What color is Interlude? It's a dark warm blue with the hex code #382A59. Interlude has a warm (pink) undertone, which affects how it pairs with trim, flooring, and adjacent wall colors. With an LRV of 7, Interlude creates a dramatic, enveloping mood — best on accent walls, dining rooms, and intimate spaces where atmosphere matters more than reflected light.
