Magical Ultramarine Blue: Why to Choose ktCOLOR's Blue Shades

Ultramarine and lapis lazuli are rare and precious pigments, and they are a hallmark of ktCOLOR’s exceptional paint colors. Unlike machine-mixed blue premium paints, our handcrafted paint colors use both of these magical pigments. From light Sky Blue to deep Blue Velvet, our blues are in a league of their own. They impart a heavenly depth to your interior design projects.

The interaction between ultramarine blue and electromagnetic energy accounts for its remarkable ability to make dark surfaces look lighter. The pigment molecules absorb invisible ultraviolet light, convert it to visible blue light, and project it into the space. This ability, which is unique to ultramarine and lapis lazuli pigments, explains why other pigments cannot be substituted for them. Even small amounts of ultramarine blue suffice for the effect to become apparent, allowing colors such as this light blue to exhibit a sustaining beauty in the shadows.
