What color walls would go good with blue carpet for a boy's bedroom?

Question

Not like a little boy, rather a 17 year old boy.

Answer 1

Depending on the shade of blue, a light Gray, a creamy yellow (especially if the room is dark), tan, light blue and of course, white!  You can always do an accent wall in a different color too!  If you use light gray, a darker gray for the accent wall, yellow or light blue would go with a darker blue, tan could go with a slightly darker tan.  Depends on the furniture also.

Answer 2

play around with the Sherwin Williams color visualizer to find something that you like. It is the best paint visualizer on the web, imho. I like how their color palette is laid out, I like that you can search by color family & color name, the "painted" rooms look the most realistic, and it suggests coordinating color schemes. You can literally spend hours:

I think it would look way cool if you paint your room a dark gray called "pewter goblet" (# 7195) from their SandScapes faux finish collection.  The paint has the texture of sand, so it will add an interesting element to the room.

Answer 3

My son had a steel-gray (blue-ish gray) color on his walls

and went well with his black and chrome-silver furniture.

Answer 4

mint green

Answer 5

I'm having the same trouble not knowing at the minute too. I also have a blue carpet and I'm trying to repaint my room - I think depending on the blue carpet shade a chocolate brown and earthy neutral colours like sandy, tan etc would work okay :)

Answer 6

like a grayish color or another shade of blue

Answer 7

light blue with some patterns of the same blue of the carpet

Answer 8

bluish in shade as well, depending on the shade of the carpet also, you can go to b&q or homebase to compare paint colors, bring a sample of the carpet if you have any.
