What color is Dulux Ink Well?
Dulux Ink Well 89BG 09/087 is a deep, muted blue-grey with a noticeable cool cast and a slight green-blue edge. Its low lightness gives walls a grounded, enclosing look, especially in studies, dining rooms, or bedrooms with ample natural light. In bright daylight, the blue-grey character reads more clearly, while evening lighting can draw out its darker charcoal side. Use Ink Well on cabinetry, interior doors, or a single wall alongside pale stone, warm oak, brushed brass, and soft off-whites. For a more tonal scheme, pair it with mid-grey textiles and smoky blue accessories rather than crisp, high-contrast whites.
