Our new front room dulux boho blush and cornflower white -ponk and grey effectively

[Woodward23]

Were having our front room painted in these 2 colours a long wall we have is going to be boho blush and all the other walls will be cornflower white its effectively an incredible light grey. Does anyone have these colours or a pink and grey front room id love to see it if possible please

I am not sure such a warm and cold colour work well together, although I like both individually.
Plus I am not a fan of the whole feature wall thing.
Do you have accessories to tie them together?

Yes we do pillows blankets candles and pictures

I have a pink utility room, bedroom and living room so definitely like pink. All with some green in as well.
Not so keen on grey though. Unless you are trying to blend with an existing grey floor I think
There are other colours I would choose.

My frontroom is setting plaster (pink), but on all 4 walls. I like the pink to be slightly toned/greiged down rather than bubblegum. I haven't seen the dulux irl, so can't comment. I have a couple of grey (mainly Annie Sloan upcycled) furniture in the room and like the colour combo. But I really prefer the pink to wrap around the whole room and can only encourage you to do a full Barbie with grey assesdories/furniture 😀

My pink-grey combo, albeit with blues, greens and mustard yellow.

I agree - go all out with the Boho Blush. Feature walls are very dated, and the Boho Blush is absolutely gorgeous - a lovely choice. I would lean into it and probably complement with a tonal neutral (elephant’s breath sort of thing) and accent with faded Moroccan green (f&b arsenic etc).

I think you will lose the impact of the beautiful pink with a grey wall.

Yes, pink and Green are lovely together

We have a pink/grey/green/blue (etc!) combo in our family bathroom and love it.

I also much prefer to wrap all walls in the same colour (in fact we used the same colour - Farrow & Ball Setting Plaster - on the ceiling too).

Setting Plaster is such a lovely colour I've recently repainted our vintage kitchen larder in it too.

I've added a couple of pics of the bathroom.

Btw, @NellyBarney I love your room - not least because you've incorporated the exact Pooky shades I'm planning for our bedroom 💓

Grey walls are already feeling dated as are feature walls so I would use setting plaster on your walls( all of them)

This is cornflower white on one wall not my room), pink curtains and throw similar to the blush. It’s pretty cold looking.

Ditch the grey - it's too cold with the warm pink

I like the idea of ponk paint 😃but not with grey which I thought was becoming outdated, to me it already is as it seems to have been everywhere for ever.

@LibertyLily Ooh, lovely bathroom. The Pooky shades are indeed great!! The larder is the last room in our house that still needs tackling, so very impressed and inspired that you gave it a makeover.

OP, if you are halfway handy, pink looks so lovely on panelling, as you can see in Lily's bathroom. And panelling somehow stops a colour from being too overwhelming, so a great alternative to a feature wall if you are worried to commit to pink all over - or you could have your feature wall effect by just panelling 1 wall, but have all 4 walls in pink. If your walls are in good order, you can basically just glue the square panelling strips to the wall, it's a very simple hack with imo massive impact.

Yes ditch the feature wall, love the pink

Love the tiles @LibertyLily where are they from?

I am generally or that fussed about whether something is a current trend or not. But to me this looks really dated, and not in a good, vintage way unfortunately. It really reminds me of the 70s crockery my parents used to have. Sorry.
I think the pink needs to be either paler or cooler toned.
Unless you are going for a 70s vibe and have furniture to fit. In which case, it's spot on.

Thank you @backoffbuster - they are from Your Tiles 🙂

@NellyBarney - thank you! I love Pooky and currently have two lamps and eight shades from them...so probably need to reign it in for a while!

I have a completely coral living room and I love it. I mixed it myself & its somewhere between setting plaster & your boho shade. It warms & brightens a small, cold, dark room. I have used Cornflower white in the past & it's brilliant for illuminating dark rooms. Lots of people saying grey is dated here... the truth is grey will always be a classic decorating colour as its a useful neutral. In any case, Cornflower white is not a true grey, once you have it on a whole wall you will see it's a very subtle sky blue. It might be worth looking at Crown Sail White too, its a very slightly greyed white. Works with everything.

Also, feature walls can still be great. Maybe painting your chimney breast a colour is a thing of the 90s, but having blocks of colour can be very contemporary, I like the feature wall in this image - it adds something to an otherwise boring room if you don't have period features etc. Without seeing your actual room & understanding your sense of style its impossible to know whether you will achieve what you have in mind, but just go with your gut and whatever brings you joy, you can always repaint if it doesn't quite work. I think if you are going for contemporary, fun vibes it could work.
