Aqua Colors

Clients tend to call any bright blue green Aqua, but the sample board tells the truth. Aqua sits near clean cyan with more green than sky blue, showing up in pool baths, kids rooms, tile, doors, and playful furniture.

Using aqua in your home

Aqua needs restraint around it. Use it in bathrooms, laundry rooms, playrooms, porch furniture, or a single cabinet with white, black, pale oak, sand, or coral. North light sharpens the blue side. South light makes it brighter and more tropical. Restraint helps. On every wall, aqua can bounce color onto faces and feel less calm than expected.
