My 13 year old daughter would like to have her bedroom painted the blue/brown design. Can you please help me pick the right blue/brown combination?

I don’t want to make any mistakes (the trim in her bedroom is white) also would it be right to paint only one wall the brown? She does have a big window with built in book cases (white) on each side of the window.

Should i paint the back of the cases brown also? Please HELP!

Thank you Betsy

Brown and blue is such a beautiful color combination. I actually did some research and found a few examples of bedrooms with brown & blue paint colors.

This picture is from www.mommygoggles.com I know that it’s a nursery, but notice how they have the opposite walls painted – one brown and one blue?  Nice.

The third picture is from www.apartmenttherapy.com.  If you are unsure about painting a wall a dark brown, then may be you can paint all the walls blue and accessorize with brown as they did in the picture.

Blue and Chocolate Hotel Spa Collection Duvet Cover 6 piece Bedding Set-Available in King and Queen

I love the “Hotel” look !

The floor and the accent wall are about the same colorations. Both made of wood… but these could be carpet and wall colors. Very neutral. The other walls are a crisp white which sets off the bedding and window treatments.

Great Outdoors Brown and Blue All Cotton Comforter Set

This set is to “outdoors” for a teen girl… but the blue color combined with several browns is gorgeous.

I would go with a chocolate brown and a grey blue color.  I have a couple Benjamin Moore color charts in front of me so I will make a couple suggestions from there.

Medium Blue – Soft Chinchilla 2135-50
Darker Blue – Province Blue 2135-40
(these are all on the same color swatch)

Benjamin Moore Browns -
Whitall Brown – HC-69

or a lighter brown – Davenport Tan HC-76
