Powder Blue creates a sense of tranquility and refined sophistication in any interior, adding that subtle splash of colour, whether to a whole room or just used as an accent. Powder blue is a fresh soothing hue, creating a calm and serene ambience; traditionally associated as a baby’s room colour, the powder blue hue is actually hugely versatile, perfect for use in the kitchen, bedroom, bathroom or hall, and even more beautiful on your woodwork.

It marries wonderfully with warm whites, grey, green, yellow, terracotta, pink, and light/rich woods. Its the perfect backdrop to let bold colours shine and works surprisingly well with gold/silver metallics, and even black.

Check out this gorgeous pastel hue in 5 different spaces below:

1. Hallways

You can simply achieve the look by painting your front door, kitchen cabinets, or adding powder blue dining chairs. Or go all out and paint that bedroom in the full hue, the colour is so subtle that its not just for feature walls, do the whole space or even create a division border half way up the wall (as seen above).

2. Bedrooms

Blue is a colour associated with feelings of peacefulness, and tranquility. Often misjudged as being cold, but remember  it won’t be the only colour contributing a feeling to the space,  it should  be paired up with warm lighting, multiple textures and pattern, with pops of warm accent colours.

3. Kitchens

4. Living Rooms

5. Bathrooms

6. Use on Woodwork or Upcycle Any Item
