Baby Blue Light Blue Bedroom
Heather Hilliard
Blue. Even the word itself feels full and soft, like an embrace or a deep breath. Visually, of course, it's even more powerful. "That this blue exists makes my life a remarkable one, just to have seen it. To have seen such beautiful things," mused Maggie Nelson. "We love to contemplate blue, not because it advances to us, but because it draws us after it," said Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. "The world is blue at its edges and in its depths. This blue is the light that got lost," echoed Rebecca Solnit. And just as this color has enchanted writers, artists, philosophers, and scientists for centuries, it's also the most popular choice for interior design. From living rooms to bedrooms, kitchens, powder rooms, and beyond, the 40 spaces ahead might inspire you to douse your home in a thousand leagues of blue.

Play With Shapes
Just looking at a blue room can slow your pace and calm you down. A monochrome palette allows us to focus on the incredible interior architecture and dramatic statement pieces in this living room designed by Robson Rak. The soothing tones and bulbous shapes throughout, from the marble side table to the bubble pendant light and rounded sofa, make it both understated and bold.

Add Blue Details
Keep everything neutral and then opt for soft blue accents. Here, Cathy Kincaid painted the bed frame and used decorative pillows for a splash of blue. we love the contrast between the high-end, traditional monogramed bedding, an orate mirror, full drapes, and a canopy bed against the unexpectedly cheeky throw pillow.

Mix Materials
Interior designer Shaun Smith's New Orleans bathroom should be your blueprint for decorating with blue. He worked around the retro tiled wall by choosing an all-blue color palette punctuated by rattan pieces. Not only is it a good idea to keep wallpaper out of splashing range, but it can also cut your cost in half if you only buy enough for half the square footage.

Ground the Space
Color stretches all the way up to the high rafters in this living room designed by Thomas Jayne and William Cullum. As you can see in the mirror, the color of these walls changes depending on the way the light hits it, shifting between sharp mint green and soft sea foam green. The red and blue work nicely, too, grounding the sharp blue-green paint. To elongate your already tall ceilings, hang a pendant light high above the sitting area.

Get Ocean-Inspired
Blue is one of those colors that feels accessible—it's bold enough to feel like you're taking serious risks, but still classic. Two different blue-green hues give a Florida kitchen an elegant beach vibe. Brass lanterns keep it from feeling too coastal.
