Sun Rays (1111271) - Dulux Paints Colour Shade Card

Your Guide to Sun Rays (1111271)

Sun Rays (1111271) is a bold golden 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.

Rooms That Suit Sun Rays

• Living rooms: a mid-tone adds warmth and personality without taking over.
• A single feature wall: mid-tones add definition on one wall while staying versatile.
• Dining rooms: a grounded tone makes meals feel warm and settled.
• Bedrooms: enough colour to feel cosy, still calm enough to relax in.

What Goes With Sun Rays

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

• Deep brown or walnut - to ground the glow.
• Cream and off-white - to keep the warmth soft.
• Navy or forest green - for a rich contrast.

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: Sun Rays 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 - golden can look different at noon and by lamplight. A tinted base plus two coats gives a clean, consistent wall.
