A warm peach color is the result of a mixture of red, yellow and white. Its shade depends on the number and proportions of the mixed colors. Peach is endowed with the positive energy of yellow and red, but lacks their brightness. In interiors where red will be too heavy and piercing yellow, peach will beat the space in the most advantageous way.

Peach emits warm light, so it brings a sense of comfort and tranquility to the space, forming harmony with almost all the tones of the color palette. Depending on its concentration in the room, it can either muffle or emphasize aggressive colors. Whereas in combination with other neutral shades it creates complete peace.
Peach color in the interior is able to change depending on the level and spectral component of lighting. The brighter the daylight, the more pleasant the shade becomes. If the windows of the room face north, then the peach will become muffled, and notes of blue or gray will appear in it.

to contents ↑Traditional combinations
The most neutral and “calm” are combinations in a related gamut. They are nuance compatible and create elegant, calm combinations that will decorate classic interiors.
With brown
These two colors combine nature itself. A brown tree trunk on which rosy fragrant fruits grow - these are the associations that this combination evokes. Therefore, the walls, painted in a light peach color, will best shade the brownish texture of the wooden floor or joinery.
With beige
Beige forms a more relaxed combination. But here it is worth showing some caution, since both colors should still be in some contrast with respect to each other. If one of them is too pale, then the second is desirable to choose a more saturated one.
With white
White is able to refresh the peach, bringing airiness to the room. The room in which white color prevails with peach accents spread out will be most light.
With the color "coffee with milk"
The color “coffee with milk” forms the most traditional combination, which is associated with warmth and homeliness. The most advantageous option is a combination of rich coffee with light beige or pink-peach hues.
With terracotta
Red-brick is perfect for the most neutral tones of peach, giving activity to the interior. The main thing is that there is not too much terracotta, otherwise it will simply drown out the gentle tone.
With green

But the more saturated and darker the gray becomes, the more bright and rich notes it will require from a peach. If the color accents are placed correctly, then this can refresh the room and give it dynamics. In combination with a peach, you should not choose brownish shades for gray, since they can muffle the tenderness and juiciness of a peach.
