A cool blue from Dulux, Big Chill (1114348) is a light, easy shade that suits full walls across the home. With its cool undertone, it looks most natural alongside cool whites and greys.

Rooms That Suit Big Chill

• Living and family rooms: a light shade keeps everyday spaces bright and sociable.

• Study and work corners: an even, bright wall keeps a workspace feeling open.
• Narrow hallways and box rooms: light colours push the walls out and add a sense of space.

Building a Palette With Big Chill

Planning colours across the home? Treat Big Chill as a base to build the rest of the palette on and add:

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

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

Light and the Right Finish

In different light: Big Chill keeps its crisp, cool look in daylight and turns a little softer under warm bulbs.

Best finish: A matt finish looks smooth and modern in living rooms and bedrooms; use a washable soft-sheen in kitchens, bathrooms and hallways.

Before You Start

Check a tester patch morning and evening, as blue shifts with the light in a room. Pale tones cover easily; just keep a little paint back for scuffs in busy spots.
