Butterscotch Tempest (1111113) - Dulux Paints Colour Shade Card

Your Guide to Butterscotch Tempest (1111113)

Butterscotch Tempest (1111113) is a vivid golden 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.

Best Spaces for Butterscotch Tempest

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

Building a Palette With Butterscotch Tempest

Planning colours across the home? Treat Butterscotch Tempest as a flexible base or a feature and add:

• Deep brown or walnut - to ground the glow.
• Navy or forest green - for a rich contrast.
• Brass and amber - to play up the warmth.

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

Light and the Right Finish

In different light: Butterscotch Tempest 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.

Before You Start

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.
