Get the Look: Grey and Pink

By Darlings Of Chelsea

Colour schemes combining grey and pink are very on-trend right now. If you’re looking to refresh your interiors right now, you can’t go too far wrong with this choice of colours. So we have a few tips for how to create a fab living space utilising this hot look.

This combination works particularly well with baby or dusky pinks, but a few touches of brighter shades of pink can work too. And you don’t have to stick with one shade of each, you can mix and match different intensities of pink or grey to give the look more depth. For example, you could combine our Dalby corner sofa with a cushion from our Clarke and Clarke cushion range and then pair this with a grey and pink Geometric rug from our fab Plantation Rugs collection.

When choosing paint for your walls, you can alternate between pink and grey, however, this design scheme is best emphasised through the furnishings, so it can be more effective to keep a neutral background of white for the walls, as this will really make the colours within the room itself stand out. For this reason, this look can work particularly well with Scandinavian style interiors. Also, keeping with Scandi style, don’t overdo it; pick out a few key pieces of furniture, lighting and accessories you want to show off the colours with and work the look around those.

This is a great, sophisticated colour scheme, that’s really easy to introduce into your living space, and also works well alongside other current trends such as copper accessories and light fixtures. Try out our suggestions and see what it looks like in your home.
