YOU REALLY have to go to Holly to get there.

It is unincorporated and way out of the way; the place where the road ends, hunkered down beachside behind brambles along Hood Canal in the southwestern corner of Kitsap County. Even Wikipedia will tell you that Holly is known for its isolation.

But thats also what makes it so very special.

Its inspiring for me to be at Holly, says Paige Stockley. Its important for me to be at Holly.

Paige looked at a weedy, soggy beachside lot whose only features were a choked-near-to-death creek and a Breaking Bad-type double-wide. Her sister saw the place and called it grisly.

Paige saw home.

This is real, she says. This is not about making a fire by flipping a switch.

Paige and Holly. Quite the pair. Forces of nature, the both of them. Theyve been friends all of Paiges life. Her grandfather had a place across the cove. Her mom and dad, Peggy and Tom Stockley, brought Paige and her sister to Holly since they were babies.

The girls parents, though, are gone now two of 88 people killed Jan. 31, 2000, when Alaska Flight 261 crashed off California on the way back from Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. (Tom Stockley was the wine writer and assistant editor of this magazine.) But when Paige is here, they are with her.

Just as wardrobes change with the season, so should a homes style. Spring and summer are for whimsical, decor, says Wesley Thompson, an Annapolis interior designer, whereas theres something about the fall and winter months thats more sophisticated and rich feeling, as a reflection of the hibernating, nesting instinct.

So squirrel away the linen and jute. Pull out the wool, velvet, faux fur and cashmere. These luxurious materials in drapes, rugs, throws and more will make a home look warm and elegant.

Pairing fall foliage with luxe decorative objects in warm-colored metals is one way to achieve this sophistication. Ambient candlelights another. Vanessa Holden, West Elms creative director, especially likes tone-on-tone vignettes that layer contrast, texture and materials rather than shout for attention with bright colors. The aim is for a more polished and elevated look, she says. Its a reaction to the casualness of summer.

Stools with Mongolian wool or faux-fur tops offer perfect respites for cold feet. At a fraction of the price of higher-end stools, the Nate Berkus Faux Fur Stool can add the fluffy feel of luxury to a living room, sitting room or bedroom ($55, http://www.target.com).

Candles are fall standbys for good reason: They cast a glow that warms one inside and out. Their scent is important, too, Thompson says. Scents such as French oak can often bring about feelings of cozying up to a fire, she says. Try the Ringo Candleholder and Vase in a centerpiece or on a mantel, with a pillar candle ($96, http://www.blisshomeanddesign.com).

Thompson likes the tassels on this dark orange leaf-colored Temple Bells Throw ($128, http://www.anthropologie.com). Fold throws such as this one on the back of a sofa, pile them in baskets, or spread them out on a bed. I love to drip a throw down the side of a sofa, says D.C. designer Patrick J. Baglino Jr.

Its time to put away spring and summers brights and neons. Fall and winter call for texture and shape rather than color and contrast, Holden says. The cream-on-white Tassel Trace Pillow is all about neutral, touchable texture ($58, http://www.anthropologie.com).

Holden says that metallics convey a rich sense of luxury during the fall and winter months, whether rich burnished gold, patinaed mirror or copper. And a trio of gold Prism Vases is just the type of pretty, warm thing that Thompson likes to put on a table around the holidays ($16-$28, http://www.jaysonhome.com).
