Burnt Orange: Many of the leading paint manufacturers offer a selection of autumn inspired color palettes including copper, sugar maple, rich pumpkin, warm honey and warm golden yellow tones.

Vibrant Red: Red is a color which is known to inspire a feeling of excitement as well as stimulating the appetite. Deep rich wines and ruby reds work will in family rooms, dining rooms or as an accent color in the kitchen area.
