Jet Age (1112015): Where and How to Use It

A bold blue from Dulux, Jet Age (1112015) is a deep tone that's best saved for a feature wall rather than the whole room. With its cool undertone, it looks most natural alongside cool whites and greys.

Best Spaces for Jet Age

• 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.
• Powder rooms and cloakrooms: compact, occasional-use rooms are the safest place to go dark.

Building a Palette With Jet Age

Planning colours across the home? Treat Jet Age as a feature against paler walls and add:

• Soft grey - for a calm, tonal scheme through the home.
• Natural oak or walnut - to warm up the cool tone.
• Crisp white - on trims and ceilings, so the blue stays fresh.

A shared accent between two rooms is an easy way to make the whole home feel considered.

Light and the Right Finish

In different light: Jet Age 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

Brush a tester onto your own walls first - blue can look different at noon and by lamplight. A tinted primer and a second coat keep the depth even, with no patchiness.
