There are few things as cozy and comforting as the fall season. The leaves are changing and the nights are getting longer. In addition to bringing its unique set of activities with it, the fall also has the bonus of inspiring many interior designers to create cozy interiors filled with natural light and warm accents.
From orange pillows to golden accents and everything in between, the fall is perfect for spicing up your home.
1. Install a Cozy Rug
Rugs are a great way to extend your interior design into flooring. Many rugs are made with synthetic materials, but you can also find rugs made from natural materials. Whether you go for synthetic or natural, you can find different area rugs online to fit almost any design aesthetic.
You can also find a rug in just about any size. You’ll likely want to get a rug that can fit the area where you want to put it. You can also get a rug to match any common design aesthetics in your home, such as a rustic rug for your kitchen or a bold, geometric rug for your living room.
2. Install Soft Lighting
It can be as simple as going for dim lights in your living room, or you can even invest in some fall-themed lights for your home. If you go for the latter, you can find lights in almost any shape or design.

Besides just being a decorative feature, soft lighting is also great for helping you achieve the perfect mood for any room in your home. It’s especially useful for the living room, where you want just enough light to read or watch TV without getting in the way of your dimming to relax or sleep.
3. Add Some Faux Fur
Faux fur is a great way to add a little more texture to your interior. As with most things in interior design, knowing where to put it and where not to put it is important.
Faux fur can be used in just about any room, but it is most commonly used in the living room.

For example, you could put a large faux fur blanket on your couch for added coziness and a pop of color or use it to cover your coffee table.
4. Go Bold with Your Wall Art
Wall art is a great way to add a bold accent to your fall-themed interior. You can go for traditional framed art pieces or get creative and do something bolder.
Wall art doesn’t have to be a painting that hangs on the wall. You can get creative and go for a cluster of 3D leaves or a collection of posters framed together.

If you want to go with traditional framed art pieces, you can find plenty of options in bold designs.
5. Add Some Throw Pillows
You can find throw pillows in any color, design, and pattern and you can find them in almost any design aesthetic. Throw pillows are a great way to add some pop to any room in your home, but they’re especially useful in the living room.
You can put them on your couch or coffee table; they’re also easy to move around if you want to switch things up. Besides being a decorative feature, throw pillows are also great for helping you achieve the perfect comfort level in your home.
6. Add A Pop of Bright Color
Investing in a bright color piece of furniture can add some coziness to your home interior. You can find any piece you want in any color, including couches, chairs, tables, cabinets, and more.
If you want to stick with the traditional pieces, you can find couches in orange and other fall-themed colors. But if you want something bolder, choose brighter or bolder furniture. You can find orange or fall-themed cabinets.

Most of these adjustments are simple to make, but the overall effect they have on the appearance and atmosphere of your home can be quite significant.
