Wall paint - Blue Gray No. 91

About Blue Gray No. 91

Blue Gray is a little more complex than its name suggests. Depending on the light, it can appear more blue, then gray, and sometimes even green. A small dose of black pigment gives it a relaxed, slightly greyed character. As a less intense version of French Gray, it works well anywhere.

Color effect & light

Blue Gray brings nature indoors and appears fresh, deep, or cozy depending on the light. Due to its high pigmentation, the tone changes with the daylight: softer in the morning, deeper in the evening.
