Ocean Spray (1111736) - Dulux Paints Colour Shade Card

Your Guide to Ocean Spray (1111736)

Ocean Spray (1111736) is a crisp teal shade by Dulux - a light, easy shade that suits full walls across the home. The cool undertone means it settles best next to cool whites and greys.

Rooms That Suit Ocean Spray

• Living and family rooms: a light shade keeps everyday spaces bright and sociable.
• Kitchens and bathrooms: teal reads crisp and lively against white tiles and wood.
• Bedrooms: pale walls feel restful and make mornings a little easier.
• Narrow hallways and box rooms: light colours push the walls out and add a sense of space.

Building a Palette With Ocean Spray

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

• Brass or gold fittings - to lift the cool tone.
• Warm white - to keep it clean and bright.
• Pale wood and rattan - for a relaxed, natural feel.

A shared accent between two rooms is an easy way to make the whole home feel considered.

Light and the Right Finish

In different light: Ocean Spray keeps its crisp, cool look in daylight and turns a little softer under warm bulbs.

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

Brush a tester onto your own walls first - teal can look different at noon and by lamplight. A second thin coat evens it out, and a leftover tin handles later marks.
