Old pink wall paint and its effect
Like all reddish colour shades, old pink is a wall paint that radiates warmth. In colour psychology, pink is the colour of hope. Its effect is positive and evokes calming feelings. Emotional energies are calmed by pink and feelings of anger, aggression and neglect are alleviated.
With pink tones, red, the colour of love, combines with white, the colour of innocence. Accordingly, pink stands for powdery delicacy and tenderness. If you add a few brown pigments to this pink, you get a traditional colour that stands for love and nostalgia. If you increase the dose of brown pigments, you get an intense, earthy old pink that can be a power colour when used correctly.
