What color is Dulux Atlantic Surf 6?

Dulux Atlantic Surf 6 30BB 72/034 is a light, muted blue-grey with a clean, cool cast. Its pale #D7DCE0 appearance gives walls a softly shaded look rather than a strongly coloured blue finish. In bright daylight, Atlantic Surf 6 can read as an airy silvery grey with a hint of blue, while lower or cooler artificial light may bring its blue undertone forward. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and quiet living areas, especially alongside crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, or grey-veined stone. For contrast, pair this color with deeper slate blues, charcoal accents, or warm natural timber.
