Our carefully curated palette of 132 shades, with an intriguing story behind each colour name, will help you to choose colours you love for your home.
Why Choose Blue?
Despite their reputation, the blues always make us smile. From deep, dark and delicious tones to light, bright and breezy hues, there are blues for every occasion. Whether you have a country cottage or industrial loft, period property or new build, a blue colour scheme will be right at home.
You may have heard to avoid blues in a north-facing space and while it’s true, this light does bring out cool, blue undertones, that doesn’t make it wrong. In these situations, your blue will simply look bluer. It’s a consideration, not a rule.

We have several shades that are so soft and subtle , they’re almost neutral, for example , and . The blues in our palette have an array of subtle undertones to create depth, character and complexity — some are true blues, while others seem to shift between shades depending on the light.

How to Create a Blue Colour Scheme
Choosing colours is both the joy — and the challenge — of decorating. You could layer multiple shades of blue for a relaxed scheme, keep it classic with a complementary white or go for a bolder, contrasting colour. Another option is to keep things simple and colour drench, which works particularly well with dark blues in bedrooms, snugs and spaces you use in the evening.
To help spark your imagination, we asked our in-house experts Joa Studholme and Patrick O’Donnell to share three of their favourite blue scheme suggestions.
