What color is Dulux Summer Medley 4?

Dulux Summer Medley 4 50BG 72/170 is a light, clear blue with a distinct aqua cast, sitting closer to a softened blue-green than a powder blue. Its high lightness keeps the color airy on broad walls, while the clean saturation prevents it from fading into a neutral. In bright daylight, Summer Medley 4 can read crisp and watery; under warmer evening lighting, its blue-green character may appear gentler and slightly more muted. It suits bathrooms, laundry rooms, children’s spaces, and sunlit bedrooms where a fresh cool note is wanted without using a dark or intense shade. Pair it with clean white trim, pale oak, light limestone, brushed nickel, or deeper teal accents for contrast.
