Dazzling Blue gets Nautical!

The Pantone colour for 2014 is Dazzling Blue and what better way to use it than to start with a theme. 


Dazzling Blue on the walls is balanced with lots of White!

Personally, when I think of the colour blue I imagine a relaxing breeze coming off of the ocean instantly soothing the soul; with this inspiration as my k
ick off I've decided a nautical theme is ideal with this palette.

When most people think nautical they imagine sail boats, helms, anchors and of course a beautiful blue. Creating this look doesn’t necessarily require you to add anchors to every pillow and can be incorporated much more simply. For example the room bellow features subtle elements that combine to create a relaxing atmosphere.

Get this look by incorporating geometric patterns, lots of stripes, wood elements and of course lots of blue! If you are looking to add a little pizazz to your space look for ways to add yellow elements to the décor.  Victoria Seguin
