Fall Inspired Paint Colors To Warm Your Home

by Expert Contributor Rick Thompson of Thompson Custom Painting

With the right shade of paint, your home can be made to look warmer and more welcoming. You can completely transform the feeling of a room, even if the wall color is the only thing that you change.

As the days become shorter and the nights become cooler, we often find ourselves inspired to make our homes cozier and more inviting. Adding a fresh coat of paint to a room is a simple way to achieve this, but which colors are people drawn to at this time of year? From vibrant oranges to earthy greens and browns, fall is best known for its spectacular array of colors. If your walls are in need of an update, draw inspiration from autumn’s most beloved hues.

Dynamic Orange Color Combinations Orange is a traditionally earthy color, especially when it has brown undertones. When picking a shade of orange, choose a color that is more of a burnt orange or bronze.

Vivid Yellow Color Schemes Darker, more elegant yellow hues that resemble the marigolds and sunflowers of the fall season work well to bring warmth to a room. They’ll easily transition well into winter by pairing with red and green accents. Plus, they’ll give you a splash of sunlight during the months when the sun shines less.

Captivating Brown Color Palettes Browns don’t have to be boring. By capturing the essence of fall foliage with several other seasonal shades, softer browns can make any interior space feel warm and pleasant. Take a cue from nature and get inspired by these natural brown shades that are anything but neutral.

Exquisite Autumn Greens Evergreen trees in a rich, deep shade of green, or the color of moss covered ground peeking through the fallen leaves, evoke a feeling of abundance and renewal, which is perfect for the fall season! When picking a shade of green, try to choose one that has a bit of gray in the blend for a more grounded tone. Green paint pairs well with many other fall tones as well.

While we’re sad to see summer go, we love to see the character behind the rich, warm tones of this season of change. If you’re not ready to commit to painting a full room, these colors can also help guide smaller-scale projects like painting an accent wall or trim.
