ink is a fun and playful colour to incorporate into your home. It comes in a wide variety of hues and depending on your personal preferences, can present itself in a multitude of incarnations. No two pinks are the same and we love it for its ability to be sophisticated and yet not overly serious, energising as well as calming. Twenty-first-century pink is a serious contender when decorating your home. P

Pink is no longer seen as a feminine colour, as long as it’s used as an accent colour, rather than a theme. Pink is said to have a calming effect and tones in well with the current floral trends, as well as browns and greys. Dusty pinks can be used as a neutral, which makes pink items suitable for any room. – Casarredo

Soft, non-threatening with a hundred different shades and counting, pink presents itself in nature as a spiritual colour, a colour of love, new beginnings and spring, inheriting its name from the flower called pink, or as we now know it, Dianthus. The positive, happy energy of pink has gained popularity in the décor and fashion world and is here to stay. Wonderfully easy to use, shades are being developed by designers and paint companies every year, making it the go-to colour for backdrops and accents. Its message of abundance, peace and friendship is welcome in any home or office. Key furniture pieces, throws and wallpapers are also a great way to introduce pink into the room, balancing it with deep blues, greys and greens, which give pink strength and class. – Here & Elsewhere

The use of pink in décor has become almost as common as the LBD in fashion. It’s a staple. And pink in wallpaper is no different. Whether it is a fully pink-inspired wallpaper or one with just hints of the hue, so many designs incorporate the colour. Use it to bring life into a dark space such as a guest loo or combine it with metallics for a sophisticated and contemporary look. From baby to cerise, pink is here to stay in interiors. – Cara Saven Collective Sigh from Botanical range, Cara Saven Collective Sigh from Botanical range, Cara Saven

Using pink home décor doesn’t automatically define a space as “girly”; your home can successfully and effortlessly display unique pink décor by incorporating a throw here, a pillow there or even a bold sofa as a statement piece.

Pink accents instantly brighten up a mood. There are so many lovely variations of pink, from terracotta to coral, which combined with a neutral décor scheme looks fresh and inviting.
