Coral pink feels lively, optimistic and sunny. It is associated with tropical holidays, sunsets and summer fashion, and a similar shade, Living Coral, was chosen as Pantone's Color of the Year in 2019.
Tips for Using Coral Pink
Coral pink contains very little blue, which makes it a pleasant warm light in the evening. For a sunset-style portrait, place the light to one side of your subject in a dim room. As a background it pairs beautifully with turquoise and sandy neutrals for a beachy palette.
