3 country living room schemes for autumn
Artisan craft
Look to the senses for an updated, confident modern take on homely simplicity, grounding pared-back style and open-plan, light-flooded spaces with wood and other warm natural textures.
Handcrafted furniture and accessories add a loose Arts and Crafts vibe, framed by wooden panelling on walls and ceilings.
A palette of chalk pink, knocked-back mustard and olive green adds warmth, while a modern neutral sofa pulls the room together with a fresh, contemporary focus.
House of print
Match the drama of autumn’s transformation with a modern country cottage aesthetic just the right side of theatrical. Layering pattern on pattern, mixing block print and graphic styles, on rugs, lampshades and wallpaper-covered MDF arches fills spaces with a playful style that feels organically imperfect.
Anchor the energy with oxblood or cobalt walls and a classic sofa in muted heather tones, updated with generous patterned cushions in natural dye tones.
Woodland trail
As autumn days cool, it’s a time for drawing in and returning to our roots in snug living rooms that cradle body and soul. Take nature’s lead in reclaiming any still space – using wallpaper covered in flowers, trailing leaves and woodland motifs with nods to William Morris on dramatic dark backgrounds of terracotta or rich teal.
Colour-drenched ceilings soften sharp seasonal light, while sumptuous sofas in earthy colours inspire afternoons of blissful hibernation.
