Autumn Color Personalities
Most people associate Autumn with orange color palettes. In fact, colors in Autumn palettes have a warmth to them with underlying tones of sunset yellows and rusty reds..
Colors like hot oranges, ochres, purples, muted olives and greens in varying intensity dominate this palette. It’s all about bringing the natural elements of autumn, with all its hues, inside the home.
How do you know if you are an Autumn Color Personality?
Autumn color personalities have these traits and design preferences:
They tend to have strong personal values and are loyal.
Not easily impressed by fancy packaging.
Love the outdoors.
Are more at home in the countryside and the outskirts of cities.
They have bursts of enthusiasm and a strong sense of perserverance.
Quality, history, and durability are what motivate their choices of furniture and design elements.
(Autumn personalities may find it difficult to create spaces around them that combine their need to be earthy and practical while having their favorite elements around them while also achieving a sense of balance and clarity. Our examples show interiors that fulfill all of these desires.)
Their homes are often filled with strong, eclectic furniture with comfort and durability as the primary reason for their selection.
Love antiques and all things historical as well as elements of wood and nature.
Use layered accessories to decorate their spaces.
Are happier with environmentally friendly alternatives to most things, because being environmentally friendly is important to them.
Prefer light to medium toned wood, copper, leather, terra-cotta and ocherous colored stone.
Are less formal with their decorating choices and prefer a space which is designed to be cozy, warm and inviting.
Other color personalities may feel that the Autumn’s home has too many design elements for their tastes, but it is this choice that makes the autumn personality space feel like home to them. There are ways that an autumn’s home can be designed with their needs met in a balanced yet elegant manner. Expect lots of conversations around a fireplace in this personality's home with comfy chairs.
