Create a calm BEDROOM

Relaxed and easy to live with, soft blue is a go-to shade for restful rooms

- 

1 CHECK 18 LIGHT LEVELS

Blues can vary, depending on the light, so before you settle on a shade, work out which way the light falls in your room. Maximise the feeling of space in a bright room by choosing a softer tone, like chambray, or in rooms with little natural light, embrace the darkness with a moodier indigo blue.
