The Pink House in Real Homes top 10 interior trends

The Pink House in Real Homes magazine

April 17, 2016

Wondering what the 10 interiors trends are for spring/summer 2016? Well, according to Real Homes magazine, The Pink House's living room is one of them. Number 6, to be precise - apparently our living room exemplifies the Bursts of Brights trend that the stouter-of-heart home owners will be rocking in their abodes this season. It's unclear how the ride-on hedgehog fits into Real Homes' trend, however - maybe he has a particularly mid-century look about him?

"Fabulous family living!"

Emily Murray founder of The Pink House Living

"Hello! I’m Emily Murray, founder and editor of The Pink House. I’m a lifestyle journalist who has written and edited for loads of different publications, including Stylist, The Guardian, Grazia, Cosmopolitan, Conde Nast Traveller, Brides, and Mother & Baby. Here I am in the bricks-and-mortar Pink House in South East London, where I live with the Pink House Husband (PHH) and our two small, semi-feral boys. Our fabulous Christopher Farr sofa is covered in marker pen and chocolate, and the Eames rocker has a few suspicious stains. Come in and make yourself at home. No need to take your shoes off."
