Even more so than January, autumn—time of new notebooks and wardrobe sort-outs—often feels like the right time to start afresh. In the UK, paint manufacturers have tapped into this urge with a spectrum of new colors that reflect the palette appearing outside our windows. Below, we share some of the new shades that have caught our eye.

Hopper Head from Farrow & Ball: “Sitting between Railings and Down Pipe, this color is inspired by the iron containers used to catch rainwater at the top of a down pipe.”

The Tobacconist from Coat x Laura Jackson: “An effortlessly stylish, addictive deep green with a warming yellowness.”

Mchanga from Paint & Paper Library, “a red-earth shade found in the river sands of Tanzania.”

Hickory from Rose Uniacke, “an intense, true earthy brown.”

And Moor, “a deep mossy green, warm and calming.”
