Breezy Blue Window Treatments for Serene Home Interiors

In home décor, one of the most visually important elements of design is color choice. From a rainbow of options, it can be difficult to hone in on a single hue but color selection is actually much larger than simply personal preference. The colors we use to decorate our homes can in turn affect both the look of our home and the way we feel when spending time in it. Blue is a powerful color for home interiors because of its gentle strength and existing prominence in the decorating community.

The Power of Blue

Color does more than engage our eyes, it can cause emotional and physical reactions in our bodies. Take for example the color blue. Blue is often described as a calming color; words like peaceful and serene are used in its description because that is how it makes us feel. Physically it is also affecting us by reducing pulse rate, breathing rate, and body temperature. And while blue is a prominent earth tone, it also has a polished authority about it incurring feelings of respect and reliability, which is why we also see blues used in business marketing and office spaces. In home interiors, modern designers use blue in numerous styles of interior decorating. Blues are prominent in nautical and maritime themes or designs that have an underlying natural motif. Blues are often used in rooms where we want to establish a tranquil atmosphere, like bedrooms or bathrooms. And since blue is primary and extremely popular color there is no lack of blue décor and furnishings to choose from when decorating.

Blue for Home Window Treatments
