Amberwave (1111134) - Dulux Paints Colour Shade Card

Your Guide to Amberwave (1111134)

A sunny golden from Dulux, Amberwave (1111134) is a light, easy shade that suits full walls across the home. With its warm undertone, it looks most natural alongside warm whites and natural timber.

Rooms That Suit Amberwave

• Living and family rooms: a light shade keeps everyday spaces bright and sociable.
• Kitchens and dining areas: a fresh, clean tone suits spaces where you cook and eat.
• Study and work corners: an even, bright wall keeps a workspace feeling open.
• Narrow hallways and box rooms: light colours push the walls out and add a sense of space.

What Goes With Amberwave

For a whole-home look, use Amberwave as a base to build the rest of the palette on and bring in:

• Navy or forest green - for a rich contrast.
• Brass and amber - to play up the warmth.
• Cream and off-white - to keep the warmth soft.

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: Amberwave warms up under lamps and afternoon sun, and stays soft and light in north-facing rooms.

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

Before You Start

Check a tester patch morning and evening, as golden shifts with the light in a room. Pale tones cover easily; just keep a little paint back for scuffs in busy spots.
