More Charming Than All the Others: What Makes ktCOLOR Pinks Special

The best colorists have long known the secret to creating exquisite pinks: blending natural reds with sparkling marble whites, avoiding the dullness of artificial pigments. ktCOLOR builds on this timeless tradition, crafting pink shades that are unmatched in charm, warmth, and elegance. Unlike synthetic alternatives, ktCOLOR’s pinks radiate depth and refined vibrancy, bringing a natural appeal to any design. ktCOLOR’s pink palette represents the perfect blend of tradition, artistry, and quality.

A subtle pink, earthy and matt; the Modernists loved it – who would have thought that?

The color codes used for the 1931 Salubra wallpaper series refer to the primary pigment. The wallpaper this color is based on is the lighter version of the color KT 32.101 Raspberry red, and both were made with synthetic madder lake. One is the full tone, the other a pastel. The same pink can be found on paintings by the Swiss artist Giovanni Giacometti, who selected colors for their power of expression. Both Giacometti and Le Corbusier used the light red to highlight dark and somber blues and grays.
