Recently I have been thinking about a very specific hue, a colour that polarises. Pink. While some are all for it, others are – gently put – rather reluctant. I was never head over heels into pink, but lately I was coveting a special combination: pink and grey. If I had to narrow it down more precisely, I would say dusky pink with an anthracite hue. In order to give you an idea what I have in mind, I’ve put a little collage together for you. Plus a few market finds to bring that style into your homes. Hope you enjoy!

i love grey and pink! a little bit more grey than pink but overall that combo is super. that eames chair is my favorite. great color!
I love the combination! Even for clothes! I’ve got a pink living room and will give it a touch of grey. Thank you for your inspiration!
The color combo is fantastic. I personally adore this shade of pink. With grey, it looks both playful and sophisticated.
grey and pink is great BUT it’s absolutely got to be ‘Altrosa’ or ‘Antikrosa’ so well done for choosing those:)
That’s the only pink hue I really like:-)
I love this color combo! It takes something that could be to babyish or girly and transforms it into something grownup and sophisticated, with the introduction of grey. I love it!
me also ::love::
🙂
What a cute pendant lamp! and the cushion from Fine Little day has been on my wishlist for a while! 🙂
I think it’s a atural combination. Very calming.
I love the palette as well! Perfect balance between the sexes and it is such a classic, calming, and elegant combination! LOVE!
That subway map is awesome. I think I’ve never seen the subway connected with pink … love it.

Oh thank you, Meagan, that is so sweet of you!! Due to blogging, I have no decent social life anymore ahaha – I am joking, but it does take a lot of time and well, it’s my night occupation:-)
Grey & pink are a fantastic combination Igor and one I have used myself in a living space – http://www.walnutgreydesign.com/portfolio/living-space-2/

Gerard, that is a fantastic example!!! Love it!!
I didn’t know that I could combine grey and pink to get a nice interior design. Both the colours are matching and charming. These colours are perfect to decorate the rooms.
