About this colour

This shade reads as a muted blue-green with enough grey in it to soften the colour on the wall, so it feels calm rather than sharp. In north-facing light it can look cooler and a touch deeper, bringing out the grey-blue side of the colour. In south-facing rooms it lifts more, showing its gentle teal warmth and holding its colour without going washed out. It works well beside pale oak, walnut, and painted joinery in off-white, as well as upholstery in navy, sage, or natural linen tones.

How to use it

Use Dearle in living rooms, studies, or bedrooms where a steady blue is wanted. It suits painted woodwork in crisp white or deeper green-blue shades, and sits neatly beside patterned upholstery with botanical or Morris-style notes.

A calm blue-green wall colour that feels composed and easy to live with.
