While blue may be one of the most versatile hues for the home, light blue paint colors can be hard to get right. The wrong shade in the wrong light can make a space feel cold and clinical, instead of airy and tranquil.
But that shouldn't make you shy away from the shade. 'Light blue paint colors are a great transition from grays and neutrals if you are looking to bring a subtle touch of color into a space,' says Arianna Barone, a color marketing manager for Benjamin Moore paints. 'For people who typically stay within a neutral color palette, light blue paints can be extremely versatile without overwhelming a room.'
