Peach Cobbler

Benjamin Moore · 2169-40

The Analysis

Peach Cobbler is a saturated, mid-tone orange that brings significant warmth and visual weight to a space. With an LRV of 47.33, it absorbs a fair amount of light, which can make a room feel cozy and intimate rather than large and airy.

Due to its intensity, this shade functions best as a bold statement piece or an accent color. It can easily overwhelm a room if used on all four walls, so it is most effective in smaller spaces like a powder room, or as a deliberate feature wall.

LRV 47

History & Origin

This hue leans into a retro, 1970s-inspired palette. It feels less like a traditional heritage tone and more like a fresh, mid-century modern update that embraces bold, saturated warmth.

How to Use It

Pair this color with matte black hardware to ground the brightness, or use warm walnut wood tones to enhance the organic, retro feel. It works best in kitchens or dining areas where its vibrant personality can set an upbeat tone.

The Mood

This color is undeniably energizing and stimulating. Because of its high warmth, it feels active and social, making it a great choice for areas where you want to encourage conversation rather than quiet relaxation.

Colour harmonies

Complementary

Opposite on the colour wheel — bold, high-contrast pairings. Use for a feature wall or furniture you want to command attention.

Analogous

Neighbouring hues — cohesive and calm, great for layered schemes that feel collected rather than matched.

Split complementary

Near-opposites for strong contrast with a little less tension than a pure complement. A favourite of interior designers.

Triadic

Three evenly spaced hues — balanced, vibrant, and versatile. Keep one dominant and use the others sparingly.

Tetradic (square)

Four hues in a square on the wheel — rich, dynamic palettes. Best when one colour leads and the others accent.

Monochromatic

Dark, mid, and light steps on the same hue — a failsafe gradient for trim, walls, and accents without shifting colour family.
