Art/Literary - Architecture
English term or phrase: blue-cream
Esiste una denominazione specifica di questo colore?

Contesto: architettura e arredamento di interni.

The round plaster feature on the ceiling of the atrium is set into wooden fibreboard - is blue-cream in colour, with its tiny recess painted in gold. The pillars are of blasted concrete.

Grazie per ogni suggerimento!

Blu tenue
Explanation:
Non credo che esista un equivalente specifico ma è un blu a cui è stato aggiunto del bianco caldo o grigio credo.
Se hai una foto magari si capisce meglio.
Si usa ad esempio nei gatti per definire un colore grigio-azzurro

neutral  Lisa Jane: blue-crema credo si usa solo per lo standard dei gatti e il ref di Amazon si riferisce a un copripiumino che ha i colori blu, panna e marrone non un colore che si chiama blu-crema, così anche per il terzo link:)
