About this colour

This shade reads as a gentle blue-grey with a cool base and just enough pale warmth to stop it feeling stark. Its light value helps it lift a room, but the grey undertone keeps it composed and easy to live with. In north-facing light it can look cooler and a little more silvery, while in south-facing rooms the blue comes forward and the colour feels clearer and fresher. It sits well beside natural oak, painted joinery in deeper blues, and upholstery in flax, stone, or chalky neutrals. On woodwork it gives a neat, understated contrast without becoming sharp.

How to use it

It suits bedrooms, sitting rooms, and panelled spaces where a calm blue is wanted without too much colour. Pair it with pale oak, walnut, or linen-covered furniture, and with curtains or upholstery in muted grey, putty, or sea-washed tones.

A pale blue-grey that stays calm and easy on the wall.
