What color is Dulux Misty Sky?

Dulux Misty Sky 70BG 57/082 is a light, muted blue-grey with a gentle cool cast and a slight blue-green lean. Its soft, low-saturation character keeps it from reading as overly icy, while the pale depth gives walls an airy but still defined finish. In daylight, the blue notes are likely to feel clearer; under warmer artificial light, the greyed quality may become more noticeable. Use it in bedrooms, bathrooms, or home offices alongside crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, and charcoal details. Misty Sky also suits cabinetry or a painted ceiling when paired with warmer off-whites and natural linen textures.
