"For this girls’ bathroom, we wanted a sophisticated look that they could grow with," says designer Mel Bean. "This pink is the perfect balance of rosy blush and soft peach — just saturated enough but still elegant." (Pale Petal, Benjamin Moore)

“Instead of buying a headboard, I painted the arch on the wall behind our bed with some leftovers from a previous project," says Lilly Ortiz. "The color provides instant gratification: Once it’s on the wall, you feel alive and optimistic and peppy. That’s helpful since we’re now empty nesters!” (For a similar look, try Venetian Rose by Benjamin Moore.)

“To make my client’s little vanity memorable, I had it painted strawberry-ice-cream pink — a shade I pulled from the wallpaper — and then added crystal knobs," says designer Jennifer Strickler. "It’s never failed to get oohs and aahs from visitors.” (In the Pink by Sherwin-Williams)

“This might be a toddler’s room, but the parents were into the coral shade as much as she was.

“This is a warm pink, like the kind you see in sunsets, which is why it works in lots of different spaces. Here it adds a bit of fun in a mostly white bathroom," says designer Jennifer Barron. "I could also see it pepping up an entryway or a small den.” (Romance by Sherwin-Williams)
