Chile (1111260) - Dulux Paints Colour Shade Card

Your Guide to Chile (1111260)

Chile (1111260) is a punchy orange 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 Chile

• Living rooms: a mid-tone adds warmth and personality without taking over.
• Dining rooms and hallways: orange brings warmth and energy to social, busy spots.
• Studies and workspaces: a steady, mid-depth wall is easy on the eye for long stints.
• Bedrooms: enough colour to feel cosy, still calm enough to relax in.

Building a Palette With Chile

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

• Teal or petrol blue - for a striking contrast.
• Charcoal - for a modern edge.
• Natural wood and leather - to warm it further.

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

Light and the Right Finish

In different light: Chile 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 - orange can look different at noon and by lamplight. A tinted base plus two coats gives a clean, consistent wall.
