Obelisk (1111205): Where and How to Use It

Obelisk (1111205) is an inviting warm neutral 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 Obelisk

• Living rooms: a mid-tone adds warmth and personality without taking over.
• Whole-home walls and hallways: a warm neutral flows well between rooms and feels welcoming.
• A single feature wall: mid-tones add definition on one wall while staying versatile.
• Bedrooms: enough colour to feel cosy, still calm enough to relax in.

Building a Palette With Obelisk

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

• Natural oak and linen - to add warmth and texture.
• White and ivory - for a soft, layered neutral.
• Muted green or blue - for a gentle colour lift.

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

Light and the Right Finish

In different light: Obelisk 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

Check a tester patch morning and evening, as warm neutral shifts with the light in a room. A tinted base plus two coats gives a clean, consistent wall.
