The Color You Need Now ... Blue and White

Pieter Estersohn
 

Click to Enlarge

Mention blue and white, and you immediately conjure images of china or porcelain. Flip through the pages of any home-decorating magazine, and you'll undoubtedly come upon a piece of blue-and-white china in every type of interior. In broader strokes, however, such as walls, floors, and furniture, the classic combination takes on a fashionable edge. We love variations on cobalt, indigo, and cornflower to create a contrast with white that looks contemporary but also evokes the past. Sometimes nautical, often exotic, and always crisp, the blue-and-white look never goes out of style.
