Quiet Peace, Kitchen

With a subdued and calming character, Quiet Peace invokes feelings of serenity and harmony when homeowners need a space to breathe, focus on the simple things in life, and be present. Quiet Peace is a rich and enveloping color and is ideal for creating a serene atmosphere in living rooms, bedrooms, dining rooms, and other interior spaces where peace is a priority. Simultaneously, Quiet Peace can be personal and expressive, especially when paired with complementary colors, making a versatile choice for any type of space.

“Consumers today are looking for connection, optimism, balance, humanity and joy in a world that can feel increasingly overstimulating and uncertain,” said Dani Doerge, marketing manager, California Paints. “Quiet Peace delivers on that need, offering serenity with a touch of the bold to help homeowners turn their spaces into a true retreat from the everyday.”

As always, California Paints 2027 Color of the Year is complemented by a thoughtfully curated palette of coordinating colors that aim to create a rich and enveloping effect. Soft browns, beiges and greens can be paired to invoke a return to nature, while brighter options like eye-grabbing yellows and dusty pinks can create a personalized and expressive retreat.

“We chose Quiet Peace as the 2027 Color of the Year because it reflects where consumers are in today’s environment,” Doerge said. “It’s the perfect color for a moment where blues are emerging across interiors, fashion, and other design trends. It delivers the mood consumers are looking for in their personal spaces, while remaining versatile enough to offer true personalization with a range of complementary colors.”
