It’s that time of year again when the air gets a little chillier, the jumper drawers are the fashion go-to, pumpkin-spiced lattes are the next best thing and leaves fall from trees when taking a chilly Sunday walk. But when thinking about autumn in the kitchen it’s the ideal way of adding warmth and comfort to your space and completing a seasonal makeover for one of the favourite times of the year.
We don’t want to grumble about the changes in the weather and darker nights, let’s embrace this beautiful season and create a cosy and homely space with delicious foods in our heart of the home. Below we take a look at the upcoming and key trends for autumn 2022 and how you can incorporate them into your bespoke handmade kitchen.
Rustic Finishes
Bring the outside inside with exposed brick walls, rattan furniture, metal accents and ceramics. You can embrace the touch of rustic through different elements, you don’t need to live in a restored farmhouse or converted barn. Another way of creating an earthy yet luxurious look is wooden floorboards, they are practical, full of installation properties and achieve the desired outcome for autumn.
Autumnal Colours
Forest greens and navy blues are on trend and have been for a while for a good reason. These particular colours add depth, warmth and snugness to any kitchen, big or small and subtly matches the changing seasons outside. Your kitchen cabinets can be hand-painted in these autumnal hues, or you could add it with the accessories you choose for example the tablecloth, chair cushions, rugs and hanging art.
Pantries Perfect For Autumn
There’s nothing more satisfying than decluttering the pantry as we prepare for the colder season. It allows us to get our kitchens ready for the indoor party season, shuffling our appliances around and bringing our favourite winter spices to the front. Make your larder more suited to the way you live your life through autumn, in the long run, it becomes much easier when preparing them hearty meals and entertaining friends and family.
Brass Hardware
Brass fixtures and fittings certainly celebrate autumn. The tone from the brass adds another layer of warmth to your space and a delicate sense of luxury. When the sun hits the brass, this soft reflection has the most mesmeric effect that looks simply beautiful. There are many ways to use brass details and add some warmth to your kitchen from drawer handles to cupboard knobs, and light fittings to kitchen appliances and taps to soap dispensers.
Chic Layers
Layering up in autumn is one of the best feelings and many people love it when they can add scarves, jumpers, coats and hats to their outfits. It’s a bit like our homes where we love to add soft furnishings such as rugs and blankets, curtains, cushions and anything else that makes us feel cosy. These extra layers create a new sense of depth and not just the warmth they bring. Welcome autumn into your kitchen with these layering ideas!
