11/21/2020 Read in 5 minutes. In interior design today, pink is becoming an increasingly popular shade. Going beyond the scope of a child's room for a girl and a married bedroom with a boudoir, it appears in the design of the kitchen, on upholstered furniture, wallpaper and curtains, as well as in bathroom interiors. Let's look at this using examples from the portfolio of the Fundament Group of Companies.
Features of interior design in pink tones
Pink color has a calming effect. However, an overabundance of this shade in the interior can be a serious mistake. There are no uniform canons for decorating rooms in pink tones, but some features of using this color should be taken into account:
- light pink tones can visually expand the room;
- Furniture in a series of dark tones looks good against the background of pink wallpaper;
- to avoid the dollhouse effect, you should use at least three non-conflicting colors in the interior, but incontinence can ruin the charm of the design idea;
- the rich palette of pink shades contains warm and cold tones;
- by choosing wallpaper in soft pink shades, you can safely play with bright accents when choosing furniture;
- if the room has low ceilings, zoning with additional wallpaper will add height to the space, and the main wall, decorated with pink wallpaper, will add light and grace to the room.
Pink wallpaper on the wall: pros and cons
Pink pastel or bright wallpapers have many advantages. These include the following:
- This range perfectly complements any interior. A modern room in this color scheme looks very stylish.
- This color is considered quite calm, because it has a good effect on the human psyche. The shade helps you relax and tune in to a creative wave.
- The shade is perfect for children. It reminds them of fairy-tale characters.
This range has certain disadvantages:
- This wall design is considered feminine. Therefore, many men refuse to use this tone in the interior.
- This tone does not always harmonize with the rich range. This is why it is so important to be careful when combining different shades.
It should be understood that pink is no longer considered a purely “girly” color. Today it can be used in the design of any premises.
Correct selection of wallpaper material
When choosing, you should pay attention not only to the design, but also to the material.
The stores offer wallpaper made from different materials. The choice depends on the room.
For bedrooms, you should choose canvases made of thin material that allows fresh air to pass through, keeping the room cool.
Coatings made from environmentally friendly materials with a water-repellent spray are suitable for children and kitchens.
Thick patterned wallpaper is a good choice for decorating living rooms and offices.
Each type of wallpaper has its own advantages:
- non-woven - does not change shape when moistened and dried, has a slight noise-reducing effect, hides defects and unevenness on the walls;
- vinyl - are not afraid of mechanical stress, do not burn, are easy to wash, as they do not absorb dirt;
- paper ones are the cheapest option, but they are respectful of the environment and allow air to pass through perfectly.

Usually people associate pink with ice cream from childhood, or with something frivolous and weightless. Therefore, this color is good to use to create an atmosphere of relaxation and relaxation.

Pink wallpaper is a fashionable solution that goes well with any design. To achieve an ideal result, it is important to think through everything to the smallest detail.
In the interior of the living room
The living room is a place for receiving guests. A room where you can be with friends and family. What will it look like if you use pink wallpaper to decorate the walls?
In the interior of the living room, you can use an accent technique, in this case all shades are used, including bright and burgundy:
You can also use wallpaper with large flowers as an accent. This design looks elegant and is a great way to brighten up a boring interior and distract attention from less successful shades:
The living room in soft pastel colors looks cozy and cozy. If you use plain wallpaper, then it can be used to cover all walls, excluding other colors.
For the hallway
The corridor is the first thing people see when entering the house. This is the calling card of the entire house. And if it is decorated with taste, it will be a pleasure to return here.
Warm pastel in the hallway will indicate that friendly and calm people live here, who are always happy to have guests. Entering someone else's apartment, many feel uncomfortable and confused, but this design can calm the most shy guest.
In the hallway you can also experiment by choosing bright and rich wallpaper.

Most often, this wallpaper is used to decorate girls' rooms. This is a classic of the genre, there are no special restrictions here.
Children are recommended to use light and delicate shades.
Older girls can include brighter, richer colors in their design.
It’s a little more difficult with teenagers; at this age children need something extraordinary and shocking. But even here you can find a compromise using fashion accessories and bright prints.
A very bright and attractive room will also appeal to teenage girls. But it is worth considering the child’s temperament when choosing a color scheme.
Using pink wallpaper to zone a room is completely justified. This is especially true when children of different sexes live in the same room.
In addition, spatial differentiation is possible not only for young children, but also for older children. In this case, complex shades or a combination of several tones are used.
Soft pink wallpaper in the bedroom interior
Soft pastel light walls look great in the bedroom.
They can be without a pattern, with stripes or dots, small flowers, large peony buds or rose buds - these options will fit perfectly into the interior of a bedroom decorated in a romantic style.

Combining pink with other shades in an interior can be quite difficult. It does not suit most bright and dark colors, as well as overly simple colors. He needs powdery, gray, faded and pastel colors. The exception is grayish shades, such as blue-gray or faded emerald, which can look good in complex color mixes.
So what colors does pink go best with in the interior? Let's get a look!

Features of the combination of shades with pink color
To create elegant and harmonious combinations, it is not enough to be able to combine shades correctly. The result of your efforts will be influenced by factors such as the size of the room, the degree of lighting, layout features and interior style.
Tip: You can extend your walls into smaller spaces by adding colorful wallpaper to just one wall. When combined with softer wallpaper on other surfaces, these shades will help to stretch out certain parts of the room.
In many photos, soft pink wallpaper is combined with other colors, so we offer you several interesting combinations that will refresh the interior, add bright colors and emphasize its dynamism:
Soft pink and white colors are one of the most versatile wall decoration options in home interiors. White color is combined with bright and delicate shades, so any such interior will look harmonious.
Using soft pink and gray wallpaper balances out the bright decor, while silver accents can act as accent pieces to highlight the vintage theme of the design.
For those who want to emphasize the richness of the color scheme of the interior, but at the same time do not want to deviate from the pink palette, pink and purple wallpaper is suitable. It is advisable that light shades predominate in such an interior, otherwise purple tones will darken your room.
In romantic interiors, close to provincial and classic, you can use pink-beige wallpaper or combine it with shades of yellow, cream and sand.
Pink-green wallpaper is suitable for interiors decorated in an ecological style or reflecting a natural theme. Wooden furniture is often used in such interiors.
With blue, turquoise and blue shades. Such combinations promote relaxation and are therefore suitable for maintaining comfort in the bedroom, nursery or bathroom.
Black and pink wallpaper, as well as other combinations with dark shades, are acceptable in many modern and antique styles, but are more often used in east-oriented interiors.
By decorating your bedroom or living room with these colors, you can create an energetic and expressive design.
Antique chic and grace is the effect of pink and gold.
Delicate pink and yellow. It is believed that the two colors do not mix well due to the same temperature.
But it’s not for nothing that in the East houses were decorated with these flowers. A sunny atmosphere in such an interior is guaranteed in any weather.
Pink wallpaper for walls can be combined with each other - smooth transitions between coatings of different saturations will allow you to divide the space into zones, maintain a comfortable atmosphere and create an unusual design based on the play of shades.
How to properly apply wallpaper with a pink background
It's no secret that the design of rooms affects our mood, mental state and family relationships. If we talk frankly about the color pink, few people even make their choice in its favor. Even famous designers are very skeptical about this color in the interior.
Wallpaper whose pink background overshadows all other colors and shades in the room looks unnatural. It is very difficult to choose furniture, curtains and decorative elements for a room with pink wallpaper.
If you really can’t give up the idea of pink, you should consider a few generally accepted rules for decorating rooms.
Pink wallpaper and its use in the interior of rooms:
- If you use pink wallpaper in the kitchen, you should be prepared for an increased appetite among household members. If someone in your family is overweight, then you should not put pink wallpaper in the kitchen.
- The bathroom can be boldly decorated in pink. Warm shades of light pink will promote relaxation and cleansing.
- A bedroom in a single color is decorated by agreement of both partners. If there are no objections to this option, then in the pink bedroom you will have the sweetest dreams.
- A living room in pink tones is allowed provided it is combined with other colors. The choice depends on the style of the room.
- For a hallway made of pink wallpaper, it is best to choose those shades that are darker. This room takes the first hit after returning home from the street. You will simply be tormented to wash light colors.
Pink is a perfect color for decorating a girl's nursery. Here you can give free rein to your imagination and equip a real dollhouse.
Beautiful combinations of pink color in the interior
To create a beautiful design, it is recommended to follow some rules:
- To focus attention on a niche, wall or partition, you can use a rich shade. It needs to be combined with a pastel palette.
- If you want to highlight certain areas of the room, you need to alternately use different materials - pearl, purple and others.
- At the head of the bed you can place a photo wallpaper with a plant or floral pattern or an elegant inscription. You can also make a beautiful collage.
- To visually increase the height of the room, you can use wallpaper with a vertical print.

For bright apartments, it is recommended to choose a cool palette. Lilac, magenta, fuchsia are great options. They are perfect for a feminine bedroom.
Lilac tones will fit well into the interior.
An apricot-lilac color scheme would be a spectacular option. Darker elements look best against a light apricot background. In addition, lilac can be safely combined with gray or blue tones.

Furniture
Soft pink is a good background for Cremona oak furniture. Light-colored furniture goes well with dark pink shades.

Floor
Pink goes well with contrasting colors.
The choice of color depends on the overall style of the interior, but a universal option for floors paired with shades of pink is gray laminate or carpet.
Curtains
Window curtains, together with wallpaper, determine the color scheme of the interior, so you need to choose the right combination of these decorative elements.
One of the basic principles of design is that the color scheme of curtains should be in harmony with the decoration of the walls or furniture.
The color of curtains greatly influences the perception of the interior
Therefore, you can develop several rules for choosing fabrics for a room in which pink wallpaper is hung:
- For bright or light pink walls, which are complemented by dark furniture, curtains in delicate and light colors, for example: white, beige, peach, blue or cream, are quite suitable.
- In an interior with dark wallpaper and light furniture, light curtains made in the same color scheme as the upholstered furniture will fit harmoniously.
- In completely bright rooms, you can use curtains to add a color accent by purchasing curtains in light or dark or light shades with a bright pattern or ornament.
A delicate interior created using wallpaper in various shades of pink should be complemented with curtains with a light texture, such as tulle or organza.
Textile
This is a very important moment. Most often, it is thanks to textile elements that the desired effect of harmony, romance and warmth is achieved.
Bright decorative pillows randomly scattered across the bed and floor, fabric rugs and a soft plush bedspread on the bed will make the room feel warm and cozy.
Pink wallpaper for walls: designers' recommendations
To this day, there is no clear opinion about the color pink. Not everyone likes interior design in this color. Some prefer this shade because of its lightness and airiness, while others, on the contrary, consider it overly cloying.
Both the male and female genders perceive walls decorated in pink in completely different ways.
Most men do not perceive pink walls, because they consider it too cloying and doll-like. For this reason, this shade is rarely considered as an ideal option in the design of a marital bedroom. But if you use slightly muted shades of this derivative color, they can become ideal compromise options that can be used in the kitchen, living room and bedroom.
What shades can be used:
- Pearl and other pastels that are similar to pink. By using exclusively one of these shades to decorate one of the rooms, you can create an interior that can fill the atmosphere with warmth. In such an environment a person can relax after a busy day. That is why it is generally accepted that such tones can be arranged not only in women’s rooms, but will also appeal to many men.
- The bright pink shade (note that the color should not be acidic) will be ideal for women who want to feel like a small and carefree girl. Wallpaper in this shade will bring levity to the room, and will also temporarily help you forget about all your worries.
- For energetic individuals, the ideal option would be to use coral pink or salmon pink. This design is designed to organize a good rest.
- The shade of cherry blossoms and other light colors will help eliminate negativity not only in relationships with your other half, but also reduce aggression, and also improve your inner world.
You can also use wallpaper with cool shades, this includes purple, which looks ideal in those rooms where the sun is constantly present. Such wallpaper is designed to “cool” the interior.
Gradients or ombre wall in shades of pink
Nowadays, the gradient technique on walls is very popular.
It consists of a combination of several tones of the same color, which, thanks to the blurring effect, smoothly transition into each other and create something like a fashionable modern ombre. Wallpaper manufacturers also use this decoration. This design will be very fashionable and effective.
The combination of a darkened wall with light wood floors and furniture in pale pink and cream shades was a real hit.
The contrast created in combination with accessories and decorations gives the interior an exceptionally warm and gentle character.
Pink is a rather rare color in the interior. therefore, it has proven time and again how amazing design potential it has and how many possibilities it offers in the home decor theme.
You can not only paint the walls with it, but also choose an armchair or sofa upholstered in fabric of this color, or a carpet, decorative pillows, or some porcelain trinkets.
The most common way to present it in a home space is by placing it on the walls.
In the form of paints or patterned wallpaper, this color, depending on the shade, can add inner energy and bring calm and comfort to the interior.
Not everyone decides to use this color in the design of living rooms and kitchens and reserves it only for children's bedrooms and bedrooms, but many designers consider this a mistake.
After all, the shades of this color are quite capable of refreshing the space, making it more diverse and original. You just need to use color, shades and combinations correctly.
What wallpaper goes with pink: looking for a compromise
If you still want to decorate the living room and bedroom in pink, but your man does not agree with this, then you need to either abandon this idea or find options that satisfy the vision of both. These include combining pink wallpaper with other colors and shades.
What wallpaper goes with pink wallpaper? This question can be easily answered by professionals.
Each room has its own combination options. In addition, not only combining wallpaper on the walls, but also furniture and decorative elements can also serve as excellent means for neutralizing the energy emanating from the color pink.
What colors go best with pink:
- Gray color in combination with pink will give it seriousness, calmness and nobility;
- Raspberry, used in rare inclusions, will serve as bright spots, against which pink will look paler and lose its sugary qualities;
- Purple will add brightness to the room, and pink will look like part of a bright, colorful picture;
- Green in combination with pink will turn the room into a challenge to established stereotypes;
- Orange gently neutralizes sentimentality and softness, and fills the room with active solar energy;
- Blue and pink will give the room austerity, but will look like an eternal struggle of opposites.
If there are opponents of pink in the house, then you should not combine this color with white. White emphasizes the presence of pink, although it dilutes it, giving the room seriousness. A derivative of red and white, pink goes well with all shades of these two colors. These include: burgundy, fuchsia; raspberry, peach, white-pink, cream, milky.
Monochrome interior using pink color
Monochrome doesn't always mean black and white.
Today, interiors made with a predominance of one color and all its varieties of shades are very popular.
The combination of shadows and tints, the dance of color shades - all this will help create a more harmonious and effective image than using contrasting colors or acidic shades.
To achieve the perfect color combination, it is important to remember a few principles of monochromatic interior design.
The first option is that the walls, like the larger elements of the room, should be decorated with wallpaper in light shades of pink (salmon, coral, apricot), and the furniture should be dark (classic pink or flamingo color).
Using different shades of pink, you can create a harmonious interior.
Don’t forget about accessories, made, for example, in rich red shades.
If the interior of the room is dominated by light pink, then the wallpaper background should be chosen in a darker color scheme than the furniture. An important detail of such a room will be a light carpet that will soften the dark walls.
Another example of monochromatic interior design is the use of evenly light shades of pink light that vary only slightly in darkness. This option can be considered most effective for small rooms or rooms with little natural light.
Advice from experienced designers and psychologists
To understand which color will best fit into the interior, you need to familiarize yourself with the basic recommendations of experts:
- If you plan to use light furniture in the apartment, it is better to choose darker wall coverings. A coral shade would be an excellent option.
- In a spacious bathroom, you can stick pink wallpaper on 2 walls.
- A combination with green, blue, white, orange is perfect for the kitchen.
- Curtains should match the style of the furniture or the shade of the wallpaper.
If the room uses pearl or coral wallpaper and dark furniture, the optimal solution would be light curtains. Light beige, cream, and white curtains will look best. They should be made of lightweight fabrics.
If the walls have a coral tint and the furniture is lighter, you need to choose curtains that match the color of the furniture.
This palette is well suited for a child's room.
Photo wallpaper in combination with pink wallpaper
A black and white wall with pink photo wallpaper is an interesting proposal not only for a glamorous interior.
In a minimalist room, a wall with such wallpaper can be the main decorative element. Intense color enlivens the atmosphere and makes the walls more dynamic.
The decor of the room can be done like this: paint one wall with pink paint or wallpaper, and on the other wall you can place photo wallpaper. The composition is complemented by accessories of the appropriate shade - vases, decorative candles and pillows. The effect will be great!
Soft pink wallpaper (video)
If you decide to use the color pink in the interior design of your homes, be prepared for different ways of perceiving it from family members, relatives and house guests. This color, like everything glamorous, causes resonance and excited discussion. Just as all people on earth are different, so the attitude towards pink varies among people. If your desire is satisfied by decorating a children's room or bathroom in pink, then you can stop there. If your plans are more ambitious, then keep in mind that to use pink wallpaper in the bedroom or living room, you will need to keep the entire room in one of the appropriate styles.
Floral patterns in pink tones are always in fashion
The wall decoration with a characteristic floral motif in which roses are mixed with other flowers does not fade.
Such positive energy and attractive decor definitely plays the proverbial first fiddle. White linen, despite the rich baroque decor, can soften the interior a little. This is a good choice considering that the hardwood floor will be dark brown in color.
A wall with floral motifs on a desk or dressing table looks no less original.

Where is pink most appropriate?
Bathroom
Quite often, various shades of pink are used in bathroom decoration. True, in this case, the best addition to pink would be a lilac, peach, light raspberry or gray-blue shade. Decorating the bathrooms with mirrors would also be a good idea.
Note: the pink color in the decoration of bathtubs gives the skin a special, pleasant tone, which means you will want to look in the mirror again and again.

Kitchen
Pale pink color is no less popular in kitchen design. Such a wall interior is conducive to soulful tea parties and increases appetite. In addition, pure pink appliances and kitchen furniture are ideal for a retro-style kitchen - the result will be a very “joyful” and “lively” kitchen.

Bedroom

Living room
When it comes to decorating a living room, the best combination is pink and lavender. A delicate pink shade of the walls in combination with mint will give the room a bourgeois pomp, but quite moderate. If you add gray-blue tones to pale pink, you can get a very feminine room.
Important: the use of pink in combination with orange will fill the living room interior with the energy characteristic of Indian style.
But still, the most optimal solution is to create a general background for the living room in a cold, light pink color, complemented by furniture and accessories in warm shades, for example, gray-white, brown or beige-cream. And vice versa, if the wall design is made in rich shades of pink, then the furniture and decorative items should be different - light, light coffee or white.

Accessories
When decorating the interior of a bedroom, living room or kitchen in pink, of course, you should not forget about various accessories. Here, by the way, the choice is not limited - soft pink decorative items will ideally complement absolutely any room, no matter what style they have. An interior in light pink tones with original textiles will look very advantageous: white and pink bedspreads, curtains, rugs, etc.
Pink paintings and other interior decor
A pink accessory will easily refresh even the most seemingly “uninteresting” room.
When decorating the interior in a pale or pure pink color, it is not at all necessary to make it the main color. Sometimes it is enough to use pink shades as additional accents.

Psychology of color
Different shades have different effects on people. Before introducing them internally, it is worth finding out how they are combined and how they affect a person.
The influence of color on a person, color combinations
Rich raspberry invigorates and uplifts the mood, and its subtle shades gently refresh the space and fill it with harmony. If you use several halftones in one room, you can get a very interesting effect, which is perfect for the bedroom, where it is important to create an atmosphere of comfort and relaxation for proper rest.
Often in combination with this spring color other colors are used that harmonize beautifully with it:
- white,
- grey,
- blue,
- green.
For bright contrasts, you can use light gray and black colors in interior items or furniture. Such an interior will look very stylish.
A very light interior will not always look good. It will turn out spacious and light, but too boring, monotonous and uninteresting.
If you used peach wallpaper, then expressive furniture will help correct the monotonous furnishings. In this case, it is worth introducing a spectacular element, for example, a marshmallow or lilac sofa or a large image.
The emphasis is on the curtains. Curtains play an important role in interior design; they can make a space appear smaller or larger, as well as make it appear heavier or lighter. For maximum lightness, use fabrics in pleasant pastel colors on soft walls.
Warm or cool shade?
- If you want to create harmony and a cozy atmosphere in the interior, then it is better to choose warm colors in the decoration.
- If the goal is to visually enlarge the space, then it is better to choose cool shades. They will help you achieve the desired effect.
