Why Choose Pink?
Pink colour schemes are impressively versatile, ranging from bright and bold to soft, nearly neutral shades. The one thing they all have in common? They’re always warm, playful and irresistibly charming. Cottage, townhouse, apartment or even houseboat, pink colour schemes always add a little character.

If you've ever wondered what it is that makes Farrow & Ball so special, you'll find the answers here. From our high-quality ingredients to our artisanal methods, our 100% water based range of finishes and responsible practices, it's about so much more than just paint and paper.
Our Signature Pink Paint Colours
Our Signature palette is packed with pinks. A true pink, Nancy's Blushes is cheerful and uplifting. It works wonderfully in living rooms and kitchens, especially when paired with greens and blues. In contrast, soft Scallop has such a gentle pink tone that it’s nearly neutral, making it perfect for pared-back palettes where you just want a hint of warmth.
We carefully craft our pinks with subtle undertones to create depth, character and complexity.
How to Create a Pink Colour Scheme
Choosing colours is half the joy — and half the challenge — of decorating. With such beautiful shades to choose from, it can be tricky to narrow them down.
To make pink the centre of attention, you could pair it with a white — our complementary whites are always a wonderful starting point. The contrast helps to make even the subtlest of pinks stand out. Or you could take the opposite approach and minimise contrast. Layer several pinks together for a tonal scheme that feels effortlessly relaxed and inviting.
