Peach Paint Colours

Peach used to be an interior design favourite. Sadly, this classic colour family has fallen out of favour over the past few decades. However, there are many reasons to rethink your option of this surprisingly versatile colour palette. 

Soft peach shades are subtle enough that they can be used liberally when painting your interiors. However, even a couple of coats of peach matt emulsion paint will transform the most lifeless of rooms. 

You won’t struggle for inspiration when it comes to colour pairings. Peaches and cream are perfect partners. As well as being a mouthwatering flavour combo, these two hues work wonderfully when used on walls. However, there’s plenty of fun to be had with more daring colour combinations.

What Makes Peach Paint Colours Appealing?

Peach paint colours get a bad rap as being old-fashioned. However, these timeless shades are some of the most useful for transforming unloved interiors. Some peach hues pack a pinkish pigment, while others are enriched with vibrant yellow undertones. While there’s a lot of variety here, just about every peach paint colour will turn up the temperature in an interior. 

If you’re looking for creamy emulsion paint colours that can be used in place of neutrals, peach tones are the obvious choice. A pared-back peach can be used in almost any room, while that smooth, flat finish will leave your space feeling bright and open. But unlike off-whites, peach paint colours won’t need to rely on fiery accent colours to bring warmth to your decor schemes. 

You’ll also save yourself plenty of hassle when it comes to selecting stylish colour combinations. Peach shades have an innate vibrancy which plays well with more dramatic complementary colours. You can liven up a peach-infused room by painting an entire wall in intense green or make an impact with monochromes like black and white. 

Our Five Favourite Peach Paint Colours

Is this your first time considering peach paint colours for a decorating project? Below are just a few of the peach shades you’ll find in our range. 

A light peach paint colour will brighten up any room. If you’re looking for a vibrant shade to give your favourite spaces an instant lift, try Chickpea G311. Along with a hint of punchy pink, this shade is lifted by its yellow undertones. It’s the perfect example of why you should be using this colour family if you’re not already. 

Thanks to that peachy pigment, you can coordinate this neutral paint colour with pink or gentle orange hues. Alternatively, use those yellow undertones as your inspiration. Use a sunny shade as an accent colour if you’re using a peach palette to breathe new life into your interiors. For a more modern look, stick to warm greys or pink-infused neutrals.  

If you’re searching for a more subtle peach paint colour, it’s worth taking another look at Bast G405. Soft and delicate, this eye-pleasing peach will work wonderfully in almost any space. It’s on the lighter side, but this means you can use it freely, even in a small space. 

The perfect choice of all-wall colour, you can use this easy-going hue to decorate bedrooms, living spaces and dining rooms alike. If you’re decorating a larger space and still think your room is lacking warmth, combine it with a more intense hue. An earthy red or blood orange will work nicely alongside this pared-back peach. Use those more vibrant shades to draw attention to architectural details or accent feature walls.

Magnolia H320

A coat or two of playful peach will have you rethinking the way you use your favourite spaces. With its delicate balance of pink and orange, Magnolia H320 is a stunning take on peach that can be put to use in most rooms. 

Thanks to its warm undertones, this paint colour works particularly well in dining rooms and living spaces. You can use it on its own, or add more dynamic shades like coral pink to your palette. If you want to keep things simple, try using a pastel orange alongside this peach for a low-key tonal interior.

Are you looking for a colour scheme with timeless appeal? You don’t have to stick with the usual neutrals. Instead, use a pastel-inspired peach like Tvt F326. There are muted notes of pink here, although it’s a fairly laid-back colour that can be effortlessly coordinated with cooler tones. 

Use barely-there blushes and reined-in rose to accentuate the peachiness of this paint colour. Alternatively, stick to off-whites and warm grey if you’re aiming for a more contemporary finish.

Are you someone who usually whitewashes their walls when decorating?  While this will deliver that instant refresh you’re looking for, you’ll be left with an uninspired interior lacking any real depth. Think about using a peachy white like Tvt F333 instead of your usual emulsion paint. 

Thanks to its backbone of pure white, this paint colour is light enough that you can use it in any room. However, a delicate note of peach will bring low-level warmth to your walls. When selecting accent colours, go for subtle pinks or comforting creams. 

What Colours Go With Peach Walls

While peach paint colours can work beautifully on their own, they also work well as part of a colour scheme. If you are currently working out ways to work this shade into a colour scheme you will want to play with deep neutrals such as Sandstone X463, earthy tones like Amulet K481, or darker shades of blue like Petrol S491.
