What color is Dulux Pressed Blueberry?
Dulux Pressed Blueberry 70BB 14/202 is a muted, medium-dark blue with a noticeable slate cast and a subtle violet lean. Its softened saturation keeps it from reading as a bright primary blue, giving walls a grounded, slightly smoky appearance. In daylight, the blue character is clearer, while lower or warmer light can bring out its greyed, inky depth. Use it in studies, dining rooms, bedrooms, or on painted cabinetry where a deeper colour is wanted without the heaviness of near-black. Pair Pressed Blueberry with chalky whites, pale grey-blue, warm oak, brushed brass, or linen upholstery for contrast and texture.
