Old rose, a must-have shade in color charts
The old rose color is a pink shade with character: a color associated with femininity like pink colors in general, old rose is particularly trendy and is one of the key shades of pink at the moment.
A distinctive pink with a subtle touch of mauve to add a touch of elegance: dusty pink can vary in intensity from a light powder pink to a more earthy pink and has the advantage of being suitable for many rooms in the house. Whether you're looking to create a romantic ambiance or opt for a sophisticated pink.
“We wanted a pink with character on the bedroom walls.”
"Without being cliché, we were looking for a pink for our daughter's room. But we wanted to find a pink with personality and a certain cachet: among all the pinks in the Algo palette, we fell in love with the old pink.
It's a shade that we immediately liked, because it also has a soft and elegant side that is not easy to find in this color family.
Our work went well, we applied two coats and the undercoat. The application was not difficult, and we were amazed by the very fast drying of the paint.
In the kitchen, living room or bathroom: rooms where it is possible to apply old pink
The child's bedroom is not the only room in which it is possible to apply old pink paint: the character of this shade makes it a color that can be combined in many rooms of the house, even more so when it is combined with other shades of paint or decorative elements (copper, metal, wood, etc.)
In the living room, it will be highlighted by a soft color like cream white or beige.
For a slightly more stark contrast, a standard white can also work perfectly.
Don't be afraid to use this shade in the kitchen or bathroom if you're planning to do some painting there: it will find its place on a section of wall to bring color and character to the room.
Of course, just like in the child's bedroom, old pink paint will be perfectly usable in the master bedroom: old pink paint will be a major asset for creating an intimate atmosphere or for creating a romantic ambiance.
