Pink Salmon Coral Rugs

Many carpet dying techniques used today are similar to dying techniques of the past however some have been modified through industrialization. In nature, a pink dye is often created by a root called Madder. The cochineal insect and Kamala tree can create a red that can be modified to create different shades of pink. It is not uncommon for these natural substances to be mixed with synthetic dyes to create a more vibrant color. Another popular method is to “over-dye” the fabric to produce a stronger color.

Choosing pink, salmon, or coral rugs for your home will add a burst of color that will compliment a wide variety of other colors whether you want to pair it with bright or neutral colors. A pink rug has the potential to work well in any room of the house and will create a unique look and stylish impression. Pink is less expected to be used in the average home, so adding it to yours is sure to make your space feel out of the ordinary in a great way.

While we believe that colors are gender neutral, some people may be concerned that pink will be “too feminine” or soft but salmon and coral can be paired with more masculine colors such as woody / earthy tones or navy blue to bring balance to the room. These colors will look softer in natural light during the day and give a richer, deeper feeling during the evening.

If you want a soft look providing a gentle accent to your interior design, go with antique rugs that boast a lighter pink. Salmon takes it up a notch adding a bit more color and warmer hue, and coral is a stronger, brighter burst.

All of these colors can be a versatile addition to your home. They work with many different styles from modern decor, to bohemian interiors and even coastal. The possibilities are endless when you start mixing textiles and solids. Surely these happy colors have the potential to make your room of choice (or every room in the house for that matter) stand out, leaving both you and your guests with a wonderful impression.

Decorating with Pink Rugs

Millennial pink may not seem like headlines at this point because it has been around for a while. However, it is not going away any time soon. Decorators are now using it to bring a touch of elegance and class to many interior styles. You can use classic pink and white if you want the expected, but if you want to create a bit of drama, you might try pairing it with black or deep steel gray instead.

The key to using pink effectively in an ultra-modern interior is to say it like you mean it. You do not have to be afraid of mixing and matching various shades and hues for a dramatic look. It is the perfect beginning to an eclectic Boho chic look, and it makes the depth and richness of plants and natural wood accessories stand out. If you want to tone it down a bit, you might want to choose a mostly neutral gray or white room with a pink accent rug. Pink accessories throughout the room in the colors of the rug will give it a well-curated look. A tribal rug with geometrics and bold colors is the perfect finishing touch for this look.

Pink no longer has to be limited to feminine florals. It pairs well with gold, silver, and glass for a streamlined, contemporary look. When Pantone recently chose Living Coral as its Color of the Year, it showed that the pink spectrum can take on a new, more playful character. Salmons and corals are now in the spotlight.

Designers are also using rugs as the focal point of the room. There is no more beautiful way for one to set the room’s tone than with a Persian or oriental rug that features pinks and salmons. These colors give the room a feeling that is fresh, clean, and invigorating.

Pinks and salmons can be romantic and dreamy, or they can be bold and add character to the room. Pink has been undergoing a revival in interior decorating, and designers are now using it in ways that break all the rules about the way you think about pink. Soft pinks can add a splash of color to a minimalist room without adding too much. Modern designers are also pairing it with accents in mustard and teal to create a space that is colorful and contemporary. If you choose to use pink’s more vibrant side, using black and white to pull it together creates a finished look that is not too over-the-top.

The many faces of pink can be used to create a look that is soft, classic, and traditional, or it can be bold and exciting. Pink is a color that asks you to think outside of the box and try something new and different. A pink rug can be used to soften or brighten a room. This is mostly reliant on the way one chooses to accessorize the space. Pink is a versatile color, and it is here to stay. Why don’t you give it a try for your contemporary or traditional interior?
