1. Fleece & Thank You

On top of the list is Fleece & Thank you. This organization’s website wonderfully blends a cool pop of colors with hues of blue, making it soothing to the eyes.
The photo above the fold not only complements the color palette in use but also conveys the organization’s identity and mission.
The blue color palette in use–#B68C64, #0EA2DF, #D1D0C7, #6D9795, #000000—is as playful as the clients it serves yet maintains the seriousness of the organization’s undertaking. I love it!
2. Azure Group
URL: https://www.azuregroup.com.au/
The Azure Group’s website uses simple but powerful imagery above the fold that emulates its identity and strength as an internationally-renowned financial consultant.
The website’s use of a blue color palette (#F1F7F9, #749DC8, #0A61C9, #064089, and #07326A) throughout its design is commendable.
It evokes a calming feel to those browsing its content and pages, which gives a sense of security to the company’s credibility.
3. Graco Products & Solutions
URL: https://www.graco.com/us/en.html
Graco is all about paint, which you can see in the beautiful splash of yellow (#EDB624) and blue (#0D3BC3) on the background image above the fold. This trusted paint company sure knows their colors well as seen in their website’s design.
The website’s design includes a mixture of complementary hues for its blue palette (#FAFAFA, #848EAB, #0F0E0F). It is matched with good call-to-action messages, a clean layout, and lots of white spaces. Overall, their solid design gives a soothing effect to the eyes.
4. Tex Tech Industries

The earthen tones (#6E6D72, #97885C, and #60351A) paired with the shades of blue (#1A2234 and #F6F7F7) give a sense of warmth to this company’s website.
The blue color palette in use pretty much conveys a “human side” to this company, which is a global leader in textile research and products.
I love the clean design and the hover feature that was nicely-placed above the fold. It is a good example in using color in visual heirarchy, especially through its call-to-action messaging and buttons.
5. Drone
This website’s “dreamy” look makes visitors feel they’re really above the clouds thanks to its awesome blue color scheme.
It’s a good choice of hues for its blue color palette (#FFFFFF, #EDF3FB, #CBE3EF, #5AA8D6, and #3A4163) brilliantly conveys a subliminal message of who Drone is.
The blue color palette sure did a good job of defining what “continuous integration” means since it visually blended well with the rest of the design elements used.
6. Xero
Xero’s website is another great example of one that employs well-blended design elements. It has touches of playful hues for its simple design.
I love the great shades of blue used in this website, which are #FAFCFB, #B9F0F9, #78AEC6, #0379C7, #2A6D99.
Besides the cool blue color palette in use, the website also has easy navigation and a simple design.
7. Florent Biffi
URL: https://florentbiffi.com/
Unlike the previous examples, Florent Biffi’s blue color palette for his website is unique since it is used as gradients in the design. The effect, which is paired with a stylish font, is aesthetically pleasing to the eyes.
The consistent use of the blue color palette (#E9EEF9, #A0ACDC, #7182C7, #4A5DB5, and #2238A4) in the website and its design elements is also commendable. That and the free-flowing feel as one browses its content.
8. The Depths She’ll Reach
URL: https://onjustonebreath.com/
Now this is my favorite blue color palette so far! This blue color palette (#EFF7F8, #BBCED0, #819B9E, #739498, #5E8085) is true to the hues of the deep blue sea, which is the core of this website’s heartwarming story.
After all, it is in the deep blue sea that one experiences serenity—pretty much what its color scheme is all about. A well-thought of design and presentation of one person’s struggle to overcome depression and achieve self-mastery.
9. TROA Agence (Re) Creative
URL: https://www.troa.fr/agence
This French creative communication agency effectively used a blue color palette to match other design elements such as fonts and photos.
I love the playful hues in its blue color palette (#C8A67B, #E6E4E2, #A4BBDD, #273267, and #37312B) that is paired with awesome font types!
I also admire the consistency of using the color scheme throughout the website event to the littlest of images. Not to mention the simple yet animated effects used.
10. Blocksy
URL: https://creativethemes.com/blocksy/
Last but not the least is Blocksy’s website. I find this a helpful website with a minimalist blue color palette design (#EFF8F8, #92B2DC, #3E7FE9, #125BFB, and #1953D6).
Similar to that of Azure Group’s, the Blocksy’s website employs a soothing feel to the eyes. It employs call-to-action buttons using the blue color palette, which are strategically placed in the design.
The website’s design is very simple but trendy—thanks to a good choice of photos, special effects, and non-conventional layout.
