What color is Dulux Winter Teal 3?

Dulux Winter Teal 3 70BG 43/103 is a light, muted blue with a noticeable grey cast that keeps it soft rather than bright. Its cool blue-green direction is subtle, giving walls a clean, lightly coastal look without reading as a strong teal. In daylight, this color can appear airy and blue-forward; under warmer bulbs, the grey undertone becomes more apparent. Use it across bedroom, bathroom, or home-office walls for a gentle wash of color, or on painted cabinetry where a low-contrast finish is wanted. Pair Winter Teal 3 with crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, charcoal accents, or warm off-white textiles to give the cool tone some contrast.
