Celestial Sun (1111889): Where and How to Use It

Celestial Sun (1111889) is a light yellow shade by Dulux - a light, easy shade that suits full walls across the home. The warm undertone means it settles best next to warm whites and natural timber.

Rooms That Suit Celestial Sun

• Living and family rooms: a light shade keeps everyday spaces bright and sociable.
• Breakfast rooms and kitchens: yellow keeps morning spaces bright and cheerful.
• Narrow hallways and box rooms: light colours push the walls out and add a sense of space.
• Bedrooms: pale walls feel restful and make mornings a little easier.

What Goes With Celestial Sun

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

• Pale wood - for a sunny, natural feel.
• Soft blue or sage - as a cool balance.
• White and soft grey - to keep it clean and bright.

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

Light and the Right Finish

In different light: Celestial Sun 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.

Worth Knowing

Check a tester patch morning and evening, as yellow shifts with the light in a room. A second thin coat evens it out, and a leftover tin handles later marks.
