Design with blue wallpaper: pros and cons, combination, selection of curtains, 80+ photos

Advantages and disadvantages

The photo shows a classic English interior with blue wallpaper with small flowers, which matches the color of the chandeliers and curtains.

How does blue color affect the overall perception of a room?

The blue color represents two elements at once - water and air. Most people really associate it with the sea and sky. Psychologists believe that the color blue can be present in the interior of a room, but only in moderate quantities. In this case, pleasant shades of the entire gamut of this color, from pale to bright turquoise, will promote harmony, the development of healthy optimism and happiness hormones.

The so-called “overdose” of blue in the interior is fraught with completely different feelings. A room in which it is used in excess can, over time, turn into the least favorite place of all household members. Such a room will depress and irritate. In especially impressionable people, it can cause outbursts of unmotivated aggression.

Types of wallpaper

Along with the correct selection of color, there is also the right decision in choosing the structure of the wallpaper. The choice is huge, so understanding this variety is not the easiest thing.

Disadvantages of metal wallpaper

Knowing the disadvantages of a particular material, you can use them profitably and neutralize the consequences. So, let's look at the disadvantages of metal wallpaper:

1. High price. Comparing products with other vinyl or paper analogues, the price is really high. However, knowing all the positive aspects, characteristics and features of metal products, it is logical that such a high-quality and durable product will have a high cost. But it’s enough to pay once and get beautiful and unique decor for many years.
2. To perform high-quality gluing, perfect surface leveling is required. The fact is that the wallpaper itself is quite thin, so any defects will look too obvious on the surface: a crack, a hole, a chip, a bulge.
3. The structure of the material does not allow the finishing layer to breathe normally, creating an optimal microclimate inside. As a result, the walls will become covered with condensation. To prevent this from happening, you will have to constantly ventilate the room manually or make good ventilation inside.
4. Since the foil is thin, it is easy to damage. Therefore, if there are children or pets in the room, it is better to abandon this option.

Design

Plain

Wallpaper without a pattern or pattern can be used to cover the entire room or just one wall. They are combined with white or contrasting moldings. Wallpaper in blue tones does not look boring, since the emphasis is on the texture (waves, herringbone, speckled, polka dots, etc.) of vinyl or glass wallpaper. Neutral style is suitable for modern, Scandinavian and classic interiors.

Plain wallpaper does not need to be matched to the joint.

Wallpaper with a pattern

They suit the style of the room based on the theme of the drawing and are divided into subtypes:

With ornament

The combination of identical shapes and lines, where the sequence of alternation and change of sizes creates dynamics in the interior.

The geometry looks best in a large version.

Suitable for any type of room in loft, Scandinavian or country style.

Patterns (damask, monograms)

Suitable for art deco and classic style. Depending on the material of the wallpaper, it can be embossed or flat.

Flowered

This pattern is characterized by an interweaving of leaves, flowers, branches and grass.

When wallpapering, you need to follow the continuation of the fragment.

Flowers can be large or small, white, pink or red. Suitable for classic, English, country and Provence styles.

Images of birds and animals

A print with birds or butterflies is well suited for Provence or shabby chic style, and will also be a good idea for creating an accent wall in a modern interior.

Stripes

Striped wallpaper can be vertical (which will visually raise the ceiling), horizontal (will expand the space, but make the room lower), large (suitable for a large room) and small (for a small one). The strip can alternate with a different pattern, with stripes of a different color, or be plain.

Suitable for minimalism and classic interiors.

How to choose wallpaper

Metal products are multilayer materials. The basis is two materials: paper and non-woven fabric. It is clear that it is preferable to choose the second option, since it simplifies installation, high adhesion to the surface, and the material itself is more durable.

When choosing products, you should pay attention to the appearance and packaging itself. The integrity and tightness of the coating is important. Otherwise, there is no guarantee that the already thin material was not damaged and was not exposed to negative environmental influences. The approximate thickness of the sheets is 1 mm. Quality certificates can say a lot about products. Then you can be sure that metal-look wallpaper will not harm your health and will last the stated 10–15 years.

Combination is an excellent option for metal products. It is better to choose breathable natural materials that would neutralize the disadvantages of metal sheets. These include cork, stone, bamboo wallpaper.

Another task is not only to buy metal products, but to find a suitable place for them. Since the products are glossy, they can visually expand the room and make it brighter. It is for such rooms that the finishing material will be ideal. Popular time-tested brands: Tekko and Arte.

Combination with other colors

Wallpaper can be combined with one color that is close to blue (white, blue, aquamarine, turquoise, brown). In this case, blue will be the background for the companion color. Wallpaper can also be combined with vibrant, contrasting colors in warm tones (orange, yellow, red) in moderation. This could be curtains, fittings, decor and textiles.

Light blue

This wallpaper option in combination with a white pattern or design will create a feeling of cleanliness and freshness.

In the photo in the bedroom, blue wallpaper with white geometric patterns accents the wall at the head of the bed and the central part of the ceiling, highlighting the relaxation area.

The combination with shades of beige, green and brown will be associated with nature.

Dark blue

In combination with light gray stripes in a spacious, hot room, wallpaper will create a cool effect, and wallpaper with gold patterns and white embossed baseboards is suitable for a room in a classic style.

The combination of pale pink abstraction or flowers on a blue background is suitable for the Provence style. This tandem of colors can be diluted with white textiles and dark brown furniture.

Baby blue

They go perfectly in any proportion with green wallpaper in light green and pistachio shades, and dark blue with olive.

Black and dark brown color

Allowed for glossy furniture surfaces, as patterns on upholstery and wallpaper.

Bedroom with blue decorative elements

The blue and white interior is cooler and is best used in the kitchen or bedroom. Cold colors require some softening, especially if the furniture is made of wood coated with white gloss. The blue color in the bedroom interior depends on what shade the ceiling is and what colors the draperies are made in. In the bedroom, the tone of the wallpaper should be very gentle and clean. Wallpaper with small pink flowers - this combination will perfectly complement brown linoleum.

The lilac color of bedspreads, throws and decorative pillows on a sofa or armchair will help make the decor warmer. This transition allows the use of pink, a derivative of crimson, in the interior.

The blue color in the interior of any room is a democratic shade that combines completely incompatible tones, for example, gray and emerald green, blue and red, bright orange and lilac or lilac.

In the dining area, you can use kitchen photo wallpaper with an image of the sea or sky.

To create a bright hallway, it is best to combine a white ceiling with blue wallpaper. This choice will visually expand the corridor and add space without windows.

Interior style of a blue bedroom

Distinctive features of different interior styles help to choose the right wallpaper for decorating walls in a room.

Classic

These bedrooms are for connoisseurs of luxury. For decoration, they mainly choose a warm, light palette: golden, beige, milky white. However, spacious rooms decorated with light blue canvases with ornate patterns also look elegant and expensive. Great design ideas - the use of companion wallpaper, textiles, moldings, stucco.

Provence

Bedroom comfort is created by elegant light-colored furniture and unpretentious patterns on light blue wallpaper. Moreover, the patterns can contain the entire color palette of the style: pale pink, sand, soft light green, blurry lavender. If the windows and bed are decorated with colorful textiles, then it is recommended to choose plain wallpaper for Provence furnishings.

Delicate design with a rustic touch

Country

The interior is decorated with plain canvases of muted blue shades, which serve as an original background for the furniture. If the decoration of the walls is intended to be the main decoration of the room, then companion canvases are chosen: the wall at the head is covered with wallpaper with a large pattern, and the rest with plain wallpaper. Furniture sets are installed that have retained their natural shade. Moreover, the objects placed are massive, a little rough in appearance.

Mediterranean style

The calm, light style naturally sets the mood for rest and relaxation. Ideal combinations: soft blue wallpaper, beige laminate, snow-white bed linen. Window decor to match the walls is encouraged, with curtains hung from floor to ceiling. Naturalness is manifested in everything, so furniture and interior items are selected in natural shades.

Freshness and originality of Mediterranean design

Scandinavian style

The main role in this case is played by colors and shades. It is worth giving preference to white, light gray, pale blue and beige tones. You can add a bright note in the form of an accent insert. It is advisable to use a ready-made option and stick on canvases of other colors or with a contrasting pattern. This combination allows you to place accents, divide the bedroom into functional areas and simply liven up the atmosphere, diluting the coolness of Scandinavia.

Loft

The style involves maintaining rough, unfinished walls. Light gray concrete partitions will go well with blue wallpaper. To prevent the bedroom from becoming uninhabited, it is recommended to make one wall an accent wall or leave a small area undecorated. You can imitate raw textures and textures with vinyl gray-blue products. Textiles in beige and coffee shades will add coziness to the atmosphere.

Modern

Features of the style are muted blue colors and smooth forms of furniture. To decorate the room, natural materials are selected (wood, textile wallpaper, plaster). Bright paintings and panels will add elegant notes to the pastel interior. But everything should be in moderation. A great idea is to decorate the ceiling or walls with white moldings or stucco.

Bright decor in a modern interior

Retro

A great idea for a retro-style bedroom is wallpaper in pale blue shades with simple floral patterns or regular stripes. Since the direction is more tied to time than to fashion, it is impossible to single out certain color standards. An excellent choice would be brown, beige canvases with blue/blue geometric patterns. For window decoration, it is important to use extraordinary colorful curtains. Various thick glass vases and figurines are welcome.

Ethno

Originality is a distinctive feature of style, so the bedroom decor expresses the traditions of a particular country or nationality. The interior in national motifs is always interesting and bright. Several general qualities can be identified:

• natural materials are used, so paper products are welcome;
• the color palette reflects the preferences of a particular country;
• National drawings and patterns must be used as decoration.

Most often, the entire apartment or house is decorated in ethnic style, rather than a separate room.

Eco

Interiors that optimally combine natural materials, natural colors and comfort are becoming increasingly in demand. A common color duo is brown-green. Blue or turquoise color may be present as accents or small details. Canvases with floral motifs are often used in wall decoration. Photo wallpapers and accent walls with large drawings are also welcome. It is appropriate to use panels with plant elements as decoration.

Harmonious blue-green colors in the interior

Chinoiserie

Blue and white porcelain, ornaments with Chinese birds, silhouettes of Chinese pagodas are constant attributes of the style. The mystery of the direction will be reflected by blue-blue wallpaper with images of exotic plants and sakura branches. The same motifs can be repeated on textile items. The blue wall decor is exquisitely combined with golden furniture trim and amber-colored parquet floors. The bed must have a high soft headboard.

Mysterious and fashionable chinoiserie style in the bedroom

Thanks to wallpaper, it is possible not only to decorate a room in an original way, but also to visually correct its shortcomings. Blue is a cold color, but this is not an obstacle to creating a cozy and relaxing environment in the bedroom.

Rules for choosing curtains

Curtains can be in the same colors as the wallpaper and repeat the pattern. The color of the fabric or borders can match the upholstery, the color of dishes, accessories, edging of pillows, bedspreads and other interior items.

The photo shows a bedroom design in sky blue tones, which looks fresh due to the large window, white accents and a glossy ceiling that reflects daylight.

To visually correct the perception of the room, contrasting colors are used (bright purple or burgundy curtains make it smaller, while white translucent ones make it larger).

To decorate one window, you can safely combine turquoise and yellow, blue and green, brown and turquoise, brown and white.

To prevent the interior from looking too bright, you need to choose pastel colors (pale yellow, lilac, light green). To accentuate a window in a bedroom or living room, you can make one of the curtains in a contrasting color.

For the kitchen, it is better to choose curtains made of non-flammable fiber and a simple cut.

The photo shows an example of a blue Victorian kitchen with a classic small monochromatic pattern that does not reduce the space of a small kitchen. Blue wallpaper is combined with Roman striped curtains in harmonious colors.

For a child's room, blue roller blinds, tulle and classic curtains with pink or gold patterns are suitable.

Tools and materials for gluing

To glue metal wallpaper to a surface, you cannot do without the following tools:

• roller and brush to apply glue;
• a knife or scissors that are convenient for cutting wallpaper;
• plastic spatula;
• barrel-shaped roller used to process joints;
• a brush or rubber roller designed for smoothing wallpaper;
• sponge or cloth to remove excess glue;
• water level;
• wallpaper;
• tape measure, pencil;
• primer;
• special glue with good adhesion for heavy canvases.

Choosing the color of furniture, floors, ceilings and doors

Depending on the saturation of the wallpaper, different colors of furniture will be suitable. You need to follow the rule: the darker the walls, the lighter the furniture, and vice versa.

For blue wallpaper with brown patterns, furniture that matches the pattern is suitable.

It is better to make the ceiling and floor the same color, or it can be a dark laminate and a white ceiling. In a small room, it is not recommended to make the walls and ceiling the same color.

Interior doors are preferably white or light shades.

Where are metal wallpapers used?

Thanks to its features, metal wallpaper can be used anywhere and adjusted to any design. Be it an office, a private house or an apartment. Any room will look exclusive and original.

However, as designers advise, there is no need to cover all the walls with metal products. If the room has a lot of natural light, the glare reflected from the surface can be annoying. This wallpaper is good for decorating niches, small and poorly lit rooms. The ideal way is to combine metal wallpaper with other finishing coatings. This will even have a positive impact on costs.

Interesting! The material is suitable for decorating both residential premises and for decorating swimming pools, bars, nightclubs and similar buildings.

Style selection

When choosing wallpaper, it is important to maintain unity of style in the design of walls, curtains and furniture.

Classic

We recognize it by its characteristic print: white monograms and ornaments on a blue background, or gold patterns on a dark blue background. The size of the patterns depends on the dimensions of the room. Plain wallpaper will be decorated with embossed borders, moldings and decorative items.

Modern

It is distinguished by restraint and practicality, so here you can see plain wallpaper, photo wallpaper, geometric patterns and straight lines.

Country

Characteristic are natural shades of blue combined with white, green and brown.

Nautical

Use wallpaper with a small pattern, stripes or photo wallpaper with a large thematic image covering the entire wall. This option is ideal for a children's room.

Classic options

There is an established tradition of combining bluish shades of walls and the following color of curtains:

• white;
• beige;
• grey.

White curtains enhance the feeling of freshness and cleanliness in the room. This combination is considered airy and romantic. It's a win-win. In addition, a neutral blue and white background will allow you to dilute the interior with other, brighter details. White curtains may not be made of a single-color, laconic fabric, but rather diluted with drawings. Blue flowers on a snowy background echo the identical shade of the walls very beautifully. It is also possible to have cream, milky, beige or turquoise patterns on the curtains.

Beige curtains perfectly complement the bluish wallpaper. This tandem gives peace and confidence to the inhabitants. It can also be diluted with a few bright notes.

Gray with blue looks somewhat unusual. This combination is only suitable for well-lit rooms, in which the sun's rays can soften some of the coldness of the interior. Gray and blue help to concentrate attention.

Gold in luxurious oriental style

In the East, it is customary to create the illusion of luxury with the help of patterns and color combinations. To create an interior of the appropriate style, use the Damascus collection with a background of burgundy and turquoise tones. The design should be painted or decorated with gold. Panels are clapboard or board coated with glossy yellow varnish.

For art deco and eclecticism, soft tones of blue and coffee with milk with gold inscriptions are suitable. The contours of geometric shapes create a festive mood for a disco and a friendly party. For this, the remains of trellises in rich colors are used.

Interior styles and blue wallpapers

Now it’s time to figure out which design styles that are used in the living room can be characterized by blue wallpaper. For which interior areas this color is “manna from heaven”, and for which it is an alien element, let’s find out together.

• Blue wallpaper interspersed with white, green or orange can often be found in living rooms decorated in eco style. This style is characterized by a predominance of natural colors and tones, and the above combination betrays precisely natural colors. Looking at such wallpapers, involuntary associations arise with the warm blue summer sky, green grass and sun.
• Blue wallpaper with sand patterns is used to decorate the walls of a classic living room. In this case, choose light shades of blue so that they do not catch the eye. Because in a classic interior they try to concentrate attention on individual objects, artificially depersonalizing the background.
• An interior called art deco is not complete without blue wallpaper. This interior is invariably chosen by creative people. After all, this color promotes the development of creativity, so the use of this color is predetermined.

To summarize, we note that the use of blue wallpaper in your living room when decorating its interior is not only acceptable, but in some cases is warmly welcomed by designers. Everything largely depends on the specifics of the chosen interior composition and your taste. One thing is for sure, the blue color has a large number of different interior advantages, and it would be a sin not to use them on occasion.

Photo of blue wallpaper in the living room interior

Only with a harmonious combination of all interior elements can you achieve a unique, stylish environment in which all family members will be comfortable. And therefore, it is very important not only to correctly choose the main dominant color of the wallpaper, but also to choose furniture, fabric decoration and accessories to match it. What curtains are suitable for blue wallpaper? Let's try to understand the intricacies of design.

Entrust the choice of shades and wallpaper patterns to a woman

My friend came to visit me with his wife and asked me to determine who was right. They argued whether it was possible to completely decorate all the rooms in the house without repeating themselves and giving each its own personality. There was only one condition: all the wallpaper would be blue.

If you want to decorate your home in an interesting and original way, then trust a woman. By nature, a man has difficulty distinguishing between green and turquoise tones. But a woman sees many shades only in blue:

• heavenly;
• electrician;
• Blue bird;
• turquoise;
• sea ​​wave;
• pang;
• cyanogen;
• aqua.

And that's not all. Nature itself has endowed women with the ability to distinguish shades and feel the combination. She will quickly select wallpaper companions in the interior and determine the style. In addition, combined wallpapers can have any combination; contrasting burgundy and green are complemented by coffee with milk. In the right ratio, this option can look harmonious and will allow you to use the remains of the stripes as decoration. It is necessary to determine the role of each tone in the interior:

• the background color occupies the largest area;
• addition - emphasizes the main one, gives it depth;
• the accent stands out in contrast in separate spots, its area is less than 10%, it is the most noticeable.

The background color is usually blue. Turquoise, green and blue wallpaper in the interior are plain and with ornaments and act as a complement. The mood of the room is determined by the accent. These are elements of rich tones of burgundy, yellow, coffee with milk, gold.

Photo wallpaper on the floor

The idea of ​​covering floors with photo wallpaper is not new; many home craftsmen have already tried this budget-friendly method of creating a super-floor. Externally, photo wallpaper on the floor is difficult to distinguish from self-leveling flooring.

With skillful application and creative choice, photo wallpaper on the floor looks luxurious and can turn even a boring bathroom into a bright and stylish room.

For red furniture

Bright kitchen furniture with glossy fronts will look best in a spacious kitchen or in an apartment with a studio layout. Such furniture immediately becomes the dominant feature around which the rest of the interior is built.

A juicy red shade for the set (scarlet, carmine, red, crimson) is highly not recommended for a small kitchen. The abundance of red in a tight space leads to rapid fatigue, irritates and can even cause aggression. The optimal solution: a set of calm, muted shades of red - terracotta, burgundy, garnet, coral, cherry.

Since the red set will play the main role, it is better to choose a neutral background color for the wallpaper. White, cream, light wood, ivory, and gray wallpapers are perfect.

Red and black kitchens create a dramatic effect. Black wallpaper for a red headset is a bold decision. The kitchen turns out to be dynamic and hyperbolic. It is better to stick to modern styles.

The combination of red and black will balance white well. For example, white wallpaper with a black graphic pattern is an ideal choice for a red kitchen in a high-tech or minimalist style.

Rules for selecting skirting boards: in which cases it is not needed

The floor plinth completes the design of the floor. This is also an important design element, the choice of which should not be neglected. But there are some exceptions - interiors in which the white floor is good on its own and does not require a baseboard. This is what minimalism is considered to be.

For classic and modern design, it is best to give preference to skirting boards of the same shade as the floor itself. Black is a classic approach to design, built on contrasts. But in this case it is necessary that black be present somewhere else. This could be, for example, a door to a room, furniture, etc. In addition to those listed, the plinth can be in the shades of furniture, walls, or repeat the color of the ceiling stucco.

Advice! If the size of the room allows, then framing the floor can be done using plinths of unusual texture and shape.

Classic and Empire interiors are created with Damascus wallpaper

Kitchen interior using blue wallpaper

A special place among vinyl and paper trellises is occupied by collections with patterns from the Damascus series. Luxurious and complex floral ornament, decorated with curls. Green and turquoise patterns on a blue background. There is a fabulous interweaving of gold and silver across the black and burgundy field. These are classic trellises for luxurious Damascus interiors.

For classic interiors of the Victorian era, a combination of light terracotta tones is selected. Blue color increases space. Combined damask and plain wallpapers emphasize certain areas of the room.

Once again I had to resolve the contradictions of my friends. They argued about black damask walls with gold designs. This combination looked gorgeous, but I didn’t recommend covering all the walls with them. Then the room from the Gothic style turned into a room for lovers of art and mysticism, called Goths. Wallpaper companions in the interior changed the mood:

• plain blue and burgundy created the illusion of luxury;
• green ones added natural freshness;
• turquoise fragments were transferred to the fabulous countries of the East;
• beige or coffee with milk emphasized the hospitality of the owners;
• the white ones created intrigue with their contrast.

The remains of Damascus wallpaper can be used as additional decor. Stripes with luxurious patterns will add charm to any interior. The lining at the bottom of the wall gives the office a businesslike feel.

Advice! You need to choose wallpaper companions not only from the same material, but even from the same manufacturer. The ideal option is specially created collections. Solid colors should match one of the three most used colors in the design.

Folk styles, lining and checkered wallpaper

Blue wallpaper in the living room

Many folk styles, especially country and Scandinavian, country, look harmonious if the wallpaper on the walls is a companion in the interior and there is always a cage and lining. The combination of boards coated with white or clear varnish creates a farmhouse atmosphere. Plain blue walls symbolize nature and the sky. Green and coffee-with-milk wallpapers are calming and make the atmosphere warm and homely. Scottish plaid in different colors, including hot burgundy and yellow tones, warms.

Beige wallpaper in the interior, plain and with ornaments, is most often used in cold areas. They warm you with their color. They are complemented by green, turquoise and blue trellises, with checkered, striped and circle patterns. The accent and mood are created by coffee with milk, burgundy, orange and various elements with rich contrasting colors in checkered and floral patterns.

The floors and panels for such an interior are made natural, these are boards, lining, veneer. In Scandinavian countries, wood is coated with white varnish. All other styles show natural color: gold of pine, coffee with milk of oak, pink shade of cherry with a unique ornament of annual rings and sapwood.

How to create a harmonious interior

The most successful way to give your apartment an interior with cool tones is blue wallpaper and matching curtains, which will be an additional decor. After the renovation, the room will acquire a modest, cozy atmosphere.

Often, experts complement the interior of the premises with a decorative element, which can be a painting, vase or photo frame in blue or gray. You definitely need to pay attention to the upholstery of the upholstered furniture in the room. It should be in harmony with the overall color scheme of the room.

Blue wallpaper goes well with a blue or gray carpet. It is better that the color of the carpet is a little brighter than the shade of the wallpaper, then a lighter atmosphere will appear. Here, a special addition will be small kitchen utensils, for example, various vases, salad bowls and other decorative items.

What to choose first?

Despite the long-term use of such materials for room decoration as wallpaper and laminate, the question of priority remains open. It all depends on the required effects and other repair measures possible within the framework of a specific design project .

Important

The main rule of repair: “Fine finishing with finishing material is carried out from the ceiling to the floor covering.”

The sequence implies the following stages of final finishing:

1. If the systems for finishing the ceiling are not complex acoustic or tension ones, then the coating is applied to them from the beginning of work.
2. The walls are covered with wallpaper or finished with other materials.
3. The floor is laid, painted or varnished last. When you do not need to enter the room, then the coating will dry completely.

Floor covering labels indicate its composition . Since 90% of laminate is wood fibers, contact with moisture can ruin it, so the material should be installed after all “wet” work, including with wallpaper adhesives.

The reasons why workers may suggest laying laminate before pasting the rolled material on the walls may be hidden:

• in “last minute” deadlines for the customer himself: he hurries the master to complete the work only in this order;
• the comfort of the employee, who is more comfortable walking on a flat surface and does not care about its subsequent use;
• absence of wallpaper at a particular moment, therefore, to prevent downtime, work is being done to lay flooring material.

There is no need to break established rules. The quality of the work performed and the service life of the material may depend on this.

Main characteristics of blue color

This color has positive energy

• Positively affects the physical condition of the body - normalizes blood pressure, reduces appetite, improves sleep;
• Has a beneficial effect on the psyche - concentration increases, the ability to think creatively develops;

The water-colored laundry room looks more spacious

• Unlike blue, it does not hide the space, but, on the contrary, expands and lightens it, which allows the use of blue in narrow and small rooms;

Soft pink accents in the form of flowers and birds set the mood for a romantic mood.

• Interacts with a wide palette of colors - with neighboring ones (blue, green), with opposite ones (orange, yellow), with achromatic ones (black, white, gray).

To summarize the above, a blue background in a room helps create a calm and cozy environment. In addition, you can find a lot of successful combinations with other colors for this tone.
