Artifact (1111862): Where and How to Use It

Artifact (1111862) is a vivid yellow shade by Dulux - a flexible mid-tone that works on full walls or a single feature. The warm undertone means it settles best next to warm whites and natural timber.

Rooms That Suit Artifact

• Living rooms: a mid-tone adds warmth and personality without taking over.
• Breakfast rooms and kitchens: yellow keeps morning spaces bright and cheerful.
• Bedrooms: enough colour to feel cosy, still calm enough to relax in.
• A single feature wall: mid-tones add definition on one wall while staying versatile.

What Goes With Artifact

For a whole-home look, use Artifact as a flexible base or a feature and bring in:

• Grey or charcoal - for a smart contrast.
• White and soft grey - to keep it clean and bright.
• Pale wood - for a sunny, natural feel.

Threading one pairing from space to space keeps everything looking deliberate.

Light and the Right Finish

In different light: Artifact richens under warm light and sun, and settles to an even tone in cooler, north light.

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 yellow shifts with the light in a room. Over a tinted primer, a mid-tone builds to full colour in two coats.
