Trending: Autumn Spice Design Moments

Around here, we live for all things fall. The leaves, the sweaters, the apple orchards—you name it. But when those autumnal vibes translate to the world of design, that’s when we really take notice. Last year, we curated the best fall colors for your home, but this time around, we’re honing in on one specific hue. We’ve deemed this color autumn spice, but you could also say it lives within the cinnamon, rosewood and terra cotta families. With just the right richness to balance any neutral space, we can’t wait to watch this fall-inspired hue trend all throughout the year.
