[Rae]: Hi everyone, I'm Rae and this is Alex. Today, we’re talking about the latest paint trends for Autumn 2025.
[Alex]: That’s right, Rae. We’ll look at how these trends are influencing people’s lifestyles and wellbeing, and what’s exciting in the world of paint colour schemes this season.
[Rae]: So, Alex, let’s start with the big picture trends. We’re seeing a lot more neutrals and earthy tones coming into fashion, along with bold accent shades. What’s your take on that?
[Alex]: I think it reflects where we are globally – a lot of uncertainty. People want more positivity and warmth in their homes, which is why we’re seeing richer, more comforting colours take centre stage.
[Rae]: Exactly. The darker greys that used to dominate new builds are fading out, and we’re seeing those warm, inviting colours become the go-to choice.
[Alex]: Absolutely. Social media is full of these warmer tones, and I think that will only grow as we move through autumn. Hemway’s current palettes are a great example – I’m loving the Cappuccino Brown and Warm Beige. They feel grounding and cosy, just how I’d want my living room to feel. What about you, Rae? Any favourites?
[Rae]: I really like Pistachio and Chartwell Green. There’s something about bringing nature indoors – they work beautifully in kitchens, bathrooms, or as accent walls. Really calming and relaxing. Two others I love are Raspberry Red and Dark Lavender. They’re moody yet elegant – perfect for a statement dining area or bedroom.
[Alex]: Love those choices. Another one trending for me is Soft Khaki Beige. It’s such a versatile, timeless backdrop that makes small spaces feel bigger. I’m also drawn to Aubergine and Duck Egg Blue – playful and bold shades that bring life to a room. But yes, Soft Khaki Beige is definitely a favourite. It’s timeless and works anywhere. I’d also add Chartwell Green as one of the best accent colours around right now.
[Rae]: Totally agree. Let’s talk about how to use these colours in different spaces. I like using bold, playful tones for trims or furniture, and keeping earthy neutrals for full walls or larger rooms.
[Alex]: Exactly. And some of the pairings work beautifully together – Cappuccino Brown with Soft Khaki Beige, Chartwell Green with Warm Beige, and Dark Lavender with Duck Egg Blue. They complement each other really well.
[Rae]: Let’s also touch on matching colours to room size. The neutral, earthy tones are great for larger areas like kitchens, big bedrooms, or living rooms.
[Alex]: And the warmer, richer colours work brilliantly in smaller spaces – home offices, compact bedrooms, or small kitchens. It’s also worth noting how DIY trends are growing. More people are doing budget-friendly home makeovers, and I’m definitely one of them!
[Rae]: Same here. People want calm, restorative spaces that support their wellbeing.
[Alex]: Exactly. And we can’t forget accent painting – arches, stripes, and colour blocking are all big right now.
[Rae]: There’s also a growing shift toward eco-conscious paints – low VOCs and sustainable choices are becoming the norm.
[Alex]: Sustainability is huge. And Hemway’s not just offering eco-friendly paints – they also have sustainable tools like trays and rollers, which is great to see.
[Rae]: So, Alex, what are your favourite trends this autumn?
[Alex]: It’s a tough choice, but I love the warm neutrals and earthy tones we talked about – they’re timeless. At the same time, those classy yet bold accent colours really appeal to me for statement walls.
[Rae]: I’m with you on that. Do you think these colours will stay in trend?
[Alex]: Definitely. Shades like Soft Khaki Beige and Warm Beige are timeless – they’ll be around for a long time.
[Rae]: So to summarise, this autumn is all about warm, earthy neutrals balanced with bold pops of colour.
[Alex]: Exactly. We’ve covered a lot today! I’d encourage everyone to experiment – see how your colour schemes line up with these trends and have fun with it.
