Fall for these rich autumn colours
Summer might be over for another year, but that certainly doesn’t mean you need to tone down. Pantone have released their predictions for the hit colours of autumn and we’re loving these rich hues. Colour of 2014, radiant orchard, sets the pace with other purple-based tones sangria and mauve mist joining the pack. Warm versions of traditionally cool greens, blues and greys also feature in cypress, royal blue, bright cobalt and aluminium. Aurora red and misted yellow eschew their brighter cousins, instead displaying a wonderful depth of colour that characterises this new-season palette. Here are some of our favourite finds in the hottest colours of autumn…
