With the difference in shades of blue, designers can impart many ideas to the homeowner. While some revere hushed shades of blue that conjure up visions of sea and sky, others prefer more attention-getting shades—think: royal blue and cerulean—that evoke nautical notes, especially when paired with snippets of bright white. And let’s not forget the moodiest iterations of all: indigo and navy. Both hues pair effortlessly with neutrals like cognac (not to mention, quasi-neutrals like leopard), and have a knack for making even basics like plain white bedding look magnificently richer. Let’s see something we can do with blue in the bedroom.

14. Cozy in Cobalt
MICHAEL ALAN KASKEL
Love blue but love warmth too. Opt cobalt color for walls and then use beige and white for your bed. On the other hand, it also accentuates the leopard pattern of throw pillows.
