While, historically, shades of blue have been associated with bathrooms and shower-rooms, the research found that blue tones were actually now highly sought after for every room in the house – including even the kitchen.
The research looked at in demand colours by well-known paint brands Dulux and Farrow & Ball and found that dark hues of blue were high on the list for kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms and living rooms.
In particular, Farrow & Ball's Hague Blue seemed to be very popular among paint colour searches for its chic and elegant but cosy and enveloping feel.
Results of the research also revealed that different shades of blue made up 55 per cent of the 20 most popular paint colours, closely followed by grey, which made up 40 per cent, and pink, which made up five per cent.
