To us, welcoming the Autumn in seasonal style means paying tribute to the smell of spiced cinnamon, the sound of crunching leaves, the sight of warm colours in the trees, the feeling of steam rising from your coffee or hot chocolate in the crisp outdoor air... Welcoming the Autumn in style means reflecting the natural beauty, comfort and cosiness that the season brings in our homes. This is how we are dressing our interiors to befit the changing of the seasons:
1. Layering
You already know about layering t-shirts, jumpers, coats and scarves but what we're talking about is layering in your home. Start from the bottom up, treating your feet to a generous pile of layered rugs. Not only is this an Autumn/Winter indulgence that promises comfort and warmth, it's also a Scandinavian Hygge interior design trick that won't go unnoticed. The perfect way to add texture, colour and detail to a room without having to commit to fitting carpets. A low-maintenance, high-reward interior decor decision.
2. Warming hues
The falling leaves, emblematic of the Autumn months, inject us with an undeniable lust for warming hues. From worn leathers and rustic teak to burnt orange fabrics, there's no more effective way to pay tribute to the season than by surrounding yourself with warm tones. This could mean opting for a statement orange sofa or rotating your scatter cushions and throws from your staple neutrals or pastels from Spring/Summer to the warm tones of the Autumn and Winter.
3. Earthy accessories
If we ask you to think of Autumn we bet your immediate thought is of trees... A smattering of golden brown leaves fall at the foot of the trunks and hypnotise us all every year. You're not alone. Investing in some earthy teak accessories will serve as the perfect season-defining staple... But not just for Autumn. Style our Teak Bowl as a statement piece of art, a fruit bowl, to display pumpkins or to fill with Christmas baubles... It really is an all-rounder and will always add a necessary touch of nature to your interiors.
4. Moody lighting
Ambient lighting is a catalyst for truly transforming your home into a cosy Autumn haven. The Harvard Table Lamp is the perfect statement Autumn deco choice. The stand is detailed yet bold, bursting with character. This design paired with its matte black base and open weave linen shade (available in a choice of colours) makes a timeless statement. The unique nature of the design and its ability to give a room that extra bit of flair makes the Harvard Table Lamp a beautiful centrepiece.
