What color is Dulux Niagara Blues 1?

Dulux Niagara Blues 1 10BB 15/154 is a muted mid-to-deep blue with a softened, slightly greyed cast. Its cool character gives it a composed look on walls, particularly in studies, bedrooms, or bathrooms with good natural light. In brighter conditions, the blue reads clearer and lighter, while evening light brings out its more shaded, slate-like depth. Pair Niagara Blues 1 with warm white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, or soft putty neutrals to keep the scheme grounded. It also makes a strong choice for painted cabinetry or a single architectural feature such as a bookcase or fireplace surround.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).

Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 12.94%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
