"Think dusty rose, earthy clay hues, and powdery blush tones, all major upgrades to the often overused millennial pink you loved in the 2010s. These soft, desaturated tones inject a warm, playful vibe - all without assaulting your eyes with bright hues, explains Carla Royder, founder of San Antonio-based Carla Royder Designs & Co. Thanks to their muted tones, many pink paints even serve as neutrals, grounding a room's palette while still feeling fresh."
"That said, if you're aiming for a brighter, more energetic look, designers aren't discounting interiors dressed in vibrant pinks altogether. "Alongside these earthier pinks, there has also been a joyful embrace of more vibrant, fruit-forward tones, such as raspberry and dragonfruit, that bring freshness and playfulness to interiors," Barnard explains. They are less popular yet beautiful nonetheless; designers reserve these punchier shades for moments where drama and brightness are required."
Muted, desaturated pinks—dusty rose, earthy clay, and powdery blush—are replacing bright millennial pink as the current trend. Softer pinks provide calming, cozy atmospheres suited to living rooms, bedrooms, and powder rooms, while warmer mid-tones enliven entryways and kitchens. The muted palette allows many pinks to function as neutrals that ground a room while maintaining warmth and freshness. For bolder statements, vibrant fruit-forward shades such as raspberry and dragonfruit are used selectively to inject energy and playfulness. Designers recommend choosing pink with intention and reserving punchier hues for moments that demand drama and brightness.
