Blue Mood

Blue&WhiteI recently visited a local, not-to be mentioned-in-this-blogpost showcase house. Although blues were a strong color theme throughout the house, they were often paired with insipid pinks, granny florals and other current design trends that diluted the crisp, dramatic impact that blues can really make.

Blues remind us of sky and sea so they are often showcased in beach houses. Or, when blue and white Chinoiserie is used, for example, blue can remind us of upper crust English drawing rooms or swanky Palm Beach manses.

But blues can feel decidedly modern as well especially when they are used in new and unexpected ways. On Madison has assembled a collage of blue and white, re-defined with modern interpretations. Bye bye, boring blues.
