7 Autumn Colour Schemes

Is autumn your year-round aesthetic? If so, you’ll love this section of our article. We delve into neutral and colourful paint colours that remind us of autumn but can be used all year round. You’ll find 7 mood boards below with 3 paint colours: a primary colour for the main walls and 2 accent colours you can match. Accent colours are great for trims, panelling, wallpaper ideas and decor colour schemes.

Autumn Colour schemes - neutral

If you love calmig neutrals mixed with earthy hues, opt for this colour scheme. The Pale Walnut is a lovely neutral that can pair with muted brown and yellow to uplift it while feeling calm. Perfect in Victorian or mid-century modern homes.

If you’re looking for a cozy scheme for your room, consider this palette, which features a muted brown to add warmth. This scheme becomes moody and snug when paired with Caramel Latte and Perfectly Taupe. I would recommend using this scheme in a well-lit space. If you like these colours but your room is dark, consider swapping out Perfectly Taupe for a lighter grey.

Autumn isn’t just about red and orange colours, green has its place there too. For this colour scheme, we’ve gone rich, dark and moody with Farrow & Ball Bancha, paired with gold and grey to add a hint of luxury to a room.

Fallen, crispy leaves of autumn have inspired this colour scheme. We’ve chosen a soft white-grey as a canvas colour for the primary colour. To keep the scheme feeling warm, we’ve opted for a warm terracotta and Cherry Truffle dark brown. When combined, the Porcelain against the dark browns creates a crisp look, reminding us of the leaves on the ground.

dark orange colour scheme for the living room

Go bold with autumn’s vibrant orange hues. Charlotte’s Locks by Farrow & Ball is a lovely warm and bold red-orange that would be lovely in rooms such as the kitchen, dining room and living room. It would also look great in a hallway. Pair with creamy colours like Toasted Almonds and Natural Wicker to keep the colour feeling muted and cozy.

If Charlotte’s Locks is too bright for you, we’ve created a more subtle colour scheme using a sandy red colour that works well with beige and creams for a cozy space.

Our last colour scheme is bold, bright, vibrant and expressive. We’ve used inspiration from conkers to create a fun scheme that can be used in a kitchen, living room and even a bedroom! The vibrant Kiwi Crush Green is perfect for low-lit rooms as it’s a yellow-green that can create warmth in a space.
