Dark blue-green paint recommendations for a living and dining room

[TheSmellOfSea]

I want a dark bluey green colour for my living/dining room. Any recommendations? TIA

Farrow and Ball Hague Blue is gorgeous. Definitely blue but with a greeny tinge. It's a really rich, deep colour, we have it in our living room.

Edited to add - go for the dead flat or the estate emulsion rather than the modern emulsion - the colour is so rich and velvety that a sheen would ruin it.

We also have Hague Blue and it’s gorgeous!

We colour-drenched the hall stairs and landing of our last house in F&B Inchyra Blue (estate emulsion) which read as a fabulous greeny blue in the space.

I like them both. I'm doing the woodwork and door in the same shade. Not the ceiling though.

I need a very large rug for the living room too. I can wait for that. Has to be right as it'll be costly.

Agree with PP or if you want something with a greyer subtler tone then look at Squid Ink by paint & paper library

Careful with dark blue-greens! They look great on Pinterest but can turn a room into a dungeon without enough natural light. I'd test BM Narragansett Green, but make sure you check how it looks in the evening before you paint the whole thing.

It's a big room with lots of light so hopefully it'll be ok?

F&B Oval Room Blue is gorgeous. Have it in our bedroom and its such a lovely calming colour. Have used it in living room and bathrooms in other houses.

We have this on the stairs and in a living room, and I adore it. The thing I really like about it is that it’s equally, though differently, beautiful in daylight (sunny, south-facing room) and by artificial light at night. Not at all cavernous, just a deep, rich colour.

This too ^

We first used Oval Room Blue in the early noughties in our gothic inspired dining room! A few houses on and we used it again in the kitchen of our last house where we painted the base cabinets and island in Oval Room Blue eggshell 🩵

Another great greeny blue is F&B Green Smoke - although we've only ever used this externally (on two houses) - but we have plans to use it again at our current cottage.

Thanks. Some great shades for me to mull over. Dh is colour blind so all on me!
