Pantone may have hailed Greenery as Colour of the Year but judging from recent showings at Salone del Mobile in Milan, pink is having a moment too.

Long before the hue dominated Gucci runways, pink had already been big in design. The emergence of the hue—especially the paler tones of the spectrum—are whispers of the lasting influence of Scandinavian design (where it’s a common colour), as well as the growing appeal of a softer, more romantic approach to interior decoration. You just have to look at how many foodies have Instagramed the India Mahdavi-designed Gallery at Sketch restaurant in London, to see that it's a colour that really clicks. 

Want to cop the look? Here are a few ideas and pieces to translate it to your abode.

Sé

 
British brand Sé has always had an affinity for pastels, but they’ve clearly shown their love for blush with the new Stay Daybed, presented at Rosanna Orlandi in Milan. The rounded shape, metallic piping and the sumptuous shade of pink makes this a piece to covet.

Trust a fashion label to add a twist to a streamlined sofa, especially using the power of furnishing fabric. Collaborating with designer Toan Ngyuen, the Six Shades of Palmer sofa showcases a beautiful gradation and proves that colour works with clean lines, too.
