Silver Blueberry

PPG1163-5

Silver Blueberry is a muted denim blue with enough gray to ground it. The grounding comes from gray. Built-ins, a bedroom, or a mudroom wall suit blue that needs restraint.

Across the room, it has enough depth to feel cozy but not navy-dark. Natural oak with creamy trim keeps it approachable. Too much cool gray nearby can make the space feel flat, so add texture or warmer accents.
