apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

I enjoy this color combo too. I used it in a basement bathroom in my old house last year:

Haha! I've been having a hate affair with Pacific Blue for the last 18 years! It's the colour they've painted the cast iron parts on my building in NYC, a big red brick carriage garage from the early 1900's. I think it's the teal element in the Pacific Blue that just drives me up the wall; I find it garish and vulgar. The Puck Building, an NYC landmark, has the same paint scheme as mine, and it also makes me wince every time I see it.

I think the grey and Pacific Blue are much better together; the lower photograph on this page is very beautiful, more for the grey than for the blue.

Thanks for teaching me "Pacific Blue" - it's so much easier to hate when you have a name for your hatred!

To end on a positive note: compared to my hatred for teal, my hatred for Pacific Blue almost reads as "love"!

This color combo is soooooo Seattle late 80s. Gross.

I absolutely love this!
