As the nights draw in and the air turns crisp, our homes become our havens. Autumn and winter in the UK invite us to slow down, get cosy, and enjoy the warmth of our surroundings. A seasonal refresh doesn’t require a full redesign, just a few thoughtful changes in texture, colour, and lighting can transform your space into a snug retreat.
At John Preston Home, we’ve curated a beautiful selection of new arrivals to help you embrace the season in style. Here’s how to get your home ready for the colder months.
Layer Up with Soft Furnishings
Nothing says comfort quite like luxurious layers. Swap lightweight summer fabrics for rich textures, think chunky knits, velvets, and wool blends. A well-placed throw across your sofa or armchair adds instant warmth, while plush cushions in earthy tones such as rust, olive, and deep plum bring a seasonal colour palette indoors.
Our latest collection of throws and cushions has just arrived, perfect for adding warmth and texture to any living space.
Create a Warm Glow with Lighting
Shorter days call for clever lighting. Layer your light sources to create atmosphere by combining floor lamps, table lamps, and candles to achieve a soft, welcoming glow. Opt for warm white bulbs and lampshades in natural fabrics to diffuse light beautifully.
Explore our new lighting range in-store, from elegant statement lamps to subtle accent lights that transform the mood of your room.
Add Texture Through Rugs and Fabrics
A good rug not only grounds your space but also adds tactile comfort underfoot. Go for deep-pile or woven rugs that feel soft and inviting. Complement them with curtains in heavier fabrics such as linen or velvet to help retain warmth and enhance the seasonal aesthetic.
Our showroom features an inspiring selection of rugs and curtains to suit both modern and traditional homes.
Bring Nature Indoors
Autumn and winter are full of natural beauty and bringing that indoors is easier than you might think. Try decorating with dried foliage, seasonal wreaths, and wooden accent pieces. Natural textures like rattan, oak, and stone add depth and character, balancing out soft fabrics with a grounding, organic touch.
You’ll find a range of decorative accessories and vases perfect for seasonal styling at John Preston Home.
Introduce a Statement Piece
Sometimes all a room needs is a single update to feel completely new. A new armchair, coffee table, or artwork can redefine the atmosphere of your living area. Choose something that combines comfort with craftsmanship, a piece that makes you smile every time you walk into the room.
Pop into our Ashbourne showroom to discover beautifully crafted furniture and one-of-a-kind home accessories for the season.
Embrace the Season in Style
Your home should evolve with the seasons, reflecting the warmth, comfort, and character that define autumn and winter. Whether you’re layering textures, adjusting lighting, or simply adding a few cosy touches, small changes can make a big difference.
