It’s fun designing with young families and little girls. No grandchildren yet for me so I can live vicariously and design with them. I am fascinated by the attraction to pink and how to integrate it into a scheme.
These are some of my favorite pinks at the moment…

Please Leave Pink

What I am loving now is Phillippe Starck’s Louis Ghost Chair for Kartell launched in limited edition version to celebrate the birthday of another icon. This is the 50th anniversary Barbie Ghost Chair.
As you would expect from anything Barbie related, the chair’s transparent finish is in pink, and it has a hand-illustrated Barbie image and logo. The chair comes in the smaller child’s version, the Lou Lou Ghost Chair, which is a great option for design-conscious parents.
It’s amazing how something as simple as a pillow can completely change the look of a room. For a splash of color, use a variety of throw pillows and floor cushions in your child’s favorite pink solid colors and interesting patterns.

Few tasks can be as delightful — and as daunting — as creating a room for your child. Since you’re reading this article, it’s clear your child’s happiness and healthy development are high on your list of priorities. Whether you are decorating and furnishing your firstborn’s room or are making a special place for later arrivals of any age, you know every child is a magical, unique individual who’s constantly evolving. And their special spaces are constantly evolving, as well — from cozy baby nurseries to colorful playrooms to walls of teenage self-expression.
I am looking for a pink for my daughters’ room. We are using the Pottery Barn Barbie Duvet.My little girl is so so so excited! I have tried 5 pinks and can’t find the right one. I have tried cotton candy, I have cut in half and now have it at 25%, I have tried pink Cadillac and cut that in half and Pratt and Lambert’s Pink Puff. I am looking for a very light pink and a little darker for an accent color. What would you recommend? Thank you!
