The influence of pink posters
The colour pink is sometimes referred to as the colour of universal love of oneself and of others, because it
represents friendship, affection, harmony and approachability. Pink is the sweet side of the colour red. While red
stirs up passion, aggression and action, large amounts of the colour pink can actually create physical relaxation and
softness. In pink posters, you will see a lot of this, but that does not make these items any less powerful and
visually stimulating. While red embodies the heat and passion in love, pink speaks more for the romantic and charming
aspect of it. Pink posters can bring about feelings of serenity, relaxation and contentment, as well as neutralizing
disorder or soften frustration. This is a very useful and necessary tool to have in your optical arsenal, as it can
diffuse stressful situations and give the room a chill vibe. You cannot be furious if you look at a pink poster like
Swirling Smoke, which is almost like visual cotton candy, helping you sit back and take a breather.
A little bit of history
In most of the Western world, the colour pink is often associated with femininity, but this has not always been the
case. There was a time between the 1920s and 1940s, where pink was considered a colour best suited for men because it
is closely related to red, but without the often provoking aggression the latter brought to mind. As you can see in
some motifs in pink posters, pink received a fuchsia makeover during the 1960s Pop Art movement and a neon-soaked
revival in the heyday of the 90s, before settling down currently as the pale and fashionable pigment of the millenial
generation. You can see this evolution in plenty of pink posters, especially those that are film posters of years
past. Eight and a Half can be classified as a pink poster that exhibits the aforementioned fuchsia makeover.
Styling with a pink posters
Styling a whole room from floor to ceiling in pink is probably not topping a lot of priority lists when it comes to
interior design. Unfortunately, it is a common misconception that this is what to do with pink, meaning either all or
nothing. As you will see in the pink posters selection of Photowall, this pigment has so many different variations of
hues and shades that you are spoiled for choice. As a result, if you want a strong pink effect in your home, you can
either choose a lot of one tinge or several pink posters in the space you would like to transform. Keep in mind, hot
or strong pink is used to communicate playfulness, while light pink is used to communicate tenderness. Graffiti
Shape, for example, uses a lot of stronger pink, together with other colours to balance out the visual weight.
Watercolor Minimalism XIIII on the hand makes the best use of light pink, being a wonderful sample of a pink poster
that does not overwhelm but at the same time can be the ideal focal point of any room with its charming design and
appealing colours.
