Behr English Channel PPU14-19 is a medium-dark blue-gray with a muted, slate-like cast. Its cool blue character is softened by enough gray to keep it from reading overly bright or nautical. In daylight, English Channel can show a clearer dusty blue presence, while lower or warmer light tends to bring out its deeper charcoal-blue side. It has enough depth for a study, bedroom, or dining room wall, especially with crisp white trim or pale gray-beige upholstery. On cabinetry, this shade pairs well with brushed nickel, matte black hardware, light oak, and veined white stone.
