The leaves are changing colour and the evenings are getting shorter, autumn is here. What better way to jump into the cooler season than to cosy up your home with some fabulous colours! We’ve teamed up with some amazing colour experts to bring you the trending colours for The Colour Edit Volume 2.
This Volume’s colour experts include:
Colour: Reinvent (walls) and Temperance (chest of drawers)
Coming into the cooler months, we are looking at richer hues to create a warm atmosphere in the home. The palette our experts created combines deeper tones with calming colours to create a balanced scheme. As well as warmer colours, biophilic design (bringing the outside in), a trend that will long continue, is also echoed in this palette.
Our hero shade is Pine Marten, an intriguing and versatile colour. A deep and grounding shade of brown that is perfect for a feature wall or for panelling.
Esker Ridge is an ideal complimentary colour to balance the striking Pine Marten. Esker Ridge, a warm neutral, works well in open plan spaces and is an ideal base colour to combine with richer tones.
Temperance, the next complimentary colour, is a beautiful neutral shade that exudes minimalism and modernity. A beautiful accompaniment to all the Volume 2 colours.
Adding in a more vibrant hue, Tuscan Tile is a beautiful marriage of terracotta tones and warm red brick shades. This shade works well as a standalone colour or is perfect for adding a pop of colour to your home.
Our final colour, Reinvent, ties the whole scheme together. Reinvent is a subtle off white that adds balance to warmer colour schemes. A complimentary tone to lighter contemporary colours and deep, moody statement shades; perfect for this palette.
Speaking on the Colour Edit Vol. 2 scheme, Emma Edmonds said “this volume reflects the current theme of bringing the outside in. Warming up your home for cosy nights in. With a nod to the 1960s with a modern twist. I love specifying Colourtrend paints. Always beautiful colours with fabulous hard-wearing finish.”
