Azteca (1111105) - Dulux Paints Colour Shade Card

Your Guide to Azteca (1111105)

A vivid golden from Dulux, Azteca (1111105) is a flexible mid-tone that works on full walls or a single feature. With its warm undertone, it looks most natural alongside warm whites and natural timber.

Best Spaces for Azteca

• Living rooms: a mid-tone adds warmth and personality without taking over.
• Dining rooms: a grounded tone makes meals feel warm and settled.
• A single feature wall: mid-tones add definition on one wall while staying versatile.
• Studies and workspaces: a steady, mid-depth wall is easy on the eye for long stints.

Building a Palette With Azteca

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

• Brass and amber - to play up the warmth.
• Deep brown or walnut - to ground the glow.
• Cream and off-white - to keep the warmth soft.

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

Light and the Right Finish

In different light: Azteca 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

Brush a tester onto your own walls first - golden can look different at noon and by lamplight. Over a tinted primer, a mid-tone builds to full colour in two coats.
