Inspire Confidence and Serenity with Navy

Dramatic navy blue has emerged as an extraordinarily popular color. Named for the dark blue uniforms of the British Royal Navy, this rich, dark blue is on trend. Navy belongs to the “cool” color families, but it can also be used as a neutral. Some hues look more black than blue. Regardless of whether your choice of navy leans more towards blue or black, this color is strong and connotes a sense of stability, intelligence power, and confidence. It is always sophisticated and elegant.

Navy is the perfect color for you to confidently explore deep, strong hues in your space. There are innumerable design applications for this versatile color. It brings elegance to your formal dining room, drama to a powder room and a sense of order or serenity to a child’s room. It is gender-neutral and on-trend for any room in your home. Below are two of our favorite color combinations. Benjamin Moore’s Hale Navy for wall surfaces and Icicle for trim make a beautiful statement in any room. From the Sherwin Williams palette, Rainstorm and Snowbound pair up gorgeously.

In this young girl’s bedroom we used Regal Select by Benjamin Moore. We painted a stylish contrast of a soft, mellow gray and deep, rich navy. Used as an accent, navy doesn’t overpower the room, but brings a unique and serene feel to the space.

Navy is versatile and can elicit different emotions in different spaces. When we see navy, we think of intelligence, reliability, calm, confidence, and order. It works well with nautical or beach themes, as well as stately or relaxed spaces. This robust blue will not look outdated or go out of style. It is a classic, yet timeless color.
