Fill the Nursery with Fall Brilliance: Trendy Colors that make a Difference

Depending on where you live and your own local climatic conditions, you are either experiencing the end of summer or the very first days of fall. Of course, we cannot get our homes ready for fall festivities once the season is well and truly here. The preparations, much like in the case of a switch in the wardrobe need to start early and that is exactly the advantage we wish to give our by showcasing the hottest decorating trends of fall 2020 for various rooms of your house as early as possible. Today, we move away from the usual lineup of bedrooms, kitchens and living spaces as we take a look at perfect hues that usher fall goodness into the nursery.

Fall nursery trends are much more than seasonal hues that need to be shifted out once you start experiencing the chill of winter. In fact, these colors create a ‘fall inspired’ setting in the nursery no matter what the season is outside. If you love the changing hues of reddish-orange leaves, beautiful sunsets and autumn violets, then you will adore these gorgeous nurseries and the restrained beauty that they exude. Step into the captivating world of nurseries draped in fall colors

That Perfect Orange

Too much of bright orange in the nursery is never a good idea and one that we would definitely not recommend. Bright colors with glossy finish tend to keep your kids up longer and while you always need some color in the nursery, an overdose of orange is definitely not recommended. But you can use the color in its more matte form and shades like cantaloupe, papaya whip and melon to ensure that the backdrop is not too glaring. Mellow orange shades coupled with bright yellow and orange accents thrown into the mix perfectly epitomize the ‘natural colors’ of fall at their beautiful best.

Yellow with a Mellow Twist

Much like orange, bright and glossy yellow hades usually are reserved for nurseries with a more ‘summer’ vibe. With the fall theme you would want lighter, mellow yellows to shape the background in the room and combining orange with yellow in here is a smart idea. If you want to usher in just yellow accents into a white modern nursery, then there is a larger scope to using brighter shades of the color. Dark beige, light lemon yellow, mellow butter and many more – there are plenty of lovely yellow shades that you can try out in the nursery and create styles that range from contemporary to Mediterranean.

Violets take Bloom!

You might feel that violet nurseries do not fully capture the beauty of fall at its eye-catching best, but it is still a color that is incredibly popular this time of the year. Violet nurseries are just perfect for your little princess and offer an escape from the mundane shades of pink that seem to be used pretty much in every girls’ nursery. Sophisticated and stylish, the color instantly grabs your attention and can be used both to create magical backdrops and also fascinating accents in the modern nursery.

  • Blackened Wood Apartment

    Taiwanese architecture studio CTT Architects designed this interior project for a doctor in Taipei City. The apartment is located on the 21st floor of the residential tower nestled in the mountains surrounding the Taipei Basin. The design concept places emphasis on the connection to the surrounding vistas. In contrast with the original layout, the living area has been rearranged such that one can enjoy the amazing urban night views whilst introducing the external greenery inside during the day. We have also tailored the layout to meet the requirements of the client’s modern life. Following a busy day at work, he can completely unwind in the living room in the midst of the mesmerising urban night views; and be awoken by the dappled morning sunlight reflecting off the surrounding green mountains. We believed that every aspect of an interior design requires a bespoke response to its own contextual surrounding as well as to the individual needs of the occupants. The different spatial functions such as bedroom and bathroom are seen as different grey units in the public space. However, homely styling is found inside the master bedroom. Wooden finishings are used to complement subtle light grey walls allowing the stunning views to be the main element – lush green mountain landscapes. At the entrance to the apartment, the simple grey wall with a small bench gives an air of simplicity in complete contrast with the mountain views seen through the expanse of the three window units, which speak for themselves. In the kitchen and dining area, the open plan provides ample space that can be adapted flexibly to suit the changing needs of the modern city dweller. In terms of material selection, fine textured black charred timber panels are deliberately chosen to frame the surrounding mountain and city views. The design strategy is to use the black charred wall to contrast with the green and sky during the day; at night, the blackened panels blend seamlessly into the night view. The custom-made black island comes with black taps to contrast with the white kitchen joinery behind. When it comes to detailing, our approach is to delineate different architectural elements through shadow gaps. For example the walls and ceilings are detached using shadows gaps which are also accentuated by indirect lighting after sunset. Every architectural element has been detached including the ceiling, beams, and walls to showcase themselves as individual elements and avoiding detractive decorations.

  • Jungle Keva

    Situated in Tulum, this small boutique hotel rises between the trees, in which the main concept consisted in preserving 70% of the existing vegetation in order to build around it. By achieving this, every space of the project is always in relation to its natural surroundings. The hotel has five 50m2 lodges, formed by a double height room, a mezzanine or “tapanco”, a terrace and an indoor-outdoor bathroom. At the back of the lot the social areas are located, with a dining space and yoga pavilion hanging in cantilever over the pool. The main idea of this water element is to be extruded from the ground in between the vegetation. For this reason, two old zapote trees were preserved, which look as they were rising from the pool itself. All the project is composed by local materials, as well as low maintenance and natural textures, which provide a warm atmosphere to the buildings. A particular finish found on the walls is “chukum”, a Mayan stucco characteristic of the region, which uses a tree resin to give its distinctive color, appearance and durability. The objective was to use materials that age with dignity, so that with the passing of time the architecture acquires character and a deeper sense of belonging. The different volumes of the complex are scattered along the lot, between the trees and stone paths, which provide a sensation of being in a small village in the Mayan jungle. Throughout the design process there was a search for pure forms and natural materials that could blend with the surrounding context. In a sense, Jungle Keva is like an abstraction or simplification of vernacular architecture, easy to read, simple and with a social, natural and economic conscience.
