Heirloom (1111814): Where and How to Use It

Heirloom (1111814) is a warm pink 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.

Best Spaces for Heirloom

• Living and family rooms: a light shade keeps everyday spaces bright and sociable.
• Bedrooms and dressing rooms: a soft pink feels gentle, warm and flattering.
• Kitchens and dining areas: a fresh, clean tone suits spaces where you cook and eat.
• Narrow hallways and box rooms: light colours push the walls out and add a sense of space.

Building a Palette With Heirloom

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

• Deep green or navy - for a confident contrast.
• Warm white and cream - to give the eye somewhere to rest.
• Brass or blush - to soften or lift the tone.

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

Light and the Right Finish

In different light: Heirloom 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.

Before You Start

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