The first of the leaves has started to fall. Layering your look is a subtle way to switch up your interior for autumn.
New season means a new colour palette.
Emulate nature and plump for butter-soft leathers in tan, prints in conker brown, damson and other berry shades, and tactile textures.
Add texture underfoot
Stockholm-based Evelina Kroon’s Layered rug collection mixes colour and grids in a very modern way that intersects art and interior design.
The 100 per cent wool collection is bold and confident and includes Ochre Fields, shown, which comes in seven different sizes.
The 270 cm by 180 cm size costs €1,550 from Rugs.ie.
Scudding clouds
If you’re looking for a diffuse light source for a dining room or lounge that resembles a scudding cloud, Flos’s Maap W2, designed by Erwan Bouroullec, features a form that can be freely shaped to suit your space.
This large-scale wall light consists of an internal lattice steel structure covered with Tyvek fabric attached using magnets.
The creased surface can be reshaped as you wish, making it a tactile addition to a space. It costs €921 from Lights.ie.
Colour refresh
Country house décor is trending. Graham & Brown’s new Roselle Grove paper is an Indian chintz that is redolent of English country piles.
It costs €250 per roll and is part of a new collection that is centered around a new paint colour, called Rose Earth.
It is like a cross between terracotta and dusty pink and will work equally well in classic and contemporary settings, adding visual warmth to either.
Four litres of matte emulsion costs €165, excluding delivery.
Tan lines for autumn
Retro-inspired in shape, the Balboa sofa showcases the texture, colour and beauty of natural tan leather, a material that will age gracefully.
It has plump, foam-filled cushions that you will want to sink into as screen time returns. It costs €1,949 to order from DFS.ie
Check out new look bedding
Bring a fresh look to your bedroom with this checked bedding set, made from pure cotton gauze for a lightweight feel.
The 100 per cent cotton jacquard weave creates texture for a contemporary effect.
The cover fastens with an easy zip closure. A king-size costs €105 at Marks & Spencer.
