Simmering Cider (1111828): Where and How to Use It

A warm orange from Dulux, Simmering Cider (1111828) 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 Simmering Cider

  • Living rooms: a mid-tone adds warmth and personality without taking over.
  • Dining rooms and hallways: orange brings warmth and energy to social, busy spots.
  • A single feature wall: mid-tones add definition on one wall while staying versatile.
  • Studies and workspaces: a steady, mid-depth wall is easy on the eye for long stints.

Building a Palette With Simmering Cider

Planning colours across the home? Treat Simmering Cider as a flexible base or a feature and add:

  • Warm white and cream - to soften the intensity.
  • Teal or petrol blue - for a striking contrast.
  • Natural wood and leather - to warm it further.

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

Light and the Right Finish

In different light: Simmering Cider 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

Brush a tester onto your own walls first - orange can look different at noon and by lamplight. A tinted base plus two coats gives a clean, consistent wall.
