About this colour

At #BAB7A6, Dove reads as a muted greige with a gentle olive cast, warm enough to stop it feeling flat but restrained enough to stay neutral. It reflects light softly rather than brightly, so it helps a room feel settled without looking heavy. In north-facing rooms it can lean a little cooler and more grey, which gives it a more tailored look. In south-facing light the beige warmth comes forward and the colour feels softer and more welcoming. It sits well beside oak, walnut, putty tones and other Zoffany neutrals, and the finish choices in Acrylic Eggshell, Elite Emulsion and True Matt give it flexibility across walls and joinery.

How to use it

Dove suits sitting rooms, bedrooms and libraries where you want the architecture to feel calm. It works well with painted woodwork in a slightly deeper neutral, or beside upholstered pieces in linen, tweed, taupe and muted green.

Dove is a balanced wall colour that stays warm without turning yellow.

Dove 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.
