An ode to azul.

By Hadley Mendelsohn

Thomas Loof

Blue. Even the word itself feels full and soft, like an embrace or a deep breath. Visually, of course, it's even more powerful. Writers have been waxing poetic about the color for eons: "We love to contemplate blue, not because it advances to us, but because it draws us after it," said 18th-century playwright Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. Contemporary novelists go on and on about it too: "That this blue exists makes my life a remarkable one, just to have seen it. To have seen such beautiful things," muses poet Maggie Nelson. "The world is blue at its edges and in its depths. This blue is the light that got lost," echoes writer Rebecca Solnit.

Just as this color has enchanted writers, artists, philosophers, and scientists for centuries, it's also the most popular choice for interior designers. From living rooms to bedrooms, kitchens, powder rooms, and beyond, the 45 blue rooms ahead might inspire you to douse your home in this wholly calming, restorative color.

Play With Shapes

Just looking at a blue room can slow your pace and calm you down. A monochrome palette allows us to focus on the incredible interior architecture and dramatic statement pieces in this living room designed by Robson Rak. The soothing tones and shapes, from the marble side table to the bubble pendant light and rounded sofa, make it both understated and bold.

Add Blue Details

Keep everything neutral and then opt for soft blue accents. Here, Cathy Kincaid painted the bed frame and used decorative pillows for a splash of blue. We love the contrast between the high-end, traditional monogrammed bedding, an orate mirror, full drapes, and a canopy bed against the unexpectedly cheeky throw pillow.

Mix In Earth Tones

Designer Nanette Brown opted for a moody color palette in this New York City living room. The dark blue painted walls are a fun surprise, especially when paired with rich chocolate brown fabric and brass accents.

Include Eye-Popping Accents

Setting the tone for the rest home in the entryway is mission critical. Here, interior designer Tamsin Johnson used traditional staples and injected personality with blue accents, from the Art Deco area rug to the abstract painting and elaborate candelabrum.

Mix Materials

Interior designer Shaun Smith's New Orleans bathroom should be your blueprint for decorating with blue. He worked around the retro tiled wall by choosing an all-blue color palette punctuated by rattan pieces. Not only is it a good idea to keep wallpaper out of splashing range, but it can also cut your cost in half if you only buy enough for half the square footage.

Use a Tight Palette

In designer Ann Pyne's New York City apartment, a bright blue velvet sofa with marigold piping reflects the color scheme of the custom mural but brings a touch of soft opulence to the more clean-lined edges of the graphic pattern.

Ground the Space

Color stretches all the way up to the high rafters in this living room designed by Thomas Jayne and William Cullum. As you can see in the mirror, the color of these walls changes depending on the way the light hits it, shifting between sharp mint green and soft sea foam green. The red and blue work nicely, too, grounding the sharp blue-green paint. To elongate your already tall ceilings, hang a pendant light high above the sitting area.

50 Blue Room Decorating Ideas

Björn Wallander

Perhaps because it's the color of both the sky and the sea: In color therapy, blue tones are said to evoke clarity, pureness, and increased intuition. In the home, the shade is immediately calming and welcoming, whether used in a deep navy for a touch of drama, or a pale robin's egg in a more subtle space. Whatever shade of blue is for you—and whatever decorating style, from nautical to regal—ahead are more than 50 examples of blue-centered design that's just right.

Features of the blue color in the interior

Actual this season, blue is truly loved by many designers around the world. What are its distinguishing features?

  • The range of shades is very wide: from cold aquamarine to warm lavender. Everyone can find the right one for themselves.
  • Universal blue will suit any room: the main thing is to correctly balance it with other colors.
  • Light blue does not tire, gives a feeling of infinity of space, soothes and pacifies. Deep blue adds mystery, mystery, comfort to the interior.
  • From the point of view of Feng Shui, the color of water and sky represents purity, stability and tranquility.

Shades of blue

Shades of blue have a wide palette, which means that the interior can be either dark, which will add respectability and mystery to the atmosphere, or light, airy and refreshing.

Pictured is a rich dark blue Art Deco interior with pearl and gold accents.

Festive cornflower blue with a slight hint of purple is perfect for a child's room - for both boys and girls. In addition, bright blue goes well with natural motifs: house plants and wooden furniture. A bedroom in warm blue tones will be appreciated by creative people. If a workplace is equipped in the room, the atmosphere will enliven thinking and fill it with energy, and at night, with the lights off, it will set you up for sleep.

The photo shows a nursery with a cornflower blue wall that sets the mood for the whole room.

Turquoise color will refresh the bedroom, while delicate aquamarine will fill the room with light and coolness.

Color combinations

The blue color, in harmony with various shades, gives amazing effects in its variety. Combining it with white, it is easy to achieve airiness and spaciousness in an environment. The blue-gray combination, on the contrary, dims the light, sets it in a more serious way. A bedroom with brown decor makes a strict and solid impression.

The photo shows a blue and white interior, the airiness of which is maintained by mirrors around the perimeter of the wall.

Combining blue shades with gold, it is easy to get a magnificent bedroom with a refined and rich interior. A beige or cream room with a sky-colored finish will create a calm, sophisticated atmosphere, while a contrasting yellow and blue room, on the contrary, will give a charge of vivacity.

The photo shows a bedroom in aquamarine shades, in perfect harmony with golden elements.

One of the most win-win combinations is the blue-blue palette. Close shades successfully complement each other and do not cause dissonance.

The photo shows a blue accent wall, which is successfully set off by darker accessories: curtains, pillows, a bedspread and a chest.

Finishes

The standard use of blue in interiors is wall decoration. This color makes spacious rooms more comfortable. In a small bedroom, a dark accent wall adds depth, expanding or narrowing the room - it all depends on the area of ​​\u200b\u200bapplication. Wallpaper, paint, decorative plaster or wood panels are used for decoration.

Pictured is a bedroom with a lavender accent wall.

Blue color on the floor and ceiling is guaranteed to make the room bright and distinctive. It can unite the walls and ceiling or set off the top of the bedroom. An irregularly shaped room that is only partially painted looks especially impressive: for example, an attic with a sloping roof.

Pictured is a cornflower blue ceiling with wooden slats that follows the headboard wall.

As for the flooring, the most popular flooring for a colored bedroom is dark wood laminate or parquet, which adds solidity and solidity to the atmosphere. The blue floor is less common, as it looks very eccentric. To create it, carpet is usually used.

Selection of furniture and textiles

In modern interiors, the arrangement of white furniture on a blue background, which not only looks stylish, but also lightens the atmosphere, is a winning one. A bedroom with a brown set creates the effect of a cozy and lived-in room. Often these three shades are successfully combined in a marine style.

An excellent solution would be to use blue furniture on an identical background: a cabinet painted in the same color as the walls gives an interesting effect, as if dissolving into the surroundings. Contrasting furniture gives the opposite result: for example, a red and blue combination of an armchair or decor against a cornflower blue wall.

The photo shows a spacious bedroom in a marine style with blue and transparent furniture.

The purpose of textiles in the blue bedroom is to dilute the base and give the interior coziness and texture. A good solution would be to decorate windows with tulle, light curtains or blinds. If blue is an accent in the bedroom, pillows and curtains of the same color will come in handy here. Covers with a geometric pattern look great, as well as colored elements: yellow or orange sofa upholstery, dusty pink or silver pillows.

In the photo, the head of the bed is combined with pillows and a bedspread, and the blue carpet seems to reflect the ceiling of the same color.

Emerald, mustard or orange elements look great in combination with blue furnishings.

Pictured is a bright aqua chest of drawers and a door painted in ultramarine.

Examples of lighting and decor

When choosing a shade of blue for the bedroom, it is worth considering that in natural light the room will look different than in artificial light. Cold tones are best diluted with warm light by installing a chandelier or wall lamps with incandescent lamps.

Pictured is a classic blue room lit by a warm glow.

In a modern style, spotlights in a stretch ceiling will be appropriate, and in grandiose baroque - crystal chandeliers and sconces with floor lamps. Dark rooms decorated with garlands or stylized as a starry sky look picturesque and romantic.

Design Ideas

Let's take a look at some more interesting ideas that can be implemented using azure shades.

Pictured is a nautical-themed teen bedroom with wide blue and white stripes on the walls.

To make the rest room expressive, you can decorate the headboard with watercolors, floral prints, photo wallpapers or frescoes, and also paint only half of the wall in blue: the bottom or the top.

The photo shows an unusual room with artistic painting, the palette of which echoes the carpet on the floor.

Interior styles

An elegant neoclassical interior is a balance of expensive aesthetic accessories and textured finishes. The blue color in such a bedroom should not be intrusive: wallpaper with patterns, colored textiles and furniture are used for this.

In a laconic Scandinavian interior, indigo is most often seen - and only on an accent wall. It goes well with white furnishings and wooden elements.

Blue is not characteristic of the loft direction, but a stunning combination of rich cornflower blue details and orange bricks make the atmosphere of a rough industrial style bright and memorable.

The photo shows a neoclassical bedroom with aquamarine wallpaper with silver ornaments.

Summer Mediterranean style bedroom is a combination of wood, all kinds of patterns and shades of the seascape. The walls, finished with blue plaster, become the basis for recreating the holiday mood.

Hi-tech sleeping room is the exact opposite of the previous approach. High-tech appliances, metal elements and glass help to support this direction, and the blue tint is achieved due to the abundance of built-in lighting.

In a minimalist style, dark colors are rarely used, so the bedroom in muted blue tones looks unusual, but does not lose its conciseness. The palette here is monotonous, but this does not make the monochrome room any less attractive.

Photo gallery

Blue color can be associated with a gloomy atmosphere, so melancholy people are advised to avoid dark interiors. Everyone else can safely experiment with azure, indigo and aquamarine shades, filling your home with beauty, color and air.
