Let's Wander | The Mesmerizing Island of Santorini, Greece
Santorini Blue: A vibrant hue against the crisp white architecture that creates a serene yet striking landscape that is nothing short of inspirational.
On a recent trip to Greece, we explored Athens, sailed Rhodes, Crete, and the mesmerizing island of Santorini. I’ve always admired the iconic blue domes showcased in postcards and paintings, but they are truly a sight to behold in person. Their vibrant hue against the crisp white architecture creates a serene yet striking contrast that's nothing short of inspirational.
When I returned home I started to notice the iconic Santorini Blue - a mid-tone cool blue with a hint of grey - hiding in unexpected places within my own home. The blue flower vase, a hint of patterned blue in bath tiles, my favorite wine key - it must have slipped into my subconscious. Here are some thoughts for homeowners looking to bring a touch of Santorini's magic into your space. Consider incorporating shades of blue into wallpaper, a bold accent wall, chic upholstery, kitchen tiles, a stand-out front door, or subtle decor pieces. Blue can evoke a sense of tranquility and elegance reminiscent of the Aegean Sea. Let the spirit of Santorini transform your home into a personal paradise.
