About this colour

This shade reads cool overall, with a muted mineral cast that keeps it calm on the wall. It reflects a fair amount of light for a mid-tone grey, so it can feel open rather than heavy, while still holding its own beside richer colours. In a north-facing room it will look more blue and slightly cooler, with the grey edge becoming sharper. In south-facing light the colour softens and warms a little, showing more of its balanced grey character. It works well beside pale oak, walnut, painted joinery in white or black, and upholstery in stone, ink, soft silver or deep navy.

How to use it

Use it in a sitting room, study or hallway where you want a restrained wall colour that still has presence. It suits crisp woodwork in white or charcoal, and it sits comfortably beside upholstery in muted blue, grey, linen or leather tones.

A balanced blue-grey that stays smart on the wall and changes gently with the light.

Double Quartz Grey is a wall colour, so these are the cloths that sit against it: one of them on the curtains, the paint behind. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.
