Why deep blue works
Blue is a receding color, so a deep shade gives a room depth and makes warm woods and brass look richer. It feels calm but not boring, and it is especially flattering for dining rooms, studies and bedrooms. See how to use blue at home for more.
How to style it
- Pair with natural oak or dark walnut; wood warms the blue.
- Bring in linen and other pale, natural textures for contrast. Blue Hour is built on exactly this.
- Use warm light bulbs so the blue stays inviting after dark.
What to watch for
In a small, dim room a saturated blue can feel closed-in. Try it on one wall or in a nook first, and sample it in the room before committing.
