We don’t see curves as a trend, but as a design approach that endures — quietly shaping spaces with softness and intent.
Whether you’re designing for a private home or a hospitality space, curved forms offer a way to bring both movement and harmony into a room. Take a look through our collections for more inspiration.
