Giving your home a new season refresh? This new curated palette is inspired by the rich beauty and gentle shades of Ireland’s native woodlands, and invokes a sense of solace and relaxation like no other.

As the evenings lengthen and we inevitably spend more time tucked up within the walls of our homes, comfort and cosiness become top priorities. If you want your space to reflect the world beyond the window, Colourtrend’s new capsule collection, Wonders of the Woodlands, may well pique your interest.

Launching this month, Wonders of the Woodlands is a curated palette of eight new paint colours inspired by the rich beauty and gentle shades of Ireland’s native woodlands. Designed to transform living spaces into sanctuaries, this collection balances contemporary elegance with timeless charm.

autumn paint colours

Rooted deeply in the Irish landscape, each colour evokes a closeness to nature, inviting warmth into our homes and reflecting the quiet interplay of light, shadow and organic textures found beneath the woodland canopy.

Each colour has been thoughtfully considered by Colourtrend’s in-house experts to bring a touch of the outdoors in, offering Irish-made quality in every drop. These colours are available in 100ml tester pots and one-litre, three-litre, five-litre and 10-litre tins. This collection upholds Colourtrend’s promise of ‘Any Colour. Every finish’, so you can choose the sheen level that suits your living space.

Let’s get to know the colours a little better…

Faerie Moss

Inspired by the velvety plant that blankets much of Ireland’s natural wonders, Faerie Moss is a soft green, with olive undertones, that captures the essence of nature’s gentle cover. It creates a calming energy in any space, wrapping interiors in the magic, tranquillity and softness of woodland floors.

Golden Gleam

A warm yellow with gold undertones, Golden Gleam expresses the rare moments of sunlight breaking through a leafy canopy. This shade embodies the muted glow that illuminates wooded areas and the honey tones of leaves catching the light. The warm tones infuse a space with positive, comforting energy reminiscent of dappled sunshine.

Rua Dusk

Rua Dusk captures the dusky pink and earthy brown tones found along wild woodland trails at an adventurous day’s end. With its warm and grounding presence, it softens interiors while reflecting the quiet embrace of woodland evenings.

Brittle Bark

This shade draws influence from the textured outer layers of Ireland’s majestic trees throughout the woodlands. This deep brown with green undertones possesses an ambience that mirrors nature’s quiet moments. Like ancient tree roots emerging from the woodland floor, it brings a feeling of strength and grounding to a home, enveloping rooms in a natural beauty.

Misty Fog

An airy neutral shade with gentle ivory undertones, inspired by the delicate mists that rise over woodlands at dawn, Misty Fog captures the calming essence of the early morning fog. It brings a soft serenity and fresh calmness to any interior, perfect for creating restful, peaceful spaces.

Whispering Hollow

Whispering Hollow reflects the stones and pebbles scattered through Ireland’s woodlands that have stood the test of time. A neutral warm taupe with red and brown undertones, it creates soothing, yet strong interiors marked by a natural elegance.

Forest Floor

Forest Floor emulates the hues of rich earth and fallen leaves found on woodland floors. This balanced green with subtle grey and black undertones represents the duality of strength and fragility that woodlands possess.

River Spell

This shade channels the deep blue of woodland rivers and violet undertones of mystical lakes. Its enriching, shadowy tone adds an elegant and sophisticated depth to any room, reflecting the stillness and magic of water flowing through the forest.

Wonders of the Woodlands will be available in over 200 Colourtrend stockists throughout Ireland and the seven Cove & Co. paint studios. For more information, visit www.colourtrend.ie
