What color is Dulux Liberty Blue 2?

Dulux Liberty Blue 2 70BG 25/220 is a medium blue with a clear blue-green cast, close to a softened teal rather than a navy or pure sky blue. Its cool character is noticeable, while the slightly muted saturation keeps it from looking overly bright on large walls. In daylight, this shade can read cleaner and bluer; under warmer artificial light, its green notes may become more apparent. It suits bathrooms, utility rooms, coastal-inspired bedrooms, or a painted front door where a defined but not overly dark color is wanted. Pair Liberty Blue 2 with crisp white trim, pale grey, light oak, brushed nickel, or sandy beige textiles for contrast.
