Pink wall

If you're searching for colour inspiration to overhaul your dining space, consider giving pink a try. It's not the most obvious colour to decorate a dining room with, warm shades like pink work particularly well in spaces where you entertain guests and get together with family. 

Just because you tend to avoid bold colours, doesn't mean you have to discount pink entirely when considering dining room decor. Dusky pinks are perfect for creating a stylish and sophisticated space, while pastels are a great choice for those eager to create a more traditional and serene interior. 

Thinking about dining room ideas and considering pink decor? At Tikkurila, you'll find an unbeatable selection of pink paint colours to choose from. 

Whether you're simply giving your dining room a minor refresh or are planning a more significant image overhaul, we've got plenty of pink shades that will leave you feeling inspired. 

Is Pink a Good Colour for a Dining Room?

Too many people are put off by pink walls. While bolder hues can prove overwhelming, the right shade of pink adds instant warmth to any space. Much like red, pink is perfect for stimulating the senses and injecting some personality into drab dining spaces. 

Pink will also prove a good fit in rooms with limited light. If your room is lacking windows, rely on artificial lighting instead. Just a couple of wall sconces or table lamps are all you need to create a vibrant interior. 

A pink palette is also surprisingly versatile. To keep things simple, pair pink walls with light grey and white, as well as natural materials. An oak dining table will look right at home alongside walls, although more daring shades can be used alongside contemporary furniture. 

If you like to lean into luxury when decorating, pink is the way to go. Use dusky pinks to paint your walls, then pick out details with jewel-toned shades. Metallics will also work well with pink walls, while leafy greens will add further vibrancy. 

Need some pointers for complementary colours? If you're keen on a more muted theme, go with browns, blues and greens. Alternatively, use classic colour combinations like white and red to add an extra level of detail to your dream dining space.

Bright pinks are brilliant for freshening up dull dining spaces, especially if they're on the small side. If your dining room is in desperate need of an image overhaul, think about giving a paint colour like Milkshake Y411 a try. 

This bubblegum pink shade is a vibrant choice, but it's not overly stimulating so can still be used to create a mature and sophisticated space for entertaining. If you're using this colour on its own, think about furnishing your room with white dining sets or light wood accents.

In the mood for something richer? How about Nectar L418?
