My guy would like to paint his new apartment bedroom blue...
Is there a recommended shade of blue for a male bedroom? I have always painted with warmer colors so I feel lost choosing the right blue for a bedroom...
Opinions/suggestions please
even if you don't know a specific paint name just help me out lighter/darker more grey/less grey more green/ less green???
Cheap Monday
Desigual
CAFe'NOIR
I really like rich, dark blues but I know dark colors make a room look small. So, I dunno.
1paint one wall navy (preferrably the back wall, or the wall with his bed) and the others a more grey-blue
2I like Ski's idea. I like that blue.

3I'd do a grayish-blue.

4my boyfriend is 26 and his room is a really bright blue color. i couldnt find the exact color online but it looks like one of the shades in your picture (similar to the 6th one down on the far left). It's really a great color.

5I like the swatches closest to the A (far left) and would go with a blue with grey tones...either the top or 3rd down
6i also agree with hanako...both of those are gorgeous colors, and as kiwitwist mentioned, the lighter the color, the bigger the room looks.

7we just paint our master a blueish gray last fall and love it.
8I'd love to see a snap of the room as it is now but, just off the cuff, I'd say go with a more subdued tone of grayish-blue. Cream woodwork. Brown furniture. Natural/unvarnished flooring. Celery-corriander accents or a bit of burnt orange would add punch.
9Aw thank you so much for all of your ideas!! I love the idea of a greyish blue, but now he has switched his mind to green
I don't know if any of you might have some advice for green? If not
I think I will be ok since it's a warmer color and that's what I am used to painting... Thanks again everyone! I will be sure to post before and after pictures regardless what color he ends
up with
10i'm looking forward to the final product!
