It’s not always bad to have the blues, especially when it comes to home design. Colour continues to make a comeback in residential interiors, with blue tones popping up in cabinetry, countertops and backsplashes. From rich, full-colour surfacing to distinctive, blue-veined marbles to barely there blue undertones, this versatile hue might just be the new neutral you’ve been needing! 

Here we highlight three categories of surfacing you can use to incorporate blue into your next project.

Blue and Bold: FENIX^® Innovative Materials

If dark and moody is your style, blue cabinets or countertops can build drama into your design. The demand for blue cabinets continues to grow, and super matte surfacing in deep blue offers significant wow factor. Fingerprint-resistant FENIX^® surfaces in J0792 Blu Shaba and J0754 Blu Fes offer a soft-to-the-touch feel with low light reflectivity. Interestingly, minimalism and European design trends welcome colour in deep shades that are organic and adaptable enough to function as neutrals. Who knew?
