I'm redecorating DS's bedroom whch is quite small and only gets the sun in the morning. It's currently quite a warm mid-ish to pale blue.

Am trying to find an elusive light colour which is one of those you look at and can't quite decide if it's grey, blue or green, if you know what I mean? After countless trips to B & Q I'm still no futher forward.

Please help me! If I can't decide on something soon I know DH will take matters into his own hands and paint it all boring white!

Parma grey by farrow and ball?

We have it in a ne living room and it goes from light grey to pale blue in the evening

I love this colour , it’s just a BS colour ref so you can buy it in lots of finishes, but I love it. It’s just the right balance of fresh and muted.

Dulux tranquil dawn?

I would say Light Blue by Farrow & Ball is exactly what you’re describing. Johnstones do reasonable colour matches of F&B (not bang on but not bad).

Great site for finding colour matches. Skylight and Borrowed Light by F&B are good pale Grey's with a bit of character.

Farrow and ball mizzle or the paler one in the same group Cromarty. Dulux tranquil dawn or to go darker farrow abd ball pigeon x

Look at Wilko paint - I know Farrow and Ball are very popular but I did a search online and asked for the best paint with the best coverage and Wilko came out top. My son has just bought a flat and we painted a few rooms with Cosy Grey matt emulsion - sometimes you look and think it's a bit green looking, other times with a bit of blue. £16 for 2.5L and it covered over flowery wallpaper very very well so we have quite a lot left. Depending on your accessories it is a colour that changes with the room.

Apologies if it has been suggested already, but have you thought of Goblin? It is a gorgeous blue green.

F&B light blue. I had it for a while and it changed colour with the light from blue to green and grey. Really restful too, would look lovely in a bedroom

Wickes Chinois is nice.

Agree with Light Blue (colour matched as well).
