Fancy a pop of pink in your living room? Light or dark, pink is an uplifting colour that deserves so much more than to be just used in bedrooms and nurseries. Keep reading for my insight on using pink to give your living spaces a rosy-glow.

Pink is an extremely versatile colour that’s capable of achieving so many different looks and atmospheres in the home.
Thanks to its spectacular spectrum of shades, from delicate blush to hot fuchsia, pink can be used as a neutral or bold style statement.
Don’t worry, you don’t have to turn your home into Barbie’s Dreamhouse (unless you want to!) to partake in the trend. There are lots of ways you can bring some pretty hues into your home without going all out. Add a splash of the sweet shade into your room with some seating, a pink feature wall, furnishings or wall art.
Read on as I explore the pink rage and share my pick of products in the playful shade.
Pink has always been a staple colour, but it’s really making its design mark right now.
The release of the latest Barbie film has seen the rise of the vibrant Barbiecore trend, which is a key feature of many a TikTok feed.
Meanwhile, the fashion world is awash with pink, with Valentino’s Fall 22 primarily featuring pink.
The Barbiecore trend is anything that pays homage to the bright world of Barbie. In particular, Barbie’s staple hot pink look, but with a chic edge.
Fun and feminine, Barbiecore encapsulates the playfulness and frivolity associated with the world’s most famous doll, giving fans a boost of nostalgia and an opportunity to immerse into the bubblegum pink-clad world.
The trend is all about taking risks and being confident with your colour choice; pinks, purples, corals – the brighter and more colourful, the better.
Absolutely!
The beauty of pink is that you can push the boundaries, embrace its brightness and enhance the look with key furniture pieces, such as a pink sofa, pink armchair or a pink footstool.
Putting a pink sofa in your living room will instantly lift the room and give it a youthful look. Turn up the impact with a brighter shade or add a subtle design feature with romantic, pastel pinks.
A pink sofa doesn’t have to dominate your room. It can be styled in many ways and paired with muted shades for a sophisticated and calming look.
Due to its diverse range of shades, I believe pink works well alongside so many different colours, especially greens, blues and earthy tones, like taupe, and beige.
It also works wonderfully with crisp white and cream too, especially if the sofa is on the brighter side, as the cream and white helps tone it down and balances it out.
Metallic shades and finishes, both gold and silver, work really well with pink too and add glamourous and grown-up element.
The most effective way of bringing them into your design scheme is via picture frames, chair and table legs, ornaments, light fittings and curtain tie backs.
Some of the most popular pink colour combinations I've spotted are:
It depends on the overall look you’re going for. If you want your room to be all about colour, I'd suggest dressing your sofa with vibrantly-coloured and patterned cushions in bright shades, such as teal, emerald green, gold or mustard.
But if you want more of a muted look, then opt for neutral-coloured cushions and a cream throw, perhaps.
A bold sofa can easily be toned down by dressing it with cushions and/or throws that are neutral in both colour and design. Calm colours like cream, white and beige will bring a softness to a bright sofa and add an interesting contrast.
You can always add an extra layer of design detail through texture. For instance, a chenille or sheepskin throw and velvety cushions.
White and silver or white and gold always set off blush pink perfectly.
At the same time, richer colours, such as navy blues and forest greens are capable of looking just as stunning. It all depends on if you want a dramatic and colourful look or more of a more subdued effect.
