About this colour

At #6C7892, Pale Lupin reads as a cool, subdued blue with enough grey in it to stop it feeling sharp. On a wall it lifts light gently without going chalky, giving a room colour and depth at the same time. In a north-facing room it will feel more restrained and steelier, while in south-facing light the blue comes forward a little more and the grey note softens. It works well beside pale oak, walnut, and painted woodwork in off-white, and it sits comfortably with linen, wool, and patterned upholstery in muted greens, taupes, and deeper indigos.

How to use it

Use it in a sitting room, study, or bedroom where you want a calm blue backdrop that does not overpower the furniture. It pairs especially well with natural timber, cream-painted joinery, and upholstery in moss, stone, or faded navy.

A muted blue on the wall that feels cooler in north light and softer in south light.
