London and design trends prepare for the autumn season

As the autumn equinox approaches, various seasonal trends and events are emerging in the design, fashion, and cultural sectors.

In interior design, 2027 color trends are beginning to surface, moving away from neutrals toward more emotive shades. Notable announcements include Valspar’s ‘Cottage Door’ powder blue and Sherwin-Williams’ ‘Celery’ green. Additionally, ruffles and frills are resurfacing as a major decor trend, with retailers like Next offering viral bedding sets featuring these textures.

London’s cultural scene is also preparing for the season with various exhibitions, including the Bayeux Tapestry at the British Museum and Henry Moore’s ‘Monumental Nature’ at Kew Gardens. To mark the astronomical equinox on September 23, residents can participate in diverse activities ranging from Druidic gatherings on Primrose Hill to sound baths and vigils.
