Modern Mediterranean
Peach is a color that sometimes gets a
negative reaction. But San Francisco
designer Patrice Bevans sees a different side
of it— one that’s fresh, flexible, and worthy
of launching a palette. “ There’s a lot of
energy behind this peach,” Patrice says.
“ It’s a warm , red-based shade that’s more
terra-cotta than pale.” Espresso is the game-
changer, adding a dark accent that— along
w ith aqua— gives the palette a modern edge.
