If one of your goals for 2020 is to update the paint throughout your home, make sure to check out Pantone’s Color of the Year: Classic Blue. This shade is lighter than navy and provides a rich, timeless hue that can integrate with practically any room or aesthetic. Here are a few home painting tips for implementing this color throughout your home.

How to Update Your Home With Classic Blue

1. Sophisticate Your Kitchen Cabinets

Cabinets have taken a back seat to open shelving in the past few years, but with the resurgence of traditional design, classic cabinets with doors are also returning. Whether you are installing new cabinets or want to update your current ones, give your kitchen a touch of sophistication by painting the doors, drawers, and trim all Classic Blue. This creates a seamless look that pairs well with silver hardware and natural stone countertops. 

2. Create an Accent Wall

Classic Blue is an excellent shade when you want a specific part of a room to pop. When placed on a single wall, it adds bold flavor to a room filled with subtler shades of whites or greys. You can also paint any bookshelves, entertainment systems, or cabinets placed on the wall to create a significant contrast with the accessories in the rest of the space. 

3. Calm Your Bedroom

The bedroom should be a tranquil place where it’s easy to relax and fall asleep each night. Classic Blue is a bold shade, but it’s also deep and soothing. Painting your bedroom walls this hue will make the space both vibrant and cozy.
