Hazel is: Denim Blue

They’re timeless. They’re comfy. They’re stylish and versatile - dressed up, dressed down. They’re nothing other than a cherished pair of blue jeans in that perfect color of Denim Blue - neither whitewashed nor dark, neither bright blue nor faded grey. We can probably all admit to having revitalized our favorite pair of blue jeans by cutting them above the busted knees after too much wear and tear (literally) and instantly converting them into shorts. Denim Blue is also the perfect blue tone of a sky at dusk after the most gorgeous sunset has moved its way further west and the remnants of orange are barely detectable.

The inspiration of denim on denim in fashion also suits the interior design of spaces. Just like that perfect pair of denim blue jeans, the monochromatic color gradient from pale, distressed blue to a deeper shade of midnight blue is a cinch to dress down for a more casual coastal interior or dress up for a more sophisticated seaside look. To a certain extent, distressed denim blue in design can serve as a neutral since it’s not a true blue but rather a greyed down tone of blue. Think of the versatility of those blue jeans in the sense that there’s no so-called right or wrong color of t-shirt to wear on it. The same can be considered a rule of thumb in designing spaces with denim blue as a neutral paired with any accent color.
