Autumnal Accents

You can get too much of a good thing! Using a lot of bright reds, oranges and yellows in your home can sometimes look a bit much! But used in the right way, to accent and add pops of colour they will look stunning and add real personality to your home.

This is why a stair runner is such a good choice and at Maltbys we have a huge range of stair runners with so many gorgeous colours and edgings to choose from, your friends and family will have runner envy, especially if you choose colours that are vibrant, it can be really quite striking and beautiful.

Autumnal Orange 

 Have you ever seen how beautiful the changing colours of the trees in Autumn look against a crystal blue sky? It’s because they are complimentary colours and bring each other like no other! Orange embraces the rich passionate side of red and emits the sunny vibrance of yellow. It is a very versatile colour and can envoke a variety of aesthetics in interior design.

If you are looking to create a more contrasting feel to your hallway this autumn then this colour combination is the one to go for. 

How to use warm grey!

 Grey isn’t a natural autumnal colour but its works so well with vibrant colours and really brings out the pop in the other colours that is both effective and allows you to change up your interior colour scheme, rather than constantly renewing your carpet or flooring.

Since grey is a neutral, it really does go with almost every other colour. The key to a great match is in the tone co-ordination. Warm grey works well with other warm-toned colours such as autumnal palettes and will create that cosy seasonal feeling. 

Gracious Green 

Green is all around us that’s why the colour never goes out of fashion and also is known to create a calming environment.

From delicate light green to sage and dark holly green it really is so versatile and will always look fabulous in your home. It has been a popular colour trend in fashion, furniture and interior design in recent years and predicted to stay. This is partly due to fashion trends with eco-friendly attitudes and additionally the frustration of isolation from the pandemic whereby people have introduced the outdoors indoors through colour, textures, and plants. 

You can keep that ever green look and maintain a relaxing environment by adding splashes of this colour to high-traffic areas of your home. By adding a stair runner to the hallway in this colour scheme, is one of the best places to do this, as when you walk in you will be greeted by the calming effects of green. 

And lastly, we get very busy on the run up to Christmas as so many customers want new flooring ready for the Christmas season……so if you do too, please pop in as soon as you can!
