Pairing Peach Tones with Flooring

Selecting the right flooring to complement peach's soft summer palette is crucial for achieving a harmonious look. To understand what shades complement each other, just look at basic colour theory. Complementary colours are directly opposite one another on the colour wheel, so for instance, a cool-toned blue would pair nicely with a cozy deep brown hardwood floor.

Here are a few ideas for how to pair Pantone Peach Fuzz with flooring:

• Light Wood Floors: Light, natural wood tones create a soft and seamless transition when paired with a peach accent colour in walls or furniture. The combination evokes a sense of airy spaciousness, perfect for living rooms or bedrooms.

• Neutral Carpeting: Opt for neutral carpets in shades of beige or cream to balance the vibrancy of the peach colour palette. This pairing adds a cozy, inviting feel to any room.

• Tile Options: For rooms that need a little extra protection against moisture (i.e. your laundry room or entryway), consider using natural stone or ceramic tiles in neutral or complementary shades of peach. The result is a sophisticated yet welcoming aesthetic.

Decorating with Peach Fuzz opens up a world of creative possibilities. Here's how to make the most of this enchanting colour:

• Accent Walls: Paint an accent wall in Peach Fuzz to create a focal point in any room. This approach works particularly well in living rooms and bedrooms, providing a pop of colour without overwhelming the space.

• Furniture and Upholstery: Introduce Peach Fuzz through furniture and upholstery. A peach-coloured sofa or armchair can serve as a stunning centerpiece, while Peach Fuzz throw pillows add a subtle touch of elegance.

• Artwork and Accessories: Incorporate Peach Fuzz through artwork, vases, and other decorative accessories. These small touches can tie the room together and create a cohesive look.

Peach-Coloured Tile Backsplashes

One of the most impactful ways to use Peach Fuzz in your home is through tile backsplashes. This technique not only adds colour but also texture and personality to your kitchens and bathrooms.

For example, a peach-toned tile backsplash can brighten up your kitchen and complement both modern and traditional designs. Pair it with white or grey cabinetry for a fresh, clean look.

In the bathroom, Peach Fuzz can create a serene, spa-like atmosphere through wall tiles, shower tiles, and sink backsplashes. Combine this colour with white fixtures and natural materials for a luxurious yet tranquil space.
