How I Styled a Cozy Living Room for Fall
If mustard yellow is your favorite shade of fall, this moodboard is just for you!
Among all the typical fall tones, I chose a rich, warm mustard yellow for this design. Every piece in this moodboard was thoughtfully picked, so you can shop with confidence and create a timeless living room look.
The Thoughts Behind the Look
The mustard yellow sofa brings that perfect pop of color and instantly became the focal point for this setup. I chose one with a bench cushion—such a designer detail that elevates the whole look. To balance the boldness, I brought in neutral swivel chairs that feel soft and cohesive without competing.
The striped ottoman adds functional extra seating, and its low-profile design introduces just the right visual contrast. I anchored the entire space with a large area rug in an earthy color palette that seamlessly pulls all the pieces together.
To ground everything, I went with an all-black coffee table—it pairs beautifully with the black frames in the gallery wall above the sofa, creating balance and symmetry. And can we talk about that floor lamp? It’s a rustic stunner with the most beautiful curved details and a jute shade that adds so much warmth—exactly what fall calls for.
