Your Guide to Coconut (1111612)

Coconut (1111612) 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 Coconut

• Living and family rooms: a light shade keeps everyday spaces bright and sociable.
• Breakfast rooms and kitchens: yellow keeps morning spaces bright and cheerful.
• Study and work corners: an even, bright wall keeps a workspace feeling open.
• Narrow hallways and box rooms: light colours push the walls out and add a sense of space.

Building a Palette With Coconut

Planning colours across the home? Treat Coconut as a base to build the rest of the palette on and add:

• Soft blue or sage - as a cool balance.
• Pale wood - for a sunny, natural feel.
• 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: Coconut 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

Brush a tester onto your own walls first - yellow can look different at noon and by lamplight. Pale tones cover easily; just keep a little paint back for scuffs in busy spots.
