How to Choose Autumnal Furniture and Decorations
Cold weather, the warmth of home, nature gifting us with new colors: one of the most beloved seasons begins, bringing novelty, changes, and rebirth to everyday life. Some may have already done their wardrobe change, while others are searching for inspiration to refresh their home decor and create a warmer and cozier atmosphere in the living room, choosing among new colors and furnishings to welcome the new season. In this article, we want to provide you with some ideas and tips for autumnal home decoration with new colors, fabrics, materials, and revisiting some small details in your home.
Adding a touch of color and some accessories can truly make a difference and create the right atmosphere. To decorate your home with autumn decorations, we recommend dried flowers, pinecones, intertwined branches to be placed as centerpieces, and charming autumn decorations created by you. Decorating your home for autumn can also be fun with your children: a simple idea, especially near Halloween, is to place small pumpkins on the tables in the living room, on the shelves in the living area, or on the dining table, or even hang them in the bedroom, entrance, or kitchen.
If you want to refresh your living room, you can also add a new lamp, a cushion, a tablecloth, or a warm-colored centerpiece that matches the season, reminiscent of the colors of leaves and seasonal fruits. Naturally, besides decorating your home with decorations and household items, autumn can also be an opportunity to revamp the furniture, choosing colors and materials for the furniture that best suit your home. Here are our tips for choosing furnishings that will help warm up the rooms and various spaces with an autumnal spirit.
Decorating Your Home in Autumn with Warm Colors of Nature
To create a warm atmosphere and give a fresh look to your living room, lounge, entrance, and entire home, the advice is to be inspired by the colors of nature: dark red, yellow, ochre, orange, forest green, and shades of seasonal fruits (chestnut, hazelnut, pomegranate). Choose wooden armchairs with upholstery in anthracite or dark brown colors or a vintage sofa in warm earth tones with a welcoming design to immediately create a cozy autumn atmosphere with an elegant and refined touch to your living room. The shades of gray, reminiscent of the autumn sky, also blend perfectly with the decor: apart from being versatile, they add elegance to the environment. You can choose from rugs, cushions, blankets, and tablecloths to create a relaxing and restful effect and atmosphere.
You can also add a touch of dark red to infuse energy and vibrancy into the space by choosing a bookcase with light red details or a bright red or mahogany leather cushion. Remember that the details complete the perfection of the overall design. You can also consider painting the walls in this shade or adding some design objects to make your home even more captivating. Finally, plum color is perfect for suitable combinations to create an autumn atmosphere at home.
Wood, Iron, and Aluminum: Creating the Autumn Atmosphere
After choosing the colors for your furnishings, the choice of materials is also crucial in creating an autumnal atmosphere at home. Among fabrics, we recommend wool, warm cotton for blankets, rugs, and poufs. For furniture, wood is a classic material ideal for creating a warm and cozy environment that suits this season.
Wood is one of the quintessential materials for autumn. You can place a wooden console in wangé finish at the entrance and adorn it with scented candles or a floral arrangement. Autumn is also the season of rain, so equip yourself with an aluminum umbrella stand, which is more elegant and refined.
Iron, aluminum, and steel are also recommended materials for this season. A iron and aluminum coffee table is perfect for modern decor, immediately creating a warm atmosphere and adding a slightly rustic touch to your apartment, while recalling the delicate shades of light and autumn hues. Alternatively, a contemporary steel coffee table is a furnishing solution to add a touch of light with its sleek and ultra-modern design.
It's essential to create a focal point of light as well with an antique iron floor lamp with a matching lampshade to illuminate a armchair while indulging in reading your favorite book.
Now, all that's left is to enjoy the arrival of this season. A final touch of elegance is a bioethanol fireplace in front of which you can spend relaxing evenings with your family, sipping a warm cup of tea.
