Fall 2024 Interior Design Trends
Let’s be honest and admit that we’ve all been there. As soon as September hits, our social media feeds become a never-ending scroll of orange pumpkins, artificial maple leaves, and “gather” signs that somehow made it into every home decor store in America.
But what if we told you Fall 2024 is taking a completely different (and, dare we say, more refined) approach to seasonal design?

2024 Fall Design Trends Mean More With Less
As a furniture studio focused on creating timeless pieces for design-savvy homeowners, we’ve always believed true style goes beyond seasonal knick-knacks.
This fall, the design world is finally on board, embracing a more refined approach that celebrates warmth, intention, and quality craftsmanship. It’s about creating spaces that feel cozy and inviting without sacrificing your carefully curated style.
Think of it this way: instead of turning your home into a temporary autumn display, this year’s trends are all about enhancing the inherent warmth and sophistication of your space.
Whether you’re a minimalist who likes clean lines, a mid-century fan who loves organic form (or just someone who believes good design should last longer than a season), Fall 2024’s design direction is exciting.
Let’s get into how the trends align with mid-century principles and show you how to create a space that feels fresh and seasonal – all without a single plastic pumpkin in sight.
Fall 2024 Design Ideas
Natural Materials & Rich Woods
This fall, designers are going towards warm, dark wood tones - a welcome change from the bleached and whitewashed looks of the past few years.
This trend aligns perfectly with modern mid-century design principles, where natural materials are the star of the show. Our Florence Collection, made from solid hardwoods, embodies this beautifully in finishes like Tiffany and Lychee. The key is to let the natural beauty of the wood shine while creating visual interest with clean lines and organic shapes.
Spalty Dog Design Tip
Create depth by mixing wood tones. Try pairing a Florence Sideboard in Tiffany finish with lighter accent pieces to get that layered, sophisticated look that’s so on trend this season. You’ll find that the warm, rich tones of the wood will bring warmth and texture to any space.
Organic Shapes & Curved Elements
Fall 2024 is all about curved and organic forms - a mid-century modern staple. This trend is moving away from sharp, angular shapes and towards softer, more natural silhouettes.
The gentle curves and proportions of our Florence Coffee Table are a perfect example of the balance between geometric precision and organic flow. These sculptural elements add visual interest without cluttering up the clean lines of modern design.
Mindful Minimalism
Unlike the cold minimalism of years gone by, Fall 2024 is all about “warm minimalism” - a more livable, intentional approach to simple design. This trend is about quality over quantity, about well-made pieces that serve both form and function.
The Florence Collection embodies this philosophy with clean lines and intentional design. Every piece, from our Media Console to our Highboy Dresser, is designed to be beautiful and functional, so you don’t need to add any extra decoration.
Spalty Dog Design Tip
Instead of adding seasonal accessories, let your furniture’s natural warmth be the fall ambiance.
A Florence Sideboard can anchor a room and provide storage - the ultimate in mindful minimalism. It’s the best way to create a cozy, comfortable space without cluttering it with unnecessary items.
Color Evolution
Fall is all about oranges and browns, but 2024’s color palette is more sophisticated and unexpected.
Deep, rich jewel tones like burgundy and forest green are making a statement while earthy neutrals are providing grounding elements. This is where our natural finish shines - it’s a blank canvas for these trending and timeless colors.
For those who want to go bold with color, our Toad finish is a deeper, more dramatic option that pairs perfectly with this season’s palette.
Spalty Dog Styling Tip
Create a modern fall vignette by placing a simple arrangement of dried branches in a sculptural vase on a Florence Side Table. This is minimal decorating at its best and honors the clean lines of mid-century design.
How To Bring These Fall 2024 Ideas Home
Fall 2024 is all about the marriage of comfort and sophistication - a balance that’s been at the heart of mid-century modern design since the beginning. Here’s how to do it:
Focus on “Foundation Pieces”
Instead of buying seasonal decor that will be stored away in a few months, update your foundation pieces to give you style all year.
A Florence Dining Table can change your dining space and provide year-round functionality. Its clean lines and premium construction make it a piece that’s trend-proof while fitting in with this season’s warmer, more intentional spaces.
Layer Textures, Not Things
Rather than cluttering surfaces with fall decor, layer textures. Your Florence piece can be the sophisticated backdrop for:
Handwoven table runner
Tactile ceramic vessels
Natural wood accessories
Subtle metallic accents
These all add warmth without messing with the clean lines of your mid-century pieces.
Embrace the Negative Space
One of the most underrated aspects of fall decorating is restraint. The beauty of mid-century modern design is in the form and function. Let your Florence Media Console be the focal point by keeping it simple and intentional. This is especially true as we move away from over-decorated seasonal vignettes.
