From earthy tones to statement furniture, here’s how to bring the season’s defining looks into your space, along with our tips on how the right clock can complete the picture.
1. Nature’s colour palette
This autumn, colour is calm yet confident. Sage green continues to dominate, offering a soothing backdrop for both contemporary and classic interiors. Pair it with terracotta and dusty orange accents for warmth, while chocolate brown adds depth and grounding. A touch of light blue can balance the richness, while a pop of cherry red energises the mix.
Clocks in tonal finishes, like brass, matte sage, or charcoal black, make subtle yet striking additions to these natural palettes. A wall clock in a warm metal or earthy hue ties the space together without overpowering it.
2. Chunky and comfy
Autumn 2025 is all about furniture that hugs back. Oversized sofas, deep armchairs, and plush upholstery create an atmosphere of laid back luxury. These enveloping pieces invite you to slow down and stay a while.
To balance these generous proportions, pair them with a large statement wall clock, a design statement that echoes the room’s sense of scale. There’s also nothing that says ‘cosy’ quite like a charming mantel clock, so if you’re hoping to bring a sense of comfort to your space, a mantel or desk clock could be the ideal accessory.
3. 60s and 70s revisited
Retro influence continues to shine, with interiors leaning into mid century forms, warm woods, and playful colour accents. Think curved edges, mushroom lighting, and subtle geometric patterns, nostalgic but fresh.
A retro inspired clock can complete this look effortlessly. From vibrant mod style wall clocks to classic railway designs, Newgate’s collection channels the optimism of the 60s and 70s with a modern twist.
4. Bookshelf bonanza
Bookshelves are stealing the spotlight this autumn, with interiors celebrating modular, open shelving that showcases personality: art, plants, ceramics, and, of course, clocks.
A mantel or desk clock placed amongst your favourite reads adds an elegant finishing touch, blending function with flair, and adding a pop of personality.
