Uplifting (1111567) - Dulux Paints Colour Shade Card

Your Guide to Uplifting (1111567)

A warm golden from Dulux, Uplifting (1111567) is a light, easy shade that suits full walls across the home. With its warm undertone, it looks most natural alongside warm whites and natural timber.

Rooms That Suit Uplifting

• Living and family rooms: a light shade keeps everyday spaces bright and sociable.
• Kitchens and dining areas: a fresh, clean tone suits spaces where you cook and eat.
• 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 Uplifting

For a whole-home look, use Uplifting as a base to build the rest of the palette on and bring in:

• Navy or forest green - for a rich contrast.
• Cream and off-white - to keep the warmth soft.
• Brass and amber - to play up the warmth.

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: Uplifting warms up under lamps and afternoon sun, and stays soft and light in north-facing rooms.

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

Check a tester patch morning and evening, as golden shifts with the light in a room. Pale tones cover easily; just keep a little paint back for scuffs in busy spots.
