the moody blue paint designers love

Is it possible that designers of diverse styles can all agree on the same blue hue? We polled some of our favorite designer friends across the country on their go-to shades and one response kept popping up: Hague Blue by Farrow & Ball. New York-based Alison Rose, Dallas-based Tracy Connell, Chicago-based Bruce Fox and Lexington, Kentucky-based Benjamin Deaton are just a few of the pros that named it as their favorite shade of the color.

Pro tip: The brand recommends pairing Hague Blue with Borrowed Light as an accent color, and with Old White, if you're in need of a complementary white. Get inspired—and get sampling!—to find the blue that's right for you.
