Choose ktCOLOR blue paint colors for sustainability and for aesthetically pleasing surfaces in your projects. You will be delighted to see how they reflect the beauty of nature in your spaces.

A steely blue nuance with plenty of gray.

An impermeable, metallic quality characterizes this strongly grayed blue, making it a special case among the class of usually receding blue colors. The reference Nattier’s blue is based on was found on a color card from Le Corbusier’s estate. Jean-Marc Nattier, a French portrait painter, apparently used such a paint to depict the rich velvet of royal clothing. Le Corbusier used a similar shade for steel tubing. Nattier’s blue is too heavy to be used for a ceiling, but it can be used to impart a wall surface with weight and solidity.
