I'm an interior designer. Here are 10 trends I won't be wasting money on in 2025.

• As an interior designer, there are home designs and trends I have no plans to partake in this year.
• Sherpa chairs, beige couches, and polyester-filled throw pillows aren't really built to last.
• I also wouldn't add open shelving to a kitchen or crown molding to any modern space.

I've been an interior designer for years, and I've learned that not every trendy design or "must-have" item is worth the money.
