NAVY OR COBALT??


Do you know the difference between cobalt blue and navy blue ?


Cobalt blue is a cool, sightly desaturated blue color, historically made using cobalt salt of alumina. It is used in certain ceramics (historically,especially Chinese porcelain)and painting. 

Cobalt blue is a bright and daring color. For me the cobalt result is more be nice if we use in a very glossy finish. The cobalt will be more come out,it is trending and therefore accessible. Nowadays its not strange to use the dominant blue color on a room, provide properly it would be really nice and daring. Bring some cobalt into your room, use as fabrics,feature wall paint or accessories, it will be fascinated.


Navy blue is a very dark shade of the color blue which almost appears as black. Navy blue got its name from the dark blue(contrasted with white). 

Navy blue tone is very dark, almost appears as black. we have to be careful to put it in the scheme because it can makes the room appear smaller. Dark tones provide a fantastic back drop for lighter and brighter colors which makes them more vibrant and alive. Navy blue is a cool color it benefits from light accents.

so which one u like? :)
