Dulux Purple Polka 5 10RB 68/081 is a pale, greyed lavender with a soft blue-violet cast. Its high lightness keeps it airy on large walls, while the restrained saturation prevents it from reading as overly sweet or pastel. In daylight, this color appears clean and lightly lilac; under warm artificial light, its grey base may become more noticeable. Purple Polka 5 suits bedrooms, nurseries, and quiet reading corners, and can also bring a subtle wash of color to cabinetry. Pair it with soft white trim, charcoal accents, pale oak, brushed nickel, or muted blue-grey textiles for a considered finish.
