Architectural Digest has some advice for homeowners wishing to add some warm fall hues to their house without breaking the bank.

Hallways: “Hallways are great for displaying fall colors. A hall’s decorative scheme serves two purposes: to create an impression on arrival, setting the tone for the whole house, and to unite different parts of the house, making a smooth visual transition between rooms that might be decorated in a variety of styles and colors. Midtone neutrals are often used to achieve this.”

Stair Risers: “Paint the risers on a staircase with a bold autumn hue. This is not only practical in defining the stairs, making them easier to use, but it can disguise the scuff marks made by tiny feet. It also makes a bold personal statement that is decorative but not too overwhelming, as the use of strong color below the eye line is relatively easy to live with.”
