Moon Waves (1111689): Where and How to Use It

Moon Waves (1111689) is a cool blue shade by Dulux - a flexible mid-tone that works on full walls or a single feature. The cool undertone means it settles best next to cool whites and greys.

Rooms That Suit Moon Waves

  • Living rooms: a mid-tone adds warmth and personality without taking over.
  • Bathrooms and en-suites: blue brings a clean, fresh, spa-like feel to tiled rooms.
  • Bedrooms: enough colour to feel cosy, still calm enough to relax in.
  • Studies and workspaces: a steady, mid-depth wall is easy on the eye for long stints.

Building a Palette With Moon Waves

Planning colours across the home? Treat Moon Waves as a flexible base or a feature and add:

  • Natural oak or walnut - to warm up the cool tone.
  • Mustard or tan accents - for a pop of warm contrast.
  • Soft grey - for a calm, tonal scheme through the home.

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: Moon Waves stays cool and steady in daylight, warming slightly under lamps in the evening.

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

Worth Knowing

Check a tester patch morning and evening, as blue shifts with the light in a room. A tinted base plus two coats gives a clean, consistent wall.
