# Dulux Cornflower White

Source: [https://plan-home.com/color/cornflower-white](https://plan-home.com/color/cornflower-white)

Dulux Cornflower White is a pale, softened off-white with a gentle grey-green cast that keeps it from looking stark. Its low saturation gives walls a quiet, lightly misted appearance, especially alongside crisp white trim. In north-facing rooms, Cornflower White may read cooler and more silvery, while warmer daylight can bring out its muted green undertone. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and open-plan living areas where a clean but less clinical alternative to pure white is wanted. Pair it with warm oak, brushed nickel, soft charcoal, or muted sage accents to make its subtle colouring feel intentional.
