Autumn Interior Trends That Will Complement Roof Lanterns in Essex
14 Aug
Finding the right style for your home can be tricky. Your desired theme must run throughout your house accordingly and in-style. You’re here maybe because you’re looking to invest in a roof lantern, and maybe concerned how it will fit into your house, or you’re looking for a bit of inspo.
Whatever the reason, it might be worth noting some autumn trends which will give your roof lantern that extra wow factor. So, we thought we’d give you some ideas of what’s making a comeback and trending today!
Neutral Colors
Ever heard of the saying less is more? Our roof lanterns suit every home differently. Neutral colors really can make your room aesthetically pleasing. When we say this, we mean it. Most suited to a square lantern, neutral colors will give you endless options. They coordinate with all other colors, so if in the future when this autumn trend is no more, you can add to it or change it around. They give you the freedom to use any kind of bold design, such as a roof lantern, and will ensure your guests will walk into the room and see it as a stylish and elegant feature. Popular tones are of an oatmeal and pale wood, which offer a soft, warm feel to a room. Roof lanterns will complete the room and offer class and sophistication with natural light drawing in on your simplistic but powerful look.

Black and White
Love it or hate it, but black is back! It is sophisticated and can add real depth to a space, especially when the color is positioned well with light. This is an essential to having a darker color in any room, which is why a roof lantern would be the perfect pair for this. Picture this: your kitchen is a combination of black and white. Your cupboards are of a charcoal color with a white marble surface. Then to add, you have a rectangular roof lantern. This type of lantern can run parallel with your kitchen and transform it into a bright and spacious room. Equally, a roof lantern can be placed directly over your breakfast table in your kitchen and really hammer in on that space. Designer Harvey Jones speaks about bold cabinetry colors and how black is becoming a popular choice, especially for the colder months. The key to having black is balance, which is why a lantern really would work hand-in-hand with a room of this theme (we’re not at all biased!).

Tartan
As obvious as this might sound, tartan really is the epitome of autumn. Once associated with the brighter colors of red, yellow and blue, tartan has now shifted towards a more natural palette of colors. It just wouldn’t be autumn without a touch of tartan! Finding the right shade however is crucial, but if found, can work very well alongside a glass roof lantern. You can pair sofas with curtains, and blinds with blankets. This underneath a square lantern would be a great option to subtly contribute to a room rather than taking over. Perhaps the perfect design for a dining room, tartan can offer a modern but more traditional look, which is why the trend is set to take off later this year.
Natural light is a great thing, and we don’t just mean for selfies! It can complement your room and show off features that deserve to be noticed. At Aliwood, we believe a roof lantern is what can make or break a room. If you think this might be suited to you, ensure you’re following trends on social media and think of a concept which will work for your home.
