For this lookbook, we've rounded up ten home interiors decorated in pastel tints that show how ice-cream colours can give spaces a fresh, calming look. The selection from our archive, which includes bathrooms to bedrooms and kitchens, shows how pastels – made by adding white to pure colours to make them more luminous and less saturated – can create a spring-like feeling.

Never really out of fashion, pastels have strong psychological associations with new life with their pale, cheery tints representing a midway stage between the darkness of winter and the full-blown colour of summer. This is the latest roundup in our Dezeen Lookbooks series providing visual inspiration for the home. Previous articles in the series feature rooftop gardens, bright kitchens, interiors with statement plants, terrazzo kitchens, and stylish home offices.

Not very adventurous.

2. I had to zoom in on number 6 to see what that bottle was...

It's a prescription for sleeping pills. Who would put that on their wall? How peculiar.

3. It says

Ms. Monroe on the bottle, it was sleeping pills and the doctor was Dr. Finger. I don't really get it since I never cared much about her or her story but didn't she overdose on sleeping pills? I find it an odd picture to have over your bed but whatever.

6. Who paints 4 times a year?

Do people really do this???

8. They hire people

No one actually paints the interior of their house four times a year. If they change colors that often, they aren’t doing the work themselves.

Had a neighbor that was always - always- changing something on his perfectly fabulous house. He finally sold and moved away. I’m guessing the tradespeople were sad.
