Kare Design: Colour Trend – Life is Peachy
Live on the edge and learn to decorate in trendy colours. Peach is a season favourite with a fun, vibrant and warm tone to add to any space. Pantone’s Colour of the Year isn’t quite pink and it isn’t quite orange. “Peach Fuzz” hits the sweet spot between the two tones, evoking a sense of peacefulness, warmth and comfort. Here are a few tips to help you decorate with this fun colour and keep it peachy at home with Kare Design.
1. Embrace Soft Furnishings:
Peach is a gentle hue that pairs beautifully with a variety of colours and materials, making it ideal for soft furnishings such as throw pillows, blankets, and curtains. Opt for peach-toned cushions to add a pop of colour to your sofa or bed, or drape peach curtains to infuse your space with a soft, ethereal glow. Mixing and matching different textures like velvet, linen, or cotton can add depth and dimension to your decor while maintaining a cohesive look.
2. Statement Pieces:
Make a bold statement with peach-coloured furniture or accent pieces. A peach-coloured armchair or ottoman can serve as a focal point in a neutral-toned room, adding a touch of sophistication and visual interest. Alternatively, consider incorporating a peach-coloured rug or artwork to anchor the space and tie the design elements together. Just remember to balance the peach tones with complementary colours.
3. Fresh Florals and Greenery:
Incorporating fresh flowers and greenery is an easy and cost-effective way to introduce peach accents into your home decor. Arrange a bouquet of peach-coloured roses or peonies in a vase to add a natural pop of colour to your living room or dining area. Alternatively, place potted plants with peach-toned foliage, such as peach begonias or caladiums, on shelves or windowsills to infuse your space with a refreshing and vibrant energy.
4. Decorative Accents:
Accessorize your space with peach-coloured decorative accents to tie the design together. From vases and candles to picture frames and decorative trays, there are countless ways to incorporate peach into your decor through small, thoughtful details. Mix and match different shades of peach with metallic accents like gold or brass for a touch of glamour and sophistication.
5. Balance with Neutrals:
While peach accents can add warmth and vibrancy to your home decor, balancing them with neutral tones is essential to prevent the space from feeling overwhelming. Pair peach accents with crisp whites, soft greys, or warm beige tones to create a sense of harmony and balance. This will allow the peach hues to stand out while creating a serene and inviting atmosphere.
