20-05-2025
As the seasons shift and the crispness of autumn settles in, design trends are evolving to embrace warmth, texture and timeless comfort. From layered textiles to ambient lighting and energy-smart home designs, now is the perfect time to embrace the coziness of autumn in your home.Â
Texture plays a crucial role in achieving that snug autumn vibe. Layer your spaces with heavy fabrics and bed linens to create a sense of warmth. Think of incorporating heavy knit throws, plush velvet, sisals and wools, along with the tactile appeal of boucle. These materials not only add comfort but also introduce a tactile richness to your decor.Â
Lighting can transform your space, especially during the shorter days of autumn. Opt for statement lamps and feature lighting that evoke a softer glow, creating an inviting atmosphere.Â
Whether it’s a traditional focal point or a modern design, it serves as the heart of your home. A warm fire not only provides physical warmth but also creates a comforting ambience. Â
Consider Arden’s energy efficiencies to maintain comfort as temperatures drop, incorporating solutions like double glazing, insulation, effective heating and cooling systems, or future-proofing your home with solar batteries to reduce energy bills.Â
Pantone’s Colour of the Year, Mocha Mousses, made significant impact at Milan Design Week as a predictor of this year’s trends. Influencing everything from lighting, tableware and natural timbers. It’s rich, earthy tones evoke a sense of autumnal coziness.Â
Creating an autumn-ready home is all about warmth; visually, physically and emotionally. From tactile textures to thoughtfully designed lighting and energy-efficient features, small changes can make a big impact. For more seasonal inspiration, come and experience it all in person.
