Work With ME

Emily Murray founder of The Pink House interiors blog

Hey! I'm Emily Murray

I'm the founder/editor of award-winning interiors blog The Pink House

I've spent 10 years (give or take the odd maternity leave) as a lifestyle journalist and editor (Grazia, Glamour, Stylist, The Guardian, Conde Nast Traveller, Cosmopolitan, Mother & Baby, etc), and before that I worked in advertising. Just before setting up The Pink House I worked for a year as Editorial Director for PR company Stripe Communications. I recently finished a stint as acting Editor at i-on (Scotland’s largest lifestyle magazine, circulation 40,000), where I now write an interiors column.

I used to jump off buildings and do backflips for cash, but that's another story.

What is The Pink House?

  • I launched The Pink House - 'fabulous family living, despite the kids' - on 29 February 2016, combining inspirational interiors, travel & lifestyle content with entertaining writing and beautiful photography.

  • In 2017 The Pink House won the prestigious Amara Interior Blog Awards 'Best Written Blog' award. The Pink House won 'Best Newcomer' in the same awards in 2016. I was a judge at the 2018 Amara IBA awards.

  • In 2017 The Pink House's fast-growing Instagram account @pinkhouseliving (current following: more than 70,000) was selected as one of Sheerluxe's Best Interiors Instagram Accounts.

  • The Pink House's Pinterest page receives up to 1 million views every month. The Pink House won the 'Best Wow Factor Interior' award at Pinterest's inaugural Interior Awards last year.

  • The Pink House is a registered trademark, and a limited company, of which I am the Director.

  • For The Pink House's press coverage (which includes Grazia, Glamour, The Times, Good Homes and Apartment Therapy), click HERE.

  • I also offer a styling/design service - for example, I designed the personal shopping area and bar in River Island's Oxford Street flagship store, and styled a room set at the entrance of last year's House & Garden Festival in London Olympia.

  • I take on the occasional interior design personal client.

How we can work together

  • I love working with brands to create compelling, beautifully written, styled and photographed content. I write posts my style-savvy readers love, while subtly explaining the benefits of your brand. My preferred platforms are my blog and my Instagram account @pinkhouseliving where I also create video content for my IGTV channel.

  • Brands I have worked with include: Marks & Spencer, QVC, La Redoute, River Island, Amara, B&Q, Primark and Jacob's Creek.

  • Whatever size of campaign you’re after - from one Instagram photo or one blog post, to a year-long partnership - if your brand is a good fit with The Pink House, I can help.

  • I am an experienced speaker at events and workshops, (recently at Pinterest’s annual conference KnitCon, Esquire Self-Made and Top Drawer) and am comfortable in front of a camera, whether on Instagram Stories, or performing a script for a brand video, watched by millions (Marks & Spencer, B&Q).

  • I work with selected travel brands, reviewing luxury accommodation and experiences, in both family and kid-free contexts. I'm currently brand ambassador for Mark Warner holidays.

  • I work with The Pink House's very own top interiors photographer Susie Lowe to offer a full professional photography service, where required.
