Blue-green dreams 

Blue-toned green is perfect for a mood-boosting makeover, as this tropical shade offers soothing oceanic vibes. Dusky blue-green Coastal Blue works perfectly when contrasted with pops of warm yellow paint, funky prints and floral décor. Alternatively, a crisp, clean white and natural textures will create an understated background for this striking shade.

Dark and moody

A majestic blue with green undertones, Evening Blue pairs beautifully with warm mustard Dijon or copper accents to bring warmth to the shade. For the ultimate colour drench, deep navy Odyssey will seamlessly saturate walls and woodwork with its rich intensity, for a cosy, cocooning room.

Soft and smoky

Earthy blues are bang on trend, capturing the decadence of a rich blue and grounding it with a grey undertone. Our inky Blueprint creates an eye-catching look without consuming the whole room, while a smoky blue-green like Deep Sea instantly commands a space. Pair with half wall panelling and grand staircases for a moody, modern take on a regal look.

Limewash looks

Soothing blues look great with the gentle, textured effect of limewash. Limewash No. 008 is a cool grey toned blue that's perfect for a sense of understated flair, while rich and vibrant blue No. 717 makes the perfect feature wall with its intense, jewel toned elegance.
