As the winter season draws near, our homes turn into cosy sanctuaries, offering warmth and comfort against the chill of the cold weather. With this in mind, we have compiled four cosy home furnishing ideas to turn those frosty days into warm welcomings.

The colour palette for Autumn/Winter 2024 consists of many colours to convey the feeling and atmosphere of warmth. It is soft and soothing. These colours include matcha greens, blush pinks, deep blues, regal purples and radiant yellows.

Incorporating these colours into your space can greatly influence your feelings and energy.

Four Essential Home Furnishing Tips for Winter

Cover your hard flooring

As much as we admire the aesthetics and character that hard flooring adds to a space, covering your floors with textured rugs during the chilly season can have a more significant impact. Textured rugs bring a cosy, warm feeling and enhance the visual appeal of any area. It's advisable to choose rugs with neutral colours and subtle patterns to harmonise with your space without overwhelming it.

Textured layers

The perfect element to any cosy space is the use of layering. Accessorise with layering several textured throws, coordinating scatter cushions and wall decor with warm textures and colours for a relaxed and homey feel. Incorporate heavy knits and faux furs with wools and silks for a luxurious feel.

Leather or brightly coloured couches are a great way to add character and colour to a space. Steer towards using contrasting dark shades to make the space seasonally appropriate.

Winter woods

Wood is an incredible material that carries many variations, benefits and versatility. Therefore, incorporating wood such as oak, mango wood or ash can create a warmer and more neutral palette for your space. Using these wood materials in coffee tables, side tables and larger pieces of furniture can accessorise the space for both the cold and warmer seasons. Wood displayed with imperfections is especially appealing in cosy rooms.

Home scents

There’s no warmer welcome than entering a home filled with comforting scents. Awaken your sense of smell by selecting the perfect home fragrance to capture the feeling of warmth and comfort. Infuse your space with the deep and earthy aromas of cedarwood, cinnamon, salted vanilla and nutmeg. Decorate your home with these scents through room sprays, reed diffusers, scented candles and oil or wax burners.
