An interior trend that is set to stay is blush pink. Dubbed ‘millennial pink’ in early 2017, this soft yet warm shade has well and truly taken over interior styling. Perfect throughout a number of rooms in the home, you can either subtly introduce the shade, or be bold and make a real statement with stylish blush pink.
Read on to find out how to introduce the colour of the season into your home now…
The Shade…
The wonderful thing about blush pink is that it is timeless, yet so on trend right now, meaning if you choose to add this pretty shade to your home it won’t date quickly like many other trends do. It’s beautifully warm yet soft and contemporary, working perfectly to add a homely and stylish touch to any room. When styled correctly, it’s not too girly either – it’s all about balancing out the pink tones with contrasting design.
Bold Styling…
If you’re a big fan of this colour and you want to introduce it to your home in a bold way there are a few ways in which you can do this. Blush pink works brilliantly in most rooms, but due to its soft and relaxing vibe it’s particularly good for bedrooms and living rooms.
Consider adding a feature wall that sits either behind your stylish sofa in your lounge or the bed in a bedroom. Balance out the pink with greys and industrial touching. Try a grey leather sofa or a leather sofa bed in the lounge, or a grey headboard on the bed. Industrial features such as lighting and furniture will help ‘de-pretty’ this look so that it’s not overly feminine.
Subtle Touches…
If you’re keen on this trend but you don’t want to go over kill on it try adding just a few simple splashes of blush pink in your home. A great place to introduce the colour is in your lounge or kitchen. Try adding shelving to your kitchen to house your stylish kitchen ware, introducing blush pink through mugs, dinnerware sets and glasses. Or try updating your soft furnishings in your living room, choosing geometric white and blush pink prints for curtains or rugs and cushions.
Top tip: a grey leather corner soft looks wonderful with contrasting white and blush pink printed cushions, try adding a throw too to pull the look together.
