Early mornings of greying grass concealed by thin veils of silver frost.
Hazy beams of sunlight obscured by the Aurelian remnants on the otherwise bare branches.
The unfathomably warm aroma of pine needles and trodden-on damp leaves.
As the nights get longer, ernest interiors, boasting the same clarity as your white-washed summer minimalist rooms become the "things of the season." Warmth is valued, texture is key and subtle, warm tones come into their element.
This season, I'll be looking at ways of applying a minimalist approach to my Autumn/Winter interior re-shuffle.
Throws.
This purchase from Eleanor Pritchard at Hauser & Wirth is everything one could wish for.
Lavish quality, classic finishing and all with the simplicity of neutral colours and a geometric edge.
Bedclothes.
The transition from lighter cotton to brushed cotton signifies the beginning of Autumn just as clearly as the shortened days.
Envelope oneself in comfort and uncomplicated simplicity.
One has the chance to play around with gestures of autumnal colour and texture here, too.

Candles and Lighting
Often, spaces shrink into sullen looking things when the weather is grey.
To me, a happy space is a space that is lit with a multitude of candles in neutral vanilla shades.
Plain or intricately carved, scented or for the glow alone- there is something significantly homely about a faint flicker.
 
Vintage Cows and Market Stall Candle.
Found Chair and Assortment of glass jars.
Texture
Quilting, crochet, leather, fur, flannel, wood, wool- the list goes on and on.
Texture adds a certain substance to a room.
In order to certify that a space doesn't possess a "dull feeling" or a "sense of nothingness or emptiness.", one has the option to bulk up a room with a variety of textures- for a tactile and softer, more interesting finish.
Cowhide on white-washed bare floorboards
Sheepskin on leather
Most coveted piece? Peace of mind.
Ciao for now,
