Lemon Grass (1112277): Where and How to Use It

A warm lime green from Dulux, Lemon Grass (1112277) is a light, easy shade that suits full walls across the home. With its warm undertone, it looks most natural alongside warm whites and natural timber.

Rooms That Suit Lemon Grass

• Living and family rooms: a light shade keeps everyday spaces bright and sociable.
• Kitchens and kids' rooms: lime brings a lively, energetic lift to busy spaces.
• 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 Lemon Grass

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

• White and pale grey - to balance the brightness.
• Charcoal accents - to ground the zing.
• Soft teal - as a cool companion.

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

Light and the Right Finish

In different light: Lemon Grass 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 - lime green can look different at noon and by lamplight. Pale tones cover easily; just keep a little paint back for scuffs in busy spots.
