Resene Indian Ink

Resene Indian ink is a deep, dark blue that’s just a shade darker than black. Sometimes called midnight blue, this hue is modern, gorgeous and sophisticated in the home and serves as an unexpected neutral in a chic wardrobe. Because this shade is so dark, it’s well-suited for formal wear for both men and women. In fact, it’s often used as an alternative to black in this setting. Midnight blue can also keep sweet silhouettes and girly frills from looking to precious, so choose this hue for edgy appeal. For casual wear, spice up this deep blue with a pop of pink or orange. These neon brights remain one of the foremost fashion trends of the past several years and show no signs of stopping. Resene Indian ink looks dramatic and moody when used in a bedroom or study. We love this shade in a monochromatic palette with blues from sky to azure and beyond. Try it with crisp white and vibrant yellow for a modern, sophisticated aesthetic. Brass fixtures and rich jewel tones amp up the drama. As with other shades of blue, Resene Indian ink has a calming, restorative effect that makes it a popular choice for home decor. This is the color to choose if you find that navy and indigo just aren’t dark enough, but black and charcoal seem too stark.
