Pantone has announced ‘Peach Fuzz’ as its 2024 Colour of the Year and to help inspire DIYers, James Mellan-Matulewicz, Creative Director at wallpaper brand Bobbi Beck, has curated his favourite peach-toned designs from their collection. He has also provided some top tips on how to use them in your space.
Speaking on the colour, James said: “Sometimes Pantone’s Colour of the Year doesn’t lend itself to styling in the home because the tones can be tricky to incorporate, especially when highly saturated. These types of colours can easily end up garish.
“However, 2024’s choice of ‘Peach Fuzz’ is a colour that should be much easier to experiment with, given it is essentially a nude. It can work well as a supporting colour or, given the right pattern, can help create a statement in the home.”
Cameron – from £75 ($121) per roll.
James said: “Our Cameron design is on the pinky side of peach, but has strong undertones of beige, making it work well with colours across the pink-beige spectrum. It’s inspired by Art Deco patterns but with a modern and alternative colour palette for a fun twist. The Art Deco style makes it work well with luxury finishes like golds and rose golds.”

Ingo – from £32 per sq metre ($5.58 per sq ft).
“Our Ingo mural has an ombre effect, starting out with peach at the bottom, rising to yellow at the top. It’s subtle enough to make for an interesting backdrop, without overwhelming the space. It has a very detailed scratch-effect finish when viewed from close up, which helps add some texture to the scheme.”

Candy – from £75 ($121) per roll.
“Candy is a fun and vibrant pattern with a variety of peach tones. The design offers a retro feel but in a modern, paired-back palette. Its graphic style shows that the peach tones don’t have to be subtle and can be used as the main feature of the space, if incorporated in the right way.”
