Unconventional Color Palettes
While the traditional autumnal colors of red, orange, and yellow are timeless, a more refined color palette is taking center stage this year. Neutral aesthetics with soft and inviting tones like chocolate brown, mossy green, and caramel are gaining popularity. Don't be afraid to experiment with unconventional combinations like brown and blue or navy, which can add depth to your fall decor while maintaining a cozy atmosphere.
Bold Geometric Patterns
Geometric patterns and details are making their mark in 2023 fall decorating. Incorporate triangles and bold shapes into your design through angular chandeliers, patterned Roman shades, tartan-print throws in unexpected colorways, or even upholstery with windowpane-printed fabrics. These geometric elements add a modern twist to your autumn decor while staying true to the season's spirit.
Sustainable Throws, Pillows, and Textiles
Fall is the perfect season to layer up with cozy textiles, but consider opting for sustainable options this year. Neutrals are in, so swap out seasonal-specific colors with evergreen neutrals in materials like wool, cashmere, and velvet. By choosing neutral colorways, you can extend the life of these textiles beyond the fall season and invest in quality pieces that have a year-round place in your home.
Darker Furniture
Incorporate darker woods and distressed finishes into your interior design to create an autumnal ambiance. Embrace vintage or reclaimed pieces that add character and warmth to your space, especially as the cooler months encourage a more layered and inviting home environment.
Formal Entertaining Spaces
As post-pandemic life rekindles our love for entertaining, formal spaces are making a comeback. Dust off your fine china, silver, and crystal, and use them to elevate your dining experiences. Embrace the return to Formality by curating a collection of meaningful pieces, from dining chairs and credenzas to stoneware, table runners, mats, and festive napkin rings.
Statement Glassware, Plates, and Cutlery
This fall, expect to see curated tablescapes with funky glassware, plates, and cutlery. Amber or smoke-glass stemware and clear glass mugs with colorful handles are perfect for adding a touch of whimsy to your seasonal decor. Patterned plates and serving dishes bring in a more festive flare. Gold or black cutlery can add a bold accent to more minimalist tablescapes. Not only do they enhance your table setting, but they also make for great conversation starters during fall gatherings.
