How to use and style blue in home interiors?
Using blue in home interiors can create a serene, calming, and stylish environment. Sky blue, in particular, is versatile and works well in various spaces. Let's explore how to incorporate the sky blue products from the collection you shared into different parts of your home:
1. Living Room
- Sky Blue Throw or Blanket: Drape a sky blue throw over a neutral-coloured sofa (like grey, beige, or white) to add a pop of colour and comfort. This works especially well with textured throws, adding both visual and tactile interest.
- Cushions: Mix and match sky blue cushions with others in complementary colours like navy, white, or even soft yellows. These cushions can add depth to your seating area and make it feel more inviting.
- Wall Art or Decor: If the collection includes sky blue wall art or decor items, use them as focal points on a white or light grey wall. This can tie the room together and create a cohesive colour scheme.
- TV Stand: Add a pop of colour to the focal point in your room with a sky blue TV Stand. Sky blue compliments your black or silver TV and our Oxford Storage units provide a great space to keep your consoles, magazines and more tidy.
2. Bedroom
- Bedding: If sky blue bedding is available, it can be a wonderful choice to create a calm and restful atmosphere. Pair it with crisp white sheets and perhaps a darker blue or patterned throw for contrast.
- Curtains: Sky blue curtains can soften the natural light in the room, creating a tranquil environment. If your walls are a neutral tone, these curtains can add a gentle splash of colour without overwhelming the space.
- Rugs: A sky blue rug can anchor the room, especially if you have light or neutral flooring. It adds warmth and ties in other blue accents.
- Furniture: Whether it be a row of wardrobes in sky blue or a set of drawers, this would be a great way to create a relaxed feel to a space whilst keeping 'on colour'.
3. Home Office
- Desk Accessories: Sky blue organisers, pencil holders, or even a desk lamp can brighten your workspace. This colour is known to enhance concentration and productivity, making it ideal for a home office setting.
- Chair Cushions: If you have a hard or uncomfortable office chair, a sky blue cushion can add both comfort and style. Pair it with other blue accents for a cohesive look.
- Wall Paint: If you’re considering painting a feature wall in your home office, a soft sky blue could be the perfect choice. It’s not too bold, but it adds personality to the space.
4. Bathroom
- Towels and Mats: Sky blue towels and bath mats can make your bathroom feel like a spa. Pair them with white or light grey fixtures for a clean, fresh look.
- Storage Baskets: Sky blue storage baskets can add a touch of colour to your bathroom while helping to keep it organised. Use them for towels, toiletries, or even as decorative elements.
5. Kitchen and Dining Area
- Kitchenware: Sky blue plates, bowls, or mugs can create a bright and cheerful table setting. Mix them with white or neutral tableware for a balanced look.
- Small Appliances: If any small appliances like toasters or kettles are available in sky blue, they can serve as stylish statement pieces on your countertop.
- Table Linens: Sky blue tablecloths, napkins, or placemats can bring a fresh and airy feel to your dining area. Pair them with simple white or natural wood dining sets.
General Tips:
- Pairing with Neutrals: Sky blue pairs beautifully with neutrals like white, gray, beige, or taupe. This allows the blue to stand out without overwhelming the space.
- Natural Materials: Consider pairing sky blue items with natural materials like wood, rattan, or linen to create a relaxed, beachy vibe.
- Layering Shades: Don’t be afraid to layer different shades of blue in a room. Sky blue can be the star, with darker or lighter blues providing depth.
By incorporating these products into your home, you can create a cohesive and serene environment that showcases the versatility and beauty of sky blue.
