Bold blue-green. My long-running love of lime green has recently given way to a passion for peacock greenish blues, and I’ve been using them in any and every place I can get my hands on. Jennifer Ott Design This option is definitely vibrant and eye-catching. I feel you can go a bit bolder with blue, because it’s a color most of us find desirable and soothing due to our association with blue skies and bodies of water. If you too are a fan of greenish blue but find this hue a bit too bold, go for a shade that is lighter and has more gray in it. The gray will tone it down while still giving a refreshing, watery vibe. For a similar look, try In the Tropics from Benjamin Moore.

Love the doorway. Lets in light. Especially the clerestory windows above. Not sure about privacy and security though.
