*** NEED HELP; what colours go together REALLY WELL? ***?

Question

Gonna paint my room... what colour(s) goes well with white and light(ish) blue?

White is for the ceiling, blue is for some of the walls.

Any suggestions?

PS: I'll give best answer to the person who answers best, not who says the colour scheme I'd like the most.

Answer 1

maybe a light orange

Answer 2

well i can sure tell you colors not to put with blue...(without it looking fruity! lol)

orange

red

yellow

pink

and i think some good colors would be a darker blue with it or maybe a green... idk those are just my thoughts

Answer 3

Red white and blue! USA USA USA

Answer 4

i dont think orange and red and fruity colors are the way to go... unless u want something really tacky

personally i dont think id like walking into a room with blue walls and orange bed sheets lol

by the way blue and white paint arent bad colors to be stuck with if u know how to decorate a room properly

if ur a young adult/ older teen - or soemthing like that lol... a mature look is better and you wont grow out of it right away:

stay with colors that are close to the blue

i would do a blue, black and grey theme

they would look great... and if u put a few really white items in there - they would really give a contrast without a wild color.

but if u would rather a color or something "fun"    safest bet would be greens and blues tied together with white

you can buy bed covers that have blue and green in them ...

good luck :)

Answer 5

Orange or tangerine and light blue, some greens like grass green. You could also do the ceiling light blue this will make your ceiling feel taller. Lots of designers use this trick. You could do all light blue walls and a big bold orange stripe horizontal or green on a wall or two. Or even a stencil that you like, kind of a retro design. You could also do a wall hanging on one wall instead of paint. Like this...http://images.google.com/images?um=1&hl=...

Answer 6

i think that red white and black go together really well.

Answer 7

i would say maybe yellow, or orange, if you want something bright!

Answer 8

Try to get the AFFINITY COLOR deck from Benjamin Moore.  You can pick any three colors on the deck and they will look great together.  You can also go here: http://www.sherwin.com/visualizer/ to paint a room with different colors that go together.

Have fun and good luck!

the style is traditional, but originally I wanted to do a simplified rococo style room:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rococo

Answer 10

I popped blue & white into the Behr Paint online color visualizer, and they returned the following coordinating colors:

"cool dusk" (# 550F-4) - a darker blue

"spirited green" (# 470C-3) - a mint green

"rocky mountain sky" (# 720E-3) - a gray

"luminary" (# 270A-3) - an orange

Check it out. Just choose the shades of blue & white that you want, and then ask it to coordinate. It will give you eigth possible color palettes.

Answer 11

Green, red and orange would go great together!

I have light blue and light green striped walls, but you might like something different.

I think royal blue and dark orange would go good together too..

And red and blue are classic together.

Good luck choosing.. and painting :]
