Darling and delicate, muted, sorbet-like or bubblegum, pink is the colour we love to put on display.
Perhaps it’s the soft and calming palette that works so well with interiors, alongside the positive feelings, girly glamour and flair that blush pink brings to a room – not to mention the playfulness that sets it apart.
From soft furnishings to statement decos, here’s how to shape those pastel pigments to your personal style…
