Palladian Blue by Benjamin Moore HC-144

Palladian Blue is a lovely, soft sky blue color. Benjamin Moore describes it as having hints of Mother of Pearl.

I see a lot of green undertones in this light blue. It’s a very watery color and is especially spa-like.

While this is by no means a “bright” color, it has a lot more color pigment than some neutral or gray toned light blues.

If you like the color Sea Salt, this is basically a slightly darker and more pigmented version of that.

Honest Blue is a light, bright blue – almost a sky blue color. It has slight gray undertones so it’s not baby blue but instead a more muted shade.

I love the idea of using this shade of blue for a kitchen island paired with crisp white as an accent color.
