Peach Fuzz: 3 Easy Ways to Refresh Your Living Spaces with Pantone’s Color of the Year 2024

Peach Fuzz: 3 Easy Ways to Refresh Your Living Spaces with Pantone’s Color of the Year 2024

When shoppers bring up décor trends they’re considering for their home, they’ll occasionally ask us about what colors are hot. No, not literally hot colors like reds and yellows. They want to know what’s popular in the décor and design space. Well, it depends somewhat on who you ask, but if you want to know what hues are currently on-trend, a good place to start is with one of the world’s foremost authorities on color authentication – PANTONE.

Did you know that this year officially marks the 25th anniversary of PANTONE’s color of the year program? Every winter, PANTONE announces a color that they feel embodies the mood, vibe, or atmosphere of the coming year. In turn, this choice often influences color trends ranging from high fashion runways in Europe to the paint colors at your local paint and hardware store. 

So, what is the PANTONE color for 2024? And what are a few ways you can boldly (or subtly) feature it in your home? Let’s find out together!

What Is the PANTONE Color for 2024? Meet Peach Fuzz.

PANTONE’s color of the year for 2024 is an inviting, warm peach-colored hue, called Peach Fuzz. Situated midway between pink and orange, 13-1023 Peach Fuzz is a soft, pastel color that is light and airy, refreshing and inspirational. 

According to PANTONE, they chose this color for a couple reasons. First, they wanted a relaxed, calming hue perfect for those introspective moments alone. However, they also wanted 2024’s color of the year to highlight the compassion and warmth of human connection with others. We think Peach Fuzz does both marvelously. When utilizing Peach Fuzz or similar hues in your home, you’re creating a space that is both welcoming to guests and perfect for your own personal oasis.

3 Ways to Bring PANTONE 13-1023 Peach Fuzz Into Your Home in 2024

For most shoppers, hues like Peach Fuzz are best suited as accent colors. However, the degree to which you feature such accent colors is entirely up to you. When it comes to bringing well-placed accents into your home – whether Peach Fuzz or any other accent color – there are three easy ways to do it:

1) Accent with Accessories

Accessories are the easiest, most straightforward, and typically, most affordable way to introduce accents into your living space. Additionally, this approach allows you the flexibility to add as much (or as little) of your accent color as you want. 

Want just a little splash of Peach Fuzz to make your room pop? Add a few small tabletop accessories, decorative flower arrangements, or even a bowl of artificial peaches to your table’s centerpiece. Want a bit more color? Think a bit bigger with peach-colored accent pillows or throw blankets for your upholstered seating, or with larger accessories like table lamps, vases, or flower pots for your hard surfaces.

2) Set the Scene with Your Walls & Floors

For the more ambitious refurnishers and redecorators, you have the option to use your accent color (in this case, Peach Fuzz) to frame the entire room. Depending on the rest of your home’s décor, Peach Fuzz may be a solid color candidate to paint an accent wall. However, for a lot less work, you can find an area rug, painting, or other wall art that incorporates Peach Fuzz or features a similar color palette.

3) Don’t Forget Your Furniture & Fabrics

Lastly, if you want Peach Fuzz even more prominently featured in your space, including some peach-colored hues in your furniture may be a good choice. This is most often done with upholstery since there are typically far more color options when it comes to items like sectionals, sofas, loveseats or accent chairs. 

For those interested in going this route, we strongly recommend you check out our very own Design Center, which is home to thousands of custom upholstery fabrics. If you’ve never considered custom order upholstery before, this may be your perfect opportunity to find that perfect peach tone you’ve been looking for!
