Welp, the paint gods (aka Benjamin Moore) have spoken: Blue Nova is the color you’re about to see everywhere in 2024.
The brilliant blue hue, which Benjamin Moore describes in a press release as “a sumptuous blue-violet that captures the spotlight with endlessly classic appeal,” serves as a stark contrast from previous year’s colors Raspberry Blush (2023), October Mist (2022) and Aegean Teal (2021). Unlike its predecessors, Blue Nova’s contrasting undertones “invite us to break away from the ordinary to explore new places and collect color memories that shape the hues used in our homes.”

That said, you don’t need to paint your entire living room bright blue to add some drama and dimension to your space. Furniture and decor vendors like Anthropologie and Jonathan Adler have already picked up on Benjamin Moore’s color of the year—and there are tons of playful pieces you can introduce to your home’s existing palette.
So below, find five Blue Nova-inspired items we’re loving for 2024.

1. Anthropologie Thora Rug
With opulent floral motifs and a hand-tufted construction, this blue-violet rug is sure to add some drama to a space. Not only does it have a touch of luxe sheen—bright enough to make a statement without overwhelming—but it’s also suitable for high-traffic areas, according to the brand. (Just be sure to rotate periodically for even wear.)
2. x Laguna B ‘Soul’ Candle
We mean… it doesn’t get more blueish-purple than this. Yes, this is a candle—and aside from the fact that it’s housed in a stunning, reusable glass vessel (handmade by artisans), it also smells as good as it looks. Think: uplifting notes of neroli, orange blossom and ylang-ylang that are meant to bring a moment of joy to your day.
3. Polspotten Twister Side Table
With a twisted silhouette that’s just as playful as its bold blue hue, this side table is a cheeky accent piece for a (boring) neutral corner. It measures 22 inches high and 18 inches in diameter, so it won’t take up too much space, and the purple undertones make it feminine and masculine at the same time.
4. L.L. Bean Wicked Cozy Light Blanket
The title says it all: This throw blanket is wicked soft, thanks to its 100 percent Luster Loft fleece. The 320 GSM weight means it’s thick without drowning you and the irresistible softness makes it a perfect year-round accessory. And of course, it’s the perfect shade of blue we’re looking for. (Oh, and did we mention it’s machine-washable?)
5. Jonathan Adler Scala Vase
In signature Jonathan Adler fashion, this vase takes a contemporary approach to Blue Nova. Instead of blending all of its undertones, it separates the hues with different geometric bands in blue and violet. Not only does this create visual appeal and dimension but the gold bands at the top and bottom gives it a hint of glam.
