Ways to Integrate Pink Into The Home
The colour pink has had a huge resurgence in recent years, but why? For starters, it’s a shade that exudes a subtle, nostalgic and modern appeal. It’s feminine but also gender-neutral, and in particular it’s incredibly easy to incorporate into the home. From statement walls to key furniture pieces, take a little peek at all the ideas we’ve pulled together on ways to integrate this plush colour into the home.
Start Small
If you’re just starting out with your pink renovation, you can begin your journey by incorporating just a touch of pink here and there. Think about all the small details; if you’re updating the living room you can scatter some accent cushions across your sofas or bring in rose gold lamps for a subtle approach.
In the kitchen you can keep it minimal and simply add in pink tableware accessories or small appliances such as a coral kettle for that eye-popping hint of colour. The reason why starting small is a good idea is because accessories are far less of a commitment than say paint, so if you fancy a change of tune, these little touches can be ever-so-easily changed.

Paint or Wallpaper The Walls
When it comes to your walls, it’s all about choosing the right tone for your interior space. Being a very bold colour choice, you will want to make sure that you are coordinating it cleverly with your furniture and surroundings. You don’t necessarily have to go for a bright pink; a dusky hue will liven up the walls whilst keeping it understated. You can then layer up with some soft fabrics and cushions, this will allow you to completely embrace the pink look without going overboard.

On the other hand, if you enjoy a more lively look, there is a wide choice of wallpaper and paint brands that offer an expansive range of beautiful blush shades. We are loving Lick’s Pink 05, reminiscent of the warm haze of the summer sky at sunset, this soft hue serves up sunny undertones and energising overtones, creating a totally harmonious aesthetic.

If you’re looking to adorn your walls with quirky wallpaper, the funky motifs found across MissPrint’s coral pink Denver design is the perfect choice for the more eccentric interior designer. This lively wallpaper can be used as a feature wall and as a focal point in the room. You can then offset it with mid-century wooden furniture and cool ceramics for a contemporary twist.
Upgrade your Furniture
If you’ve decided to take the leap and introduce a statement piece of furniture into your home, then pink is a great choice! From a design point of view, there are many directions you can go in to create a dreamy look.
You could style your living space around a statement pink sofa, whether that be a contemporary or classic style, it’s a great choice. You can then choose scatter cushions in a different colour to make it pop and stand out.

In the dining room you can embrace this shade by bringing in luxuriously upholstered pink chairs with a beautiful warm wood, country-style dining table. When it comes to the bedroom, a statement bedframe will form a stunningly romantic retreat. The Button & Sprung Dahlia bedframe seen here in the Mallow Pure Wool fabric offers a gentle curve whilst bringing a touch of blush beauty to the bedroom.
Finish with Flowers
Now for the pink pièce de résistance… flowers! Floral displays will transform your space with that blossoming finishing touch. Arranging a bunch of fresh flowers – pale pink tulips or peonies - are a great way to transform an otherwise neutral space. Fox Flowers, Flowerbx and Bloom Post UK all offer pretty bouquets that will add that refreshing finish to the space.
