What color is Dulux Summer Medley 5?

Dulux Summer Medley 5 50BG 74/130 is a light, airy blue with a clear aqua cast, sitting closer to a pale blue-green than a traditional sky blue. Its high lightness keeps it open and fresh on broad walls, while the gentle saturation prevents it from feeling icy. In daylight, this color can show its clean blue-green character most clearly; under warmer artificial light, it may appear softer and slightly more muted. It suits bathrooms, laundry rooms, breezy bedrooms, and ceiling details, especially alongside crisp white trim, pale oak, limestone, or brushed nickel. Pair Summer Medley 5 with soft chalky whites and muted blue-greens for a quiet tonal scheme, or add deep navy accents for sharper contrast.
