Pink!

I just recently posted about a home in House Beautiful that was impeccably designed by Jonathan Berger. In it, he designed an entry way in a bright pink, called Razzle Dazzle by Benjamin Moore, which was a VERY bold choice! And it was fabulous.

I may be incorrect here, but it seems that bright pink is on the front of the design scene right now and wanting to be heard!

Using Pink with Other Colors:

All shades of pink become a different personality when combined with other colors. Pink and orange are playful and vibrant and are commonly used in teenagers rooms or young adults. Pink mixed with black or brown becomes more of a sharp statement of style because of the contrast. See below for more color combinations.

Feng Shui and Pink:

Pink in an environment sooths the heart and fills it with love. Place it in the Southwest area of your home for it to connect to the Love and Marriage aspect of your life.
