Pink has the reputation for being a tricky color to use in interiors. A hot pink is one of the boldest hues you can get, and a light pink can read as overly youthful. However, when used with confidence and intention, wow, is pink a powerful color in interior design. And if you needed even more convincing, our August color crush, Sweet Guava, is serving up some major inspiration. It's deliciously sweet, it's full of warmth, but just tame enough not to overwhelm a space.
And it's the perfect color crush for August, as this has been the summer of bold color trends. From crushing on minty sea foams in June to July's energetic Mango Swirl, something about warmer weather makes me want to add a splash of saturation to my decor. And while I may be biased, Sweet Guava is the kind of pink that proves bold, playful colors have a place in refined interiors, and when styled well, they can last long past the summer sunshine.
