30 Retro Pink Kitchen Ideas

Retro pink kitchen ideas are a great way to add some fun to your home.

While a full pink kitchen may not be for everyone, there are lots of ways to bring some retro pink style to your kitchen without going overboard.

In this post, we’ll share some of our favorite retro pink kitchen ideas to help you add some fun, vintage style to your home!

1. Pink and black is a classic 50s combo

The black and pink combination is a classic one for the 1950s era. In fact, this kitchen design would have looked right at home in the 1957 House of the Future at Disneyland.

The kitchen is a major nod to the era, with a pink and black color scheme, gold accents, and a backsplash with a geometric design that echoes the floor tile. Even the bar stools have a retro vibe.

2. Use pink for your cabinets

If you’re looking to make a statement with your kitchen, you can’t go wrong with pink cabinets. This design by Ashley Petrone of Arrows and Bow features a beautiful shade of pink on the lower cabinets, which adds a pop of color to the space.

To keep the kitchen from feeling too pink, she used white cabinets on the top and added a white tile backsplash.

3. Light pink kitchen walls

If you’re looking for a way to incorporate pink into your kitchen without using it on your cabinets, consider painting your kitchen walls pink.

In this kitchen, the light pink walls are the perfect backdrop for the open shelving and the vintage-style artwork. We love how the pink walls are balanced out by the white cabinets and countertops, as well as the black accents found throughout the space.

4. Use pink for your kitchen island

When designing a kitchen island, you can use any color you want. If you want to add a pop of color to your kitchen, but you don’t want to use pink for your cabinets, you can use pink for your island instead.

This kitchen designed by Tamsin Johnson uses a dusty pink for the island and a light blue for the cabinets. The color scheme is carried throughout the kitchen with the bar stools and the pendant lights.

5. Pink kitchen accessories

If you’re not quite ready to commit to a full-on pink kitchen, consider incorporating a few pink kitchen accessories.

You can add a pop of pink with a toaster, a set of cookware, a small appliance, or even a few decorative items.

These are also great options if you’re on a budget or if you’re renting and can’t make major changes to the space.

6. Pink kitchen appliances

If you love the idea of a pink kitchen, but you’re not sure about committing to a pink fridge or cabinetry, you might want to consider a pastel pink appliance.

The stand mixer is a classic, but these days you can find almost any small kitchen appliance in a variety of colors. The options are endless, and you’re sure to find the perfect pink accent for your kitchen.

These appliances are perfect for adding a pop of color to an otherwise neutral kitchen or for complementing pink cabinetry or countertops.

7. Pink kitchen tiles

If you want to add a pop of pink to your kitchen but don’t want to commit to painting your cabinets, then consider adding pink kitchen tiles.

You could go all out and cover your walls or floors in a patterned pink tile or just add a splash of color as an accent. We love how in this kitchen, they have added a few pink tiles to the backsplash to tie in with the pink pendant light.

8. Pink and gray kitchen

In this kitchen, a pink Smeg fridge is the perfect focal point and sets the color scheme for the rest of the room.

The pink here is paired with a soft gray, which is a great way to add a more neutral color to a pink kitchen. You can see the gray in the lower cabinets, countertops, and backsplash.

9. Pink and white kitchen

If you’re not sure about going all out with a pink kitchen, you can still achieve a vintage look with a softer color palette. This kitchen from deVOL Kitchens features a soft pink and white color scheme that’s reminiscent of classic 1950s kitchens.

The soft pink cabinets are complemented by white countertops and a white farmhouse sink. The brass hardware and lighting add a touch of warmth to the space, and the white walls keep the room feeling light and airy.

10. Pink and turquoise kitchen

This kitchen takes the pink and turquoise color scheme to the next level. The turquoise cabinets are a beautiful backdrop for the pink accents.

The pink and white checkered floor is the focal point of the room. The pink floor is balanced by the pink pendant light and the pink appliances.

11. Pink kitchen table and chairs

The pink kitchen table and chairs in this retro kitchen are a great way to add a pop of pink.

The table and chairs are the focal point of the room, and the rest of the decor is kept simple to allow the pink to really stand out.

The pink table and chairs are a great way to add a pop of color to an otherwise neutral room.

12. Pink kitchen curtains

Curtains are a simple way to add a pop of color to your kitchen. We love these pink gingham curtains that add just the right amount of pink to this otherwise neutral kitchen.

The best part about adding color to your kitchen with curtains is that they’re easy to swap out if you ever want to change up your color scheme.

13. Pink kitchen walls and cabinets

If you are a fan of the color pink but aren’t sure about filling your kitchen with it, consider using it as an accent color instead.

In this kitchen, the soft pink walls add a touch of color to the space without being too overwhelming. The white cabinets and countertops help to balance out the pink, creating a bright and airy feel.
