Mostly A's: Dark Academia

You love channeling the classics and giving them a bit of a gothic twist.

You can pull this look together with cozy seating, rich velvety textiles, and flickering candles.

Mostly B's: Rustic Warmth

If you answered mostly B's, your fall aesthetic emanates warmth and balances rugged finishes with lived-in appeal. You embrace the beauty of natural wood finishes, supple leather upholstery, and wool throw blankets. The key to perfecting this style is layering rustic textures with plenty of soft textiles, pairing earth-inspired neutrals with nearly neutrals, and appreciating the wear that comes with season-after-season use.

Mostly C's: Cozy Farmhouse

You're drawn to pieces that feel practical and inviting. Cozy farmhouse aesthetics focus on bright, breezy spaces warmed up with plush textiles to counter the cooler weather. You love to top the sofa with plenty of textured throw pillows and soft blankets, line the dining table with simple-yet-stylish decor, and spice up your soothing neutral palette with pops of autumnal orange.

Mostly D's: Moody Modern

You find comfort in clean lines, streamlined silhouettes, and elevated colors. You might eschew traditional fall hues for more muted, moodier tones and soften sleek materials with cozy fall textures. Find chic ways to drum up the seasonal spirit like filling a sculptural vase with feathery pampas grass or breaking out a weathered wood tray for serving your favorite snacks.
