Color Combo: Blue and Black

With all the black walls floating around AT, we thought we'd pull together a dramatic color combo that we rarely see: blue and black. It's a combination that can come off as romantic and moody or crisp and elegant, depending on the shades you choose and whether or not you balance the combo with a lighter neutral.

I want that fourth one down to be my bedroom - I can't get enough blue.

Wow... soothing, but dark and moody. Love it!

I also dig the Colorama scheme - this will go on the inspiration board for when/if I move to New Orleans... dramatic and colorful. Maybe not a white couch with a black cat, though!

I love that blue and black are in at the moment. I can remember when that color combo was a fashion no-no, but it looks so chic.
