Light Lime (1114255): Where and How to Use It

Light Lime (1114255) is a cheerful lime green 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 Light Lime

• 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.
• Bedrooms: pale walls feel restful and make mornings a little easier.

Building a Palette With Light Lime

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

• White and pale grey - to balance the brightness.
• Charcoal accents - to ground the zing.
• Natural wood - for a relaxed, fresh feel.

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

Light and the Right Finish

In different light: Light Lime 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 lime green shifts with the light in a room. Pale tones cover easily; just keep a little paint back for scuffs in busy spots.
