We’ve got the summer blues — and I couldn’t be happier about it. While we have always loved blue decor, this summer has taken our passion for blue hues to new heights. With lovely shades for every room and occasion, blue is having its time in the sun. French blue, classic cobalt and navy have captured our attention for summer 2021 and we can’t get enough of them.
French blue is a fresh colour that can work with any style in your home. With its grey undertones and crisp finish, it can serve as either a neutral or a statement colour. What I love most about this soft and refreshing shade is that it goes with anything. Perfect for traditionalists, but also to those who want to put a unique spin on traditional decorating styles (looking at you, grandmillenials!).
Switching gears into a bright and dynamic colour, classic cobalt is a bold and beautiful blue for summer 2021. Cobalt can be found in some of our favourite go-to accessories, like chinoiserie pieces, but can easily be taken to the next level. With limitless fabrics and wall coverings incorporating this hue, it is easy to keep adding it to your spaces.
Navy blue is another favourite this summer season (and, well, every season for us). While you might be skeptical of bringing a dark hue into your home during these hot months, take another look. Navy is a sophisticated and classic colour that can stand alone in your spaces or enhance the beauty of a wide range of accent colours. We love pairing navy with anything from zesty orange to sage green to illuminating yellow. Navy and white can bring to mind nautical adventures while a bit of red can have you ready for the patriotic holidays of the season. This versatile colour is wonderful for poolside furniture and sweet sunroom furnishings. Whether adding a touch through pillows or going all in with paint colour on the walls, it is sure to bring a stunning ambience to your spaces.
