Welcome to our guide to the enchanting Barbiecore design trend. A unique and playful style, this interior design trend for 2023 is inspired by the iconic Barbie doll and her glamorous world. With its nostalgic flair, this style has taken the world by storm, and we’re here to help you with all the details you need to transform your living space.
At the heart of Barbiecore is a vivid love for celebrating all things pink, bold, and playful. From soft pastels to vibrant fuchsias, pink takes centre-stage. Incorporate pink hues into your wall paint colours, furniture and accessories, and even your artwork. Shown in this Barbiecore-inspired interior is our Stovax Chesterfield log burner – the bright pink walls are complemented by a playful floor tile and bold mustard accents in the furnishings.
Alternatively, if you’re not quite ready to paint the town… pink… then try using pastel tones, like these plush armchairs shown with the Gazco Sheraton 5 electric stove.
Aside from the obvious pink themes, Barbiecore is all about embracing patterns and prints with exuberance. Opt for bold floral prints, polka dots, or chevron patterns to infuse energy and visual interest into your space. These playful patterns can be introduced through wallpaper, upholstery, or decorative accessories. Remember, don’t shy away from mixing different patterns; the key is to have fun and create a visually dynamic environment. Shown with our high-efficiency County 8 wood burning stove is a bold floral print wallpaper to draw the eye to the fireplace whilst still embracing everything Barbiecore sets out to realise.
While pink is typically synonymous with Barbiecore, other hues can equally capture its essence. Shades of purple, green, and even vibrant blues can infuse a space with the same delightful ambience as pink does.
Alongside these bold opulent colours, glamorous accents and accessories into your space such as mirrors with ornate frames, crystal chandeliers, and metallic finishes add a touch of glamour. Emphasize the luxurious and extravagant aspects of Barbie’s world by choosing plush velvet or satin fabrics for upholstery and draperies. We think this freestanding Gazco Marlborough2 gas fire looks the part against the purple panelling. Plus, a pop of metallic with a hanging pendant light shade.
The Barbiecore trend in interior design offers a refreshing departure from conventional styles, encouraging you to embrace your playful and bold side. With its unabashed use of pink, retro influences, playful patterns, and glamorous accents, Barbiecore allows you to create a space that is whimsical, vibrant, and full of personality. So, whether you’re a fan of the Barbie doll or simply drawn to the nostalgia and fun of this trend, don’t be afraid to infuse your living spaces with a touch of Barbiecore and let your imagination soar. After all, interior design is an opportunity to express yourself and create a space that truly reflects your unique style and personality.
