Blue is the color of the sky and sea and symbolizes loyalty, faith, truth, and heaven.  It produces a calming effect and evokes a sense of ease and tranquility.  The shades of blue also have meanings:  light blue is considered to be more feminine and symbolizes healing, understanding and delicacy, whereas dark blue is masculine and represents power, integrity and sensibility.  Whichever blue you gravitate towards, one can always expect a space that is serene and pulled together.


 

So, for your inspiration, here’s a sampling of beautiful rooms from pale sky and peacock blue to royal and navy blue…enjoy!

  7. I have always loved blue – it never seems to go out of style, and as summer approaches, I love to give my home a bit of coastal style by switching out my wintry fabrics and adding some blue and white pillows and linens.

  8. I love the contrast with the black, great roundup of inspiration.

    I’ve been searching for blue curtains (solid or with a design) for my living room for months now. Any suggestions on where to look for some? I’m open to the material, my living room is more modern, and I don’t want a lining. The color I’m looking for is about the same color as the wall shown in image 26 from houseandhome.com with the circle leaf mirrors.
    Thanks!

  10. What a great collection of images!! I love blue and white.

  19. I had picked up a color swatch at Lowes for “Morning Fog” which is a pale blue. Sometime later I was at my mom’s and she had the same swatch. We both have our master bedrooms painted in it. I’m getting ready to move to Canada and will be painting my bedroom with Morning Fog again. Love, love, love it!!!
