Cosy Autumn Colour Palettes
With burnt orange leaves and overcast skies, rainy days and a crisp chill in the air, autumn has well and truly arrived! And what better way to embrace the season than with cosy autumn colour palettes of enriching earth tones, luxurious jewel-tones or wholesome neutrals.
Read on and get inspired by red, gold, brown and green autumn paint colours to transform your home and stay warm this chilly season!
Rich earth tones
A natural palette inspired by the great outdoors will instantly create a harmonious, grounded vibe, with shades that effortlessly complement each other.
We paired our lush green Familiar Ground with a dustier Chalk Green for a layered effect, that’s softened by the crisp white doors. Green also makes a great contrast to rust and terracotta furnishings, or as a standout colour on furniture and cabinetry. Pair Fired Clay with leafy pendant lights and exposed woods to complete the outdoorsy look.
Take a look at our moodboard of organic shades for inspiration on how natural shades of earthy red, deep brown, gentle beige and verdant green go together.
A dusky terracotta like Fired Clay or a soothing beige like Salted Caramel will instantly imbue rooms with warmth for a relaxing atmosphere. Alternatively, bring the outside in by pairing a rich silt brown like River's Edge with lush green Familiar Ground for a natural match made in heaven.
Slow-paced neutrals
Neutrals are a simple way to evoke cosiness and are perfect for creating a classic, uncluttered space. A green-toned neutral like Silver Sage is great for an elegant twist on the earth-toned look, that will complement rough wood textures and dried flowers.
A yellow-toned neutral like Antique White or Clotted Cream will create a soft, relaxing atmosphere, adding a touch of warmth for an inviting lounge or spa-like bathroom. Complete this look with gold or brass accents, warm woods and subtle pops of colour.
Jewel-toned reds

For cocooning rooms with a touch of glamour, luxurious jewel-tones are the perfect way to create a captivating yet cosy space and embrace moodier weather.
Our dark cherry Valentina is the perfect shade to complement vintage artwork and antique furniture. Try an elegantly rich red like Fire Brick on sideboards and cabinetry, to create a statement focal point. Make jewel tones shine with metallic accents, leafy green plants and ornate frames.
