Autumn is well on its way in the northern hemisphere. To mark the seasonal shift, we’ve compiled a lookbook<\/a> of eight open-plan living rooms<\/a> cosied up with warm, earthy tones.<\/span><\/p>\n

From mountainous India to the Scottish coastline, these living spaces combine finishes and soft furnishings that nod to the colours of autumn leaves with views out to nature.<\/p>\n

Bid summer farewell and welcome in these eight homely projects from around the world.<\/p>\n

This is the latest in our lookbooks series, which provides curated visual inspiration from Dezeen’s archive. For more inspiration, see previous lookbooks featuring marble kitchens<\/a>, terrazzo bathrooms<\/a> and homes in former factories<\/a>.<\/p>\n
