A FINE VINTAGE

There is something about the change in the light as the seasons transform that gives deep, rich shades a comforting allure. We explore this need for warmth and cocooning colour in our decorating feature on page 72. Browns are making quite the comeback, offering seasonal soothing comfort in tones of chocolate and mushroom. This particular shade, Vintage Wine, adds a smoky plum hue to the tawny brown depths, and is thus enlivened by red tones as a contrast – whether pumpkin orange or berry red.
