The splendor of blue-and-white china endures no matter the occasion or time of year. Enliven a vignette composed of mismatched transferware, silver, and linens with an assortment of pink and lavender blooms.
Complementary Appeal
In this cozy den, shades of blue and orange are pulled from a bold Oriental rug and take shape as playful patterned throw pillows. The harmonious blend jazzes up neutral walls, draperies, and sofas without feeling too busy. 
What better scheme for a seaside get-together than a spectrum of colors that nod to sunny skies and crystal waters? Mixing in a few nautical-themed accents with everyday décor makes entertaining a breeze.
Chic Comfort
Classic blue reigns in this tranquil bedroom nook, from the paneled built-in shelves to the hand-painted details on an upcycled vanity. A gingham pillow and coordinating curtain trim round out the look. 
Splashes of yellow perk up an alfresco blue-and-white tablescape. Colored tumblers, jacquard napkins, and a floral tablecloth come together flawlessly as the centerpiece imparts lively contrast.
Shaded Oasis
Florida designer Tracy Dunn chose four different blue-and-white prints for her patio furnishings. Keeping the blue tones in the same family helps to unify the disparate patterns for a polished outcome.
Tailored Twist
Classic blue meets pretty pink in this glam bedroom. Predominately white bedding bridges the duo of chinoiserie motifs and the modish upholstered headboard.
Inviting Entry
In this cottage by the bay, a coat of brilliant blue paint on the front door and interior staircase makes for a warm welcome. The distinctive design choice is all the more striking against stark white hardwood floors. 
Special Touches
The homeowner’s wedding collection of Chinese Bouquet Blue china by Herend influenced her dining room’s palette. A sky-blue sideboard softens the dynamic navy-and-green rug, while chinoiserie chairs add a dash of drama.
