Fall Decor: Revamping Your Home with Autumn Colors, Patterns and Textures
Balance is key when choosing autumn decor. Combining the subtle and striking shades of the season allows you to design dynamic color schemes. Meanwhile, furniture with rustic wood finishes and classic velvet upholstery promotes both casual comfort and timeless elegance. Use the following tips to design a fall layout that’s equal parts chic and cozy.
Autumn Color Palettes: Subtle and Striking Seasonal Shades
Get your fall home decorating underway by adding seasonal hues to your existing decor. Incorporating these bold and balanced shades into your design is a great way to revitalize the space and reflect the look of the changing scenery outside.
Red
Ruby-red leaves and scarlet autumn berries represent one of the more vibrant hues of the season. Bring in a burgundy sofa or cardinal chair to boost a muted color scheme, or try a striking red or cherry wood end table. If you need just a splash of this warm hue, spread a wine-colored tablecloth over your dining table.
Other options in red:
Brown
Deep brown decorative accents bring a charming and balanced vibe to your autumn ensemble. Sepia, beige and chocolate brown throw pillows create a soothing, earthy aesthetic, while rustic wooden benches and terracotta planters add a touch of warmth to the space.
Other styles in brown:
Orange
Cheerful orange hues are ideal for fall decorating. Bring color and texture to your home using fall-themed gourd and pinecone sculptures on your countertops and fireplace mantle. Create some contrast with your seating ensemble by rolling out a pumpkin-colored rug or showcase fall harvest flowers with decorative vases filled with mums and sunflowers.
More options in orange:
Yellow
Channel the cheerful hues of sunshine and fields of wheat with yellow decor. A festive wreath made with golden leaves, fall grasses and vines is a welcome sight on an overcast October day. When you’re looking for a quick and easy way to brighten up your decor, use a cushy mustard-yellow ottoman by the sofa or hang a gorgeous gold mirror in the entryway.
Other options in yellow:
Green
Shades of green bring a calm and refreshing quality to your autumn layout. Roll out a sage or forest green rug to evoke memories of grassy fields, or fill an oversized jade planter with ferns or dried grass in complementary tones.
