Using Autumn Colors when Selling a Home

Color affects us in a visceral way, and Autumn is the perfect time of year to bring in delicious oranges, lovely yellows and passionate reds into a decorating pallet.
Autumn colors are particularly soothing to home buyers who associate the Fall with family and gatherings, cooler temperatures and the excitement of the upcoming holidays.
Deep red is a color of romance and of strength. Deep red is perfect as an accent color in a table cloth, pillow or towel. Pair the deep red with a dark orange for a festive autumn look.
Dark orange is a warm color, representing the sun and fire and appetite. Orange has been shown to cause your body to increase its oxygen supply to the brain and stimulate mental activity. Orange is also a very contemporary and youthful color, so be sure to “mature” it by using its darker shades and pairing with red.

Yellow is cheerful and youthful. Yellow makes people happy and when paired with Autumn’s reds and oranges, it creates a lovely combination that is clean and seasonal.

Autumn colors do not need to saturate a space, but rather accent it. When it comes to the rich hues of fall, go subtle, but stylish, fun & festive!
