Blush pink interiors: shop the look

Posted on 16th September 2023

Delicate blush tones are ideal for achieving a calming and comforting aesthetic.

Pale shades, as creative director and colour expert at Dulux Marianne Shillingford said, are supporting colours. This means you can use blush pink confidently or pared it back with complementing palettes.

For example, blush pink is great for softening dark blues and greens. And, when paired with similar muted tones such as greys, creams or sage green, you can achieve a relaxing scheme.

To help you welcome blush pink in your kitchen, bedroom and bathroom, we’ve put together an inspiration gallery and a shopping edit. Let’s dive in…

Blush pink kitchens

Whether you’re looking to just paint the walls in this muted tone or opt for colourful cabinetry and matching tiles, cookware and accessories, blush pink is great as an all-over colour, as well as an accent shade.

This hue works well in both contemporary or more classic interiors, and – depending on its tone – it can add warmth or a cool touch to a kitchen.
