Color of the Month: Voyage

June is a month of warm weather, well-suited for an abundance of outdoor time beneath soft summery skies. Voyage is a soothing, peaceful blue which calls to mind the idyllic sky and ocean view that sets the mood for the perfect June afternoon.

Voyage and similar variations bring an uplifting, fresh-breeze feeling to any room and a pleasing color for many different décor styles.  It imparts a relaxed look in a mid-century modern living room paired with neutral furniture and accessories. 

A white staircase looks stunning against a Voyage blue backdrop. White baseboards, light wood flooring and an area rug with subtle pattern, create an almost ethereal atmosphere emulating sand and sky, or a climb leading up into the clouds. A wood table near the wall, topped with potted plants, further enhances the outdoor mood.

Voyage is an excellent accent color on a ceiling. A soothing blue overhead creates an inviting atmosphere in a white dining room. Natural colors in art and furniture complete the look.

With their tranquil nature, blues are an easy choice for bedroom walls. Voyage serves as a pleasant wall color that feels like a peaceful, schedule-free day. A unique white headboard makes an interesting focal point against this calm background color.
