Autumn ‘22 Color Palette
It’s about this vibrant early autumn transitional color palette…
Early autumn is so exciting as it brings a late summer harvest of color energy with its call to respond to a new calendar of activity and scene changes. How to adapt this special palette to your interiors. Start with what I call a “fired earth” palette the red color family and consider multiple warm shades together to create power and excitement. Table settings can feature seasonal table linens that present colorful seasonal vegetables and fruits and a variety of accents to welcome warmth and conviviality as gatherings and events come indoors. In walls you can curate your collection by changing the art, starting a new gallery or feature wall in exciting patterns and textures.
Consider the scents of the Fall season starting by a refreshing walk as the leaves begin to fall. In essential oils you can select woodsy scents such a birch, cedarwood, sandalwood and tea tree oil for areas where anti-bacterial properties are required.. They also carry a variety of color signatures to bring healing energy into your living spaces.
The mood board above includes some paints that reflect the palette of the season and some interesting patterns and textures in wall coverings. Display a porcelain jar that holds warm seasonal spices which will enliven the experience.
On your calendar this season are visits to Fall craft & art fairs with a variety of offerings. In this way you gather items for hearth and home, inspiration for your next DIY project but you will be supporting artisans and the local economy.
I hope your interiors and exteriors support the changing rhythms of this magical season.
