Autumn colour stories for 2025
Autumn is more than cooler nights; it is also the moment interiors shift toward deeper tones, layered moods and seasonal richness. The UK design world is leaning into new colour notes: Solar Orange, a bold sunlit shade, True Joy Yellow, an uplifting buttery hue across 2025 forecasts, and a return to earthy greens and grounding neutrals.
This year, bedrooms have become a stage for colour storytelling. With textiles at the heart of design, a duvet cover or a simple throw can be the easiest way to let trend colours flow into your space.
Why orange and yellow?
Both colours have deep resonance. Orange brings warmth and energy, reminding us of sunsets and autumn leaves. Yellow signals optimism and brightness, similar to the golden light that softens September mornings. When paired with grey or other neutrals, these colours add vibrancy without overwhelming the room.
In 2025, UK interiors are embracing this citrus-inspired spectrum, cheerful, grounding and versatile enough to work in both modern city flats and countryside homes.
Trend 1: Solar Orange warmth
Orange appears across high street edits and editorial features as the season’s key accent. In bedrooms, one confident statement can transform the mood.
-
Try the Pink Coral Red Orange Premium Duvet Cover Set as a centrepiece.
-
Balance it with crisp white or grey percale sheets to keep the palette light.
-
Add texture at the foot of the bed with a light throw you already own, or browse our Seasonal Collection for timely accents.
The result is warm, seasonal and effortlessly stylish.
Trend 2: True Joy Yellow accents
True Joy Yellow is a bright, buttery tone designed to lift interiors. In the bedroom, yellow shines as an accent, a cushion, a pillowcase or a neatly folded throw.
-
Pair deep navy bedding with yellow accessories for a fresh, modern contrast. For example, use Leruum's Yellow Fitted Sheet with the Classy Navy Blue Greek Key Duvet Cover Set.
-
Use yellow sparingly, one or two touches brighten without overpowering.
-
If your room has white walls, even a single yellow cushion layered against crisp cotton percale creates a sunny lift on grey autumn mornings.
Trend 3: Earthy greens and grounding neutrals
Nature balances the bright citrus tones. Sandy beiges, stone greys and charcoal notes anchor the season’s palettes, while small green accents add calm.
-
For a timeless neutral base, consider geometric or key motifs such as the Oslo Grey Chevron Duvet Cover Set or the Pure Percale Bedding Olive Green & Lime Yellow Ditsy Floral Duvet Cover Set.
-
Prefer pattern with freshness in cooler tones, try Sevilla Blue Floral or the classic Blue Toile de Jouy Percale, both easy to pair with seasonal cushions and throws.
