At M/I Homes, we believe a home should be more than just four walls. Home is a reflection of your lifestyle, personality, and the moments you cherish most. Built for you.

With 2025 in full swing, interior design this year is all about embracing a perfect balance of comfort, individuality, and innovation.

From timeless elegance to bold new aesthetics, these top design trends—beautifully showcased in our model homes available to tour across the country—offer inspiration for your new space.

Modern Organic: Effortless Beauty in Every Detail

Modern Organic design brings nature indoors with soft neutrals, warm wood tones, and rich textures like linen, wool, and stone. This trend is all about serenity and simplicity, creating a peaceful, welcoming atmosphere.
