This month, the trending colour is Brown. Brown is the perfect autumnal colour. A grounding colour that evokes feelings of warmth and cosiness. Brown works in perfect harmony with the increasing popularity of natural materials in our homes. It sits beautifully with natural soft furnishings such as sisal, linens and soft cottons.

The growing popularity of the deep, dark, chocolate tones provide a striking backdrop for modern interiors. Dark brown adds a similar strong depth of colour as black or midnight blue. However, it brings with it an underlying warmth and gentleness

How to use: Remember not to go overboard with it. 

As with all colours, there is an exciting variety of brown shades which you can enjoy. Softer shades including light tans, mochas and dark cream tones can be used as a modern twist on shades of white in a contemporary take on monochrome design.

Mid shades of coffee and chocolate brown work extremely well with accessories in a range of décor themes, dark browns are an elegant replacement for black.

Which colours go with Brown:

Brown sits closely to other natural shades, especially creams and neutral tones. 

Brown and Orange

The brown and orange combination works as it’s pulled straight from nature. You need only think of autumn for a moment to think of all the beautiful brown and orange leaves scattered over the ground.

Brown and Green

Combining brown and green again creates a fresh, natural feel in the home but it is important to think about placement of these colours. After all, you don’t want to accidentally create a camouflage feel in your home.

Brown and Pink

This duet is a little less nature-inspired, but it looks beautiful when paired correctly. When adding pink to a predominantly brown space, consider using dusky shades of pink, or even more coral tones to add sophisticated pops of colour into your design theme.

Brown and metallic tones

Metallic tones can sometimes be a bit tricky, however with brown they really shine! Whether you pick traditional metallic tones such as gold, silver, or bronze – or something different like a metallic red, blue or pink – brown will help you to frame these dynamic colours and make the most of their sparkle.
