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 exalted blue of the cloudless sky, a perpetual source of inspiration.

Sky blue is the color “of a cloudless sky on a sunny summer day at about midday, viewed at an angle of approximately 30°.” In a unique attempt to introduce a system to the world of imaginative color names in the 1960s, Kornerup and Wanscher first categorized color names, such as sky blue, alphabetically and then related them to pictoral descriptions and to numbered color fields. The definitions can often be applied to the spatial effects of the color. Sky blue, for example, expands in space, lending it lightness and freedom – like the sky on a sunny day.
