What color is Dulux Blue View?

Dulux Blue View 30BG 43/163 is a softened blue with a noticeable green cast, giving it the look of lightly weathered sea glass rather than a sharp primary blue. Its mid-light value keeps it present on a wall without making the room feel dark, while the muted saturation prevents it from reading overly bright. In clear daylight, Blue View can appear fresher and more blue-green; under warmer evening lamps, its greyed quality becomes more apparent. It suits bathrooms, bedrooms, and north-facing living spaces, especially alongside crisp white trim, pale oak, limestone, and brushed nickel. For a more grounded scheme, pair this shade with charcoal accents or deep blue-green cabinetry.
