Bayshore (1111708): Where and How to Use It

Bayshore (1111708) is a dramatic blue shade by Dulux - a deep tone that's best saved for a feature wall rather than the whole room. The cool undertone means it settles best next to cool whites and greys.

Best Spaces for Bayshore

• Feature and accent walls: one wall in a bold shade gives a room a strong focal point.
• Bathrooms and en-suites: blue brings a clean, fresh, spa-like feel to tiled rooms.
• Reading rooms and studies: a darker wrap makes these rooms feel snug and easy to focus in.
• Home theatres and TV rooms: deep colours cut screen glare and make the space feel immersive.

What Goes With Bayshore

For a whole-home look, use Bayshore as a feature against paler walls and bring in:

• Mustard or tan accents - for a pop of warm contrast.
• Crisp white - on trims and ceilings, so the blue stays fresh.
• Natural oak or walnut - to warm up the cool tone.

Threading one pairing from space to space keeps everything looking deliberate.

Light and the Right Finish

In different light: Bayshore shows its depth in good light but can flatten in a dim room, so keep it where light is strong.

Best finish: A flat matt finish shows it at its richest and suits feature walls; use a washable soft-sheen in kitchens and bathrooms.

Worth Knowing

Check a tester patch morning and evening, as blue shifts with the light in a room. Deep colours read best with two coats over a tinted basecoat.
