Building a Palette With Tranquil Blue

• Mustard or tan accents - for a pop of warm contrast.
• Natural oak or walnut - to warm up the cool tone.
• Soft grey - for a calm, tonal scheme through the home.

Threading one pairing from space to space keeps everything looking deliberate.

Light and the Right Finish

In different light: Tranquil Blue keeps its crisp, cool look in daylight and turns a little softer under warm bulbs.

Best finish: A matt finish looks smooth and modern in living rooms and bedrooms; use a washable soft-sheen in kitchens, bathrooms and hallways.

Worth Knowing

Check a tester patch morning and evening, as blue shifts with the light in a room. Pale tones cover easily; just keep a little paint back for scuffs in busy spots.
