Wicked: For Good is coming, and with it, a flurry of pink and green interiors inspiration. Though this color pairing taps into a fun cultural moment, it also represents a new iteration of a timeless palette - one that preview images of the set are inspiring us to tap into.
It's no secret that pop culture has a huge impact on the latest interior design trends. Andrew Seed, managing director at The Odd Company explains: 'From Barbiecore to Cottagecore, we have seen firsthand how online trends and movie franchises can impact both fashion and interior trends. We believe that the pink and green Wicked color palette is about to be the next big thing. It’s a versatile trend that can be both opulent and charmingly whimsical, a true showstopper for any room.'
He continues: 'With the upcoming release of Wicked, the iconic pink and green color scheme is about to make its way into homes everywhere. We’re expecting to see this palette embraced not only with bold feature walls and statement furniture, but also in more subtle accents like tiles, soft furnishings, and artwork.'
As seen in the shot below, the complementary pairing brings whimsy and style to any room.
What is so universal about this trend is that whether you identify with Cynthia Erivo or Ariana Grande's character, there is a version of this palette that will work for you. It is supremely versatile.
Andrew advises: 'For a bold, dramatic feel, pair rich emerald greens with equally vibrant shades like fuchsia and hot pink. If you’re after something softer, pastel greens like lime or olive go hand-in-hand with a gentler pink palette—think baby pinks and delicate blush tones.'
For an even more muted look on integrating this film's aesthetic into your home, lean into amplifying the green room ideas you've already been coveting for years.
'Green has been slowly making its way back into trending home designs - even the 70s avocado bathroom is returning,' states Andrew. 'So you may have already embraced the green, which will make it even easier to add a touch of Wickedcore to your home.'

Color drench with Lick's Pink 08 for a cozy feel that avoids any harsh contrasts with white. It would look so beautiful paired with zellige tiles.
Looking to create a cottagecore bathroom? Anthro describes these whimsical towels as 'soft as the breeze', and they're certainly pretty too. This pink floral variation works well with greens, whites, and practically any other neutral.
We can't get enough of this sweet, pink stool, and this one from Wayfair has a fun and functional swivel capability.
He advises: 'Emerald green sofa ideas have been massively on trend this year - to get the look, pair with a few blush pink cushions and perhaps a throw or two. Nothing too bold, just a pop of colour to soften things up.'
As this look is relatively trendy, it can make sense to integrate it through small accents, rather than an overall makeover.
Andrew recommends: 'Have you already got green walls? Pink lamps and lighting fixtures will help make those emerald tones come to life! The trick is subtlety; accessorise with pink in small yet effective doses whilst letting green remain the star of the show on your rugs, furniture, and walls. Even a touch of artwork is an easy way to bring in the balance between the two colors.'
Everything is inspiration, and the interiors from our favorite films and pop culture moments can be especially generative. By leaning into the moment with timeless details, creating something exceptional becomes simple.
