Fall Color Schemes

 

COLORS OF CHANGING LEAVES

This California living room showcases an autumn color palette — ranging from pale yellow, soft pumpkin orange, and deep crimson — much like the changing color of leaves. Designer Kathryn M. Ireland also used a variety of patterns and textures.

 

 

DEEP RED WALLS

In this "drinks room," the deep red upholstered door and walls are reminiscent of a juicy, ripe red apple.

A BRIGHT YELLOW ENTRYWAY
The brightness of this entry hall, designed by Lee Bierly and Christopher Drake, feels like a day in late September. The leaves have only begun to change, and the sun is still shining bright.

LIGHTENED SHADES OF PUMPKIN

Peachy shades of pumpkin set the mood in this cheerful breakfast room.

 

 

 

YELLOW ADDS WARMTH TO A KITCHEN

Smith had the kitchen cabinets painted a warm, mellow shade of yellow while the seating area is in orange, both shades reminiscent of yellow and butternut squash. The neutral wooden chairs and stools blend the breakfast room and the kitchen together.

 

 

MAPLE ORANGE-RED CARPET

This living room feels warm and cozy. The vintage carpet is the color of late-autumn maple leaves, orange-red.

 

 

ROMANTIC, SOFT GOLDEN ORANGE

Soft golden orange colors to provide romantic ambiance and warmth to this luxurious master bath.
