As the evenings draw in, a room needs a different kind of comfort. Not a makeover, just a few considered changes.
Layer the textiles
Swap one linen cushion for wool, add a throw to the sofa and a rug where floors feel cold.
Light low, light often
Turn off the ceiling light and use lamps at different heights: a floor lamp by the sofa, a paper lamp on a shelf, candles on the table.
Autumn rooms are lit in pools, not floods.
Bring in a few branches in a stoneware vase. Nothing says the season has changed quite like it.
