Aqua and Apple Green Bedroom Nook
A preppy pairing in high gloss defines and energizes the all-time tiniest nook. For a wee, windowless room like this one, choose paints in pearly or glossy finishes. They reflect light and make even the most minuscule spot feel brighter and more spacious. -Domino

Sophisticated Blue Living Room
Go for a deep aqua tone of blue for the walls, as it's a warm shade of the color. Mix with darker blue furniture and off-white pieces to create balance, and accents of taupe will bring richness to the scheme. Dark wood is also good for adding depth and hints of bright pink will lift the room. -House to Home

Light-Filled Spa Bathroom
Three of the walls in this small San Francisco bathroom are lined from floor to ceiling in 2- by 2-inch watery blue glass tiles; the entry wall, which gets direct sun, is covered in tumbled black mosaic tile to reduce glare and soften the light in the rest of the room.

Soothing, Peaceful Bathroom
A small space can be just as restorative as a large one -- and color is the main ingredient for setting a peaceful mood. In this bungalow bathroom in Seattle, the mix of materials is limited to two colors: cool blue (which is calming and evokes natural elements) and warm cream (which suggests coziness and comfort). The effect is the visual equivalent of a long, cool drink of water. At the vanity, chrome towel rings, unadorned mirrors, and other minimal accents add to the peaceful mood.
The blue tint of the frosted-glass shower surround stays in step with the wall color, while the translucency of the glass allows light into the shower and adds to the open feel. The shower's half-wall creates the perfect shelf for pampering products. -Cottage Living

Getting Fresh
“I really love lots of light, so I don’t use curtains very much,” she says. An exception is the master bedroom, where turquoise accessories, including curtains rendered in a turquoise, lime and hot pink Designers Guild fabric, provide a brilliant contrast to the white-on-white space. -At Home in Fairfield County

A bright, restful home
This 1840's East Hampton, New York home was reinvented with a modern color palette, including Robin's Egg Blue walls in the bedroom and turquoise accessories in the living room.
"And what could be more restful than a wonderful robin’s-egg blue?" says Drake of the wall color of the master bedroom. It's a quiet whisper of the living room’s turquoise. -Point Click Home
