Written by:

A warming and luminous colour, Apricot Crush provides a cheerful, energising note, set to evoke contentment and promote wellness and refreshment within homes.


In the wake of the fruity hue’s predicted introduction, the interior world has seen a new wash of sun-soaked, mid-orange furnishings and décor designs, as the desire to add colour and personality into living spaces overtakes the need for neutral surroundings.


In this article, I’ll share my picks of mood-boosting products and tips on how to style them, to give your home a much-needed burst of vitamin C goodness!

How to add apricot crush into your home


Full of jubilant connotations, apricot is a fantastic shade for filling your home with colour and character and even the smallest hints of the blissful tone can lift a room instantly.


  • Add apricot accessories like cushions and throws or brighten up pale decor with apricot-coloured artwork
  • A bold block of colour on a feature wall will add a brilliant burst of energy to the room
  • Add a statement piece of furniture like a sofa or armchair for a fantastic, attention-grabbing focal point

What colours go with apricot crush?


As apricot is such a lively and sunny shade, you may be wondering how to work with such a vibrant aesthetic.


Luckily, there are plenty of hues to pair with the colour. Apricot works well with shades from different colour palettes.


Here are a few combinations for working the Apricot trend into your home:


Apricot and neutrals


Apricot works really well with neutrals, like beige, cream and off-white.


Shades on the warmer side, such as beiges and soft browns will add a cosy contrast to the fresher tones in apricot.  

Apricot and green


Known as a new neutral, green is a perfect pairing for apricot thanks to its versatility and plethora of shades.


Couple with a minty hue to match apricot’s refreshing aura or choose a deeper shade, like sage or forest green to add a moody tone and complement with flecks of gold accessories.

Apricot and blue


Blue is a brilliant balance to apricot because you can go as light or dark as you like.


Match apricot’s sunny disposition with a bold shade or go grown up with navy - an ideal opposition for apricot’s lively nature.

Apricot and grey


Forever the contemporary and go-to hue, grey goes with just about everything, including apricot.


If you want to avoid the grey looking a little flat, incorporate some metallic tones with splashes of silver.
