8 muted pink kitchen decor ideas for the neutral home

When we think of neutral colours, pink probably doesn’t come come to mind but pink can totally be a neutral tone — and muted or neutral pinks work really well in a kitchen. If you want to refresh your kitchen, but are bored of beiges, greys and whites, a soft, neutral pink may be the answer.

The key to choosing a neutral pink is to opt for shades that have grey or beige undertones as well as choosing matte finishes that will help keep the look calm and minimalist. Whether you choose to add a little bit of pink or a lot, pink kitchens ooze warmth and are the ideal colour for anyone who loves a neutral coloured home but wants a hint of colour too.

8 pink kitchen decor ideas to inspire you

If you want to completely embrace the pink kitchen look, paint your walls to match your kitchen cabinets. The tone on tone look keeps things looking minimalist while still adding colour to your kitchen. Black and white accents are always a great addition to a pink kitchen as they really pop against muted pinks.

For a subtle look, very pale pink cabinets are a great idea. In the kitchen above the palest pink cabinets have been paired with very light grey worktops and warm wooden floors for a clean yet cosy look. While providing a hint of colour, this kitchen still has a very modern and minimal look.

Pink kitchen cabinets are one way of decorating a pink kitchen. But if you just want pink accents and aren’t planning a full reno, adding some dusty pink tiles could be the answer. Pale pink tiles work especially well with light coloured cabinets like the light wooden cabinets in the kitchen above. White, light grey and light beige cabinets would also work well with pink tiles.

A quick way to add some pink to your kitchen is by painting the walls. There are lots of neutral pink shades to choose from but this limewash paint adds so much texture and interest to the space. Paired with white cabinets and warm woods, this pink kitchen is so cosy and inviting.

Black, white and pale pink are the perfect colour combination for a stylish and modern kitchen. Here the soft pink cabinets have been balanced with wooden trim and lots of black and white. The exposed painted brick adds texture to this minimal kitchen and contrasts the smooth surfaces of the cabinets.

Another way to quickly and easily introduce pink in to your kitchen is by painting an accent wall. In the kitchen above, a deep, dusky pink has been paired with dark wood kitchen cabinets. But this shade of pink would work with any neutral toned cabinets, from light to dark.

Pink kitchen cabinets come in a range of neutral pink shades. In the kitchen above they’ve opted for a striking pink that has grey undertones. Paired with mostly grey and white accents, this pink kitchen is stylish and sophisticated. I especially love the deep reddy-brown dining chairs that really pop against the pink cabinets.

Yet another way to add pink to a kitchen is with pink marble surfaces. Here white cabinets have been complemented with gorgeous pink marble worktops and a pink marble island. If not pink marble, there are a range of other pink materials like terrazzo, quartz and more that can be used as kitchen worktops.

Which of these pink kitchen decor ideas is your favourite? For me, I love the pale pink cabinets featured in the third pic – simple, subtle and so stylish.
