Come autumn, and people the world over get ready to give their homes a face lift. Giving the house a makeover during autumns is a universal phenomenon. The change in temperature sort of signals you to get all geared up for the winters. In many places, autumn is the ideal time to get your home look spic and span for the array of festivities to follow, like Christmas, Diwali, autumn foliage or koyo in Japan and so on. This is also the busiest season for interior decorators. Let’s have a look at what will work for our beautiful homes the coming season.
Usually, the colours that we see outside like orange, brown, red, olive green have a great appeal on our senses and recreate nature’s brilliant colour palette inside your home. One of the first and easiest things to do when you start with your redecorating is the painting. Once you are through with it, you can go on to the rest. The colour forecast for this year is incredibly vibrant, but with considerable versatility. More and more designers are recommending hues inspired from the daily life. From adding accents to a room, new themes and styles or simply redecorating from scratch, colours have an extensive option. Homeowners should be aware of the latest trends before splashing around their home.
Paint companies spend hundreds of thousand of money to watch, research and then manufacture keeping in terms with upcoming trends. This year’s top themes are
Technology- Hybrid Colors
Fashion- Nautical Movement, Rich Earth
Cultural awareness- Brazil, Russia, India, China, and Egypt
Travel- Coastal Living
Technology- Hybrid Colors
Demographics- Being aware of who you are appealing to
Pop Culture- Think Pink
Nature- Bright Rainforest hues and contrasting colors
Environment- environmental concerns and Green Design (may not be the colour green itself).
Yellow is a hot colour this season. This positive and optimistic colour is ideal in all its forms. The rich gold of Indian curries and spices is popular. Designers have also introduced a culinary palette inspired by the brightly coloured cuisines which stimulates the senses.
The Travel palette is unique because it takes its cue from faraway lands and past memories. You can bring your journey experiences back as you can display your travel treasures against richly coloured walls. Some hot choices are Deep reds like Russia’s earthy beetroot, tropical reds which will remind you of the rainforests of Brazil, and even terracotta reds like that of roof tiles. You can bring the coast home with splashes of blue. Mediterranean blue, primary blue, delicate sea glass and navy blue are the colours to look out for.
The beauty and wonder of the natural world can serve to be a great inspiration. You can recreate nature’s scenic landscape in the comfort of your home by using the brilliant hues of nature.
Among individual colours, pink and white stand out. Pink is no longer a girl’s domain, as it has gone beyond to encompass all sections. Bubble gum pink, deep saturated pink and all has a foreseeable future. White has been taking the market by storm for quite some time. It can serve to be both soft and soothing as well as make strong statements. White mixed with fleshy pinks, pecan or nutmeg will give you a tranquil and peaceful escape from the outside din. While, if white is teamed with a splash of red then it can surely be enlivening.
