Your Guide to Princess Emerald (1112057)

An easy green from Dulux, Princess Emerald (1112057) is a flexible mid-tone that works on full walls or a single feature. With its green undertone, it looks most natural alongside off-whites and natural textures.

Rooms That Suit Princess Emerald

• Living rooms: a mid-tone adds warmth and personality without taking over.
• Studies and garden rooms: green links a room to the outdoors and helps you focus.
• 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 Princess Emerald

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

• Terracotta or ochre - for an earthy, warm accent.
• Wood and rattan - to echo the outdoors.
• Off-white and cream - to keep it light and natural.

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: Princess Emerald holds a steady tone through the day, with only small shifts as the light changes.

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 green shifts with the light in a room. Over a tinted primer, a mid-tone builds to full colour in two coats.
