Rough Hewn (1111191): Where and How to Use It

An inviting warm neutral from Dulux, Rough Hewn (1111191) is a flexible mid-tone that works on full walls or a single feature. With its warm undertone, it looks most natural alongside warm whites and natural timber.

Best Spaces for Rough Hewn

• 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.
• Dining rooms: a grounded tone makes meals feel warm and settled.
• A single feature wall: mid-tones add definition on one wall while staying versatile.

What Goes With Rough Hewn

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

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

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: Rough Hewn 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.

Before You Start

Brush a tester onto your own walls first - warm neutral can look different at noon and by lamplight. Over a tinted primer, a mid-tone builds to full colour in two coats.
