Blues

With its varied tones, blue can feel both serene and dramatic. It links us to our surroundings, recalling the inky sea or a cloudless sky. “We enjoy being enveloped in it,” says Dana Bergman Falcione of Bergman Vass. Her partner, Erica Vassalotti, agrees: “The color grounds us.”

Nearly black, Hale Navy by Benjamin Moore creates depth. In this kitchen, it contrasts with the white accents and boosts the home's overall appeal.

Bergman Vass drenched this bunk room in De Nimes from Farrow & Ball. Decadent yet down to earth, it is as stylish and practical as the French workwear that inspired it.

Newburg Green by Benjamin Moore is a teal chameleon that shifts with the light—a fact designer Jon Powell used to his advantage in this windowed dining room.

Greens

“Colors seen so prominently in nature are timeless,” says Kristen Peña of K Interiors. Verdant shades are serene but exciting, creating a versatile background for gathering spaces such as kitchens and living rooms.

Friendly and warm, Green Onyx by Sherwin-Williams adds freshness to this dining room by Raili Clasen. The muted moss tone reads like a neutral.
