As the seasons change and trends come and go, so does my admiration
for unique colors. Even with my fickle ways, there is still an old flame
that seems everlasting: indigo. The hue, derived from a plant called
Indigofera, grew in popularity with its use in denim. Feng Shui says the
deep color creates tranquility and relaxation. Here are some examples
of incorporating this mysterious and transcendental color into your
home.
This high-gloss paint on the wall reflects the lighting and adds life
to this over-sized media room. The client wanted to display his
autographed records and so using a dark indigo color frames the pieces
very well. And you cant miss the desk! Which was finished off with car
paint for that super glossy look!
This blue cabinet-like vanity caught my eye. The masculinity of the
blue pops the white counter tops and adds an interesting contrast with
the pieces feminine nature. Also, the blue is a nice middle ground
between the large mirror and wood floor.
Splashes of indigo add life to any white room. Here, the inclusion of
blue casts a pleasant nautical touch to this casual sitting area.
Finding the perfect fabric to accent your home cant be hard but you can
find lots of options at Kravet Fabrics. (Here is a link:

Love this classic pairing of deep blues and burnt yellows. The solid
couch allows you to add pattern in both the rug and the drapes. And who
doesnt love this zig-zag indigo and white area rug.
Here we find that elegance meets eclectic. The indigo chandelier is a
fantastic way to spice up your living room that can seem to appear too
static.
Don’t forget about the ceiling, or how some like to refer to it as
the 5th wall. The textured indigo wall paper adds a sophisticated touch
to this fresh dining room.
I could curl up in this cozy bedroom and feel perfectly relaxed. Here
the designer layered different hues to blue to complete the look. The
crisp white accents make this room look very tailored.
Love the ottoman and the gold and blue paring.
High-gloss indigo tiles bring out the best of this space in this open
kitchen. The color is speckless and clean and a god-send for your
kitchen.
