Autumn

Cosy up your home with autumnal hues.

This autumn, sophisticated earthy shades partnered with light neutrals will dominate alongside tribal-inspired textured furnishings – perfect for creating a cocooning and nurturing space that home enthusiasts crave for this season.

This colour palette exudes warmth in a sophisticated and contemporary way.

Whether you choose to go all-out with these deeper shades or just add a few touches here and there, the key is to pair them with a complementary white or neutral that boasts similar undertones.
The colours of this season pair beautifully with natural materials that are trending right now – warm timbers, stone and linens.

Create the perfect cocooning and nurturing space for the season.

Dulux Natural White™ is a warm white that sits beautifully alongside the pinkish and heathery hues of Maiko and Beige Artefacts.
Paint is such an easy and affordable way to keep your interiors up-to-date, and pushing yourself out of your comfort zone colour-wise can be incredibly fun and rewarding.

Styling tips for Autumn 2018 by Michelle Halford of The Design Chaser

  • Offset rich colours with a soft, complementary neutral to create balance.

  • Introduce furniture and accessories in warm, natural materials, such as a vintage timber console or dresser, rattan chairs, woven lighting and baskets. Bold abstract art, textured wall hangings and plenty of greenery provide the perfect finishing touches.

  • Up the cosiness factor by adding in lashings of texture – think oversized knits, luxurious velvets and linens.

  • Seek out cushions and rugs that pick up on the earthy shades in the Kinship palette, and layer them for impact.

  • Bring a fun, folkloric style to the space with patterns, embroidery, fringing and tassel detailing.

  • Use accents of black in furniture and artwork to ground your scheme
