After spending the day in Palm Beach and losing count of all the pink homes and buildings, I decided a post on the subject was in order. Being a girly girl, I personally love pink homes. However, I would never have dreamed of painting my home in Dallas pink (even when I was single, and my “bachelorette pad” had an original 1950s Barbie pink kitchen… more on that later.) It would have have looked completely out of place. But here in Florida, pink homes are very appropriate, much to my delight! And I’m guessing you would be hard-pressed to find more pink homes per capita than in Palm Beach.
Joe Davis at the JPD School of Design in Palm Beach concurs. In fact, he has written this trusty guide to determining a suitable exterior paint color for your home, based on your region. “When in Palm Beach you want to feel like you’re in Palm Beach, riiiight?” Davis says in support of tropical pink homes. Yes, please! With hues ranging from Pepto to Salmon, let’s take a virtual tour…

Great article! We are re-doing a 1960’s era small villa in Delray Beach and we’re going with Benjamin Moore powder pink – at 25% strength. The roof is Bermuda style with white concrete tiles. Still trying to figure out a complimentary shutter color. Maybe black or dark green? Any ideas appreciated!
