In response to 72% of Brits admitting that gray spaces leave them feeling "flat and uninspired," [7UP](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/7up-pink-shandy) is bringing color to the streets with the Pink Refresh Window. Created to promote the 7UP [Pink Lemonade](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/7up-pink-lemonade), playful pink murals and [pop-up sampling windows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aperol-festive-spritz-window) are coming to London, Liverpool, and Manchester for a short time this summer.

At the feel-good Pink Refresh Window, people can enjoy a complimentary taste of 7UP Pink Lemonade and pick up exclusive merchandise while supplies last. Additionally, the activation promises to uplift the spirits of urban dwellers, as the vibrant splash of color quietly makes the city feel just a little bit brighter.

As part of the study, pink was revealed to be the color that Gen Z respondents felt lifted their spirits the most.

## Key Themes

### What Makes This Trend Stand Out

- **Colorful Urban Interventions:** Temporary mural installations and vibrant pop-up experiences are revitalizing drab city spaces, offering brands new ways to interact with urban audiences.
- **Gen Z Color Psychology:** Brands are leveraging the psychological effects of color, particularly pink, to engage younger demographics and enhance emotional connections.
- **Experiential Marketing:** Live sampling events and interactive brand engagements are transforming passive marketing efforts into memorable consumer experiences.

### Sectors Adopting This

- **Beverage Industry:** By utilizing engaging physical touchpoints, beverage companies are finding innovative methods to differentiate their products and build customer loyalty.
- **Outdoor Advertising:** Brands are shifting from static billboards to dynamic, colorful installations that attract consumer attention on the streets.
- **Urban Planning:** Collaborations with brands to introduce temporary art installations can revitalize public spaces and improve community well-being.
