Inspiration...Cobalt Blue at The Little Door Next Door

One of our favorite places to enjoy a cup of coffee in Los Angeles is The Little Door Next Door. Aside from great food and drink (the Americano is awesome!), we enjoy the bright cobalt blue painted walls. This vibrant color adds depth to the space and makes it feel bigger. This pretty color blue has popped up quite a bit in the LA house tours too. Check out a few after the jump...

The bright blue on Sam's baclony in House Tour: Sam’s Sydney Simplicity

The blue in the kitchen makes a statement in House Tour: Stephanie & Bob's SilverRidge Sanctuary

The blue of this small vase in House Tour: Vanessa's Sun Filled Bungalow adds a pop of color in the space.

A collection of blue glass in House Tour: Marisa’s Mid-Century Meets Vintage Condo.

The blue books in LA House Tour: Danielle & Lakshan's Comfy Modern colorized bookcase add color accents.

Lovely. It's one of those colors that are great in a hot climate. But I don't think it would work well here in the frozen north, alas.

Love the cobalt blue.

Vehemently don't agree with the concept of decorating by grouping books by color.

Novel concept: Read books. Then group books by meaning.

A pretty color in theory, but I couldn't live with it.

it's "Little Next Door"

I'm so happy that my two loves are emerged into one. LND & AT!
