What color is Dulux Atlas Blue?

Dulux Atlas Blue 10BG 63/097 is a light, softened blue-green with a misty, low-saturation appearance. Its gentle green cast keeps it from reading like a traditional sky blue, giving walls a clean wash of color without strong contrast. In bright daylight, Atlas Blue can appear airy and slightly cooler, while warmer artificial light may bring out more of its muted green undertone. It suits bathrooms, laundry rooms, and bedrooms, especially alongside warm white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, and soft grey textiles. For more definition, pair this shade with deep charcoal, inky blue, or muted terracotta accents.
