Blue is my favorite color to decorate with. Always has, likely it always will. Maybe it’s because we are surrounded by blue in nature – be it the sky or the sea. There is something so soothing, calming and welcoming about it in the home. And there are so many amazing blue paint colors to choose from these days so narrowing down the perfect hue can be a challenge. Luckily, I have some experience in the paint selection process, so please enjoy a roundup of my favorite blues in a dark + moody persuasion.
BM Gentleman’s Grey. I used this in a client’s kitchen a few years back. It’s a deep blue that can lean a bit black and feels polished and modern.
SW Aquamarined This color is rich, bold and intense. We used this in our dining room refresh and it’s VERY GOOD.
Farrow & Ball Stiffkey Blue Dark inky blue goodness. This color is a favorite across the internet and in our home too. We used this in our son Wyatt’s room.
SW Distance A lovely faded blue-ish gray that’s clean and simple.
SW Granite Peak Another great grey/blue option.
BM New York State of Mind A classic, elegant and rich blue.
BM Water’s Edge This is a beautiful, slightly muted green/blue that would look great in any style of home.
Farrow & Ball De Nimes This color is earthy and rich and looks excellent paired next to matte black.
Farrow & Ball Hague Blue Deep, dark and almost black. I love this color which is featured prominently in our home gym.
I hope you have enjoyed this little roundup!
