What color is Dulux Niagara Blues 5?

Dulux Niagara Blues 5 10BB 64/052 is a light, muted blue-grey with a distinctly cool cast. Its soft grey content keeps the blue from feeling sugary or overly bright, giving it a clean, airy appearance on broad walls.

It suits bathrooms, bedrooms, and quiet home offices, particularly alongside crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, or charcoal accents. Use this shade across full walls for a gentle wash of color, or on cabinetry where its restrained blue tone can add definition without dominating the room.
