The universal meaning of pink
Universally, pink conveys intimacy and nurturing.
My friend Jill from the Colour Studio has a room in her home that is painted pink. A pink that is a mix of the Intimate & Nurturing images below. I’m not a huge fan of the soft, feminine pinks but this pink…when I am in that room, I feel enveloped…nurtured…happy.
In fact, many hospitals and prisons have found that pink is good at calming people in agitated circumstances…there is a lot of research supporting this including the use of pink lighting.
Make sure to check out my pink board on Pinterest for more visions of pink including a pic of Jill’s pink room.
