25 Paint Colors That Will Bring Autumn Vibes Into Your Home All Year Round

Fall is the coziest time of the year, with the vibrant green flora of summer fading to multifaceted oranges, yellows, reds, and purples. Inside, too, people tend to move away from bold and vibrant summer colors to softer and more subdued shades, creating a cozy and seasonal home.

The cozy aesthetics traditional to fall decor don't just have to be contained to three months out of the year, though. While some things aren't able to be a year-round staple — pumpkins, mums, etc. — others, like paint colors, can become permanent features in your home. While most people only think of shades of red, orange, and yellow, there are other classically fall colors like purple, brown, beige, green, and even some shades of blue (via Storables). Whether you paint an entire room, an accent wall, a hallway, cabinets, or any other feature of your home, keep reading for some classic fall paint colors to incorporate into your home year-round.

1. Benjamin Moore Autumn Orange

Orange is one of the most classic and timeless fall colors. So much so that Benjamin Moore has a whole paint color named after the season. This paint color is a rich, spicy, dark orange, and is perfect for an accent wall or to make a large space feel more intimate.

Purple is another gorgeous fall color. For a lighter, less in-your-face option, go for a mauve tone, like this purple from Benjamin Moore. It's light enough that it could go in any room in your home, but it would look particularly stunning in a living room or bedroom.

5. Benjamin Moore Antique Bronze

Warmer, golden shades of yellow are a quintessential fall shade, like this golden bronze paint from Benjamin Moore. The dark mustard shade would look great in an antique-themed dining room or kitchen.

6. Glidden Capuccino

For a more neutral shade of orange, go for a dark, nearly brown, coffee shade, like this one from Glidden. A more neutral shade like this would go great in a main room like a dining room or living room.

7. Benjamin Moore Warm Sienna

The same can be said for red — darkening the shade and adding some brown undertones makes it more neutral and easy to use in your home all year. Since this warm red from Benjamin Moore is still quite intense, consider only using it to paint an accent wall.
