Beyond the philosophical, this hue offers sophistication and strength. Pairing blue with pale or neutral colors mute its effect and can enhance and add prominence to other accessories and furniture in the room.

There is no doubt that when used as the main color, this hue will dominate, and it is bold, but as you can see, it can also be very calming in a room.

Odds are, most people will find the accent walls, furniture, or art pieces, as their uses for this classic, rich blue in their home. A great piece such as a stand-out chair will fill a room and sometimes even complete it. There are so many ways to add this color to an existing color scheme.

Here are some great designs from  Steelyard,  Jonathan Rachman Design, and  The House of Rohl.

So, if you’ve been considering adding blue in your home, now is the time. It will be easy to find new furnishings, rugs, fabrics, and more, in this exceptional color. After all, a “classic blue” expands our thinking, so have fun with it!
