Complimenting color help
Can someone tell me what accent colors I can put with navy blue? Not red, white or dark green.
Thanks!

cdallke Thanks. I don't care for yellow, too traditional looking. I am looking for bold and modern. :)

ASVInteriors On the colour wheel the complementary colour for blue is orange - I have seen this done amazingly:

Geometric patterns are in right now so combining blues with orange work very well;

olldroo You don't say what room this is for, which would have an impact on how you would use the colours. Love the green bedroom groveraxle posted.

My opinion is definitely orange and lime but you do need to put white with it, it will make the room look fresher and the colours will really pop.
