Light blues bring an air of tranquillity to any space. This hue is particularly popular in bathrooms and bedrooms thanks to its brightening and calming qualities. From the soft undertones of duck egg blue to peaceful pastel blue shades, there's a hue to suit every taste. Light blue paint is the ideal way to try out a cool-toned palette, offering a more subtle approach than deeper shades. For a neutral-leaning option, consider grey blue paint.

Navy blue paint brings elegance and depth to any room. This rich hue works particularly well in entertaining spaces like dining rooms and living rooms, or in bedrooms for a cosy retreat. No matter which colour of navy blue you prefer – from dark blue-black to mid-toned grey-blues – it pairs exceptionally well with metallic accents and crisp whites for a striking contrast.

What other colours go with blue?

Blue harmonises beautifully with a diverse range of colours, whether you prefer subtle, serene schemes or bold, dramatic contrasts. Try pairing blue with the following:
 

• Neutrals. For a fresh, uplifting look, incorporate blue with crisp white or soft cream tones to create an airy coastal feel, perfect for bathrooms and bedrooms. Embrace a cool-toned colour scheme of grey and blue to bring a contemporary feel to living rooms or home offices.
  
  
• Warm shades. Balance warm and cool tones with a blue and orange colour palette. Soft terracotta hues complement most shades of blue, while a bright tangerine colour can create a bold contrast. Alternatively, a blue and pink colour scheme with pale blush tones or vibrant fuchsia creates a striking Mediterranean-inspired design.
  
  
• Nature-inspired hues. Blue and green colours complement each other, evoking nature’s colour palette. Consider pairing teal blue with sage green or navy with deep emerald green.

What are some of the warmest blues?

While blue is traditionally cool, certain shades can create a warm, inviting feel in cosy spaces like living rooms and bedrooms. Some of our favourite warm blue colours include:
 

• Teal and turquoise blues. The green undertones add natural warmth – perfect for combining blue's calming properties with added vibrancy.
  
  
• Deep blues with purple or indigo undertones. The warmth of purple-leaning blues helps create intimate, enveloping spaces.

What effect does blue paint have on a room?

Blue paint is known for its calming properties, making it ideal for bedrooms, bathrooms and relaxation spaces. Visually, blue makes walls appear to recede, creating a sense of space and making it an excellent choice for smaller rooms.

Different shades create distinct moods: choose deep blues for intimacy and sophistication, mid-tone grey-blues for a contemporary feel, and pale blues for a serene and brightening effect. Blue's strong associations with water and sky connect your interior to nature, enhancing this colour’s calming and rejuvenating feel.
