Warehouse District (1111779): Where and How to Use It

Warehouse District (1111779) is a deep violet shade by Dulux - a deep tone that's best saved for a feature wall rather than the whole room. The cool undertone means it settles best next to cool whites and greys.

Best Spaces for Warehouse District

• Feature and accent walls: one wall in a bold shade gives a room a strong focal point.
• Bedrooms and quiet corners: violet suits restful, slightly indulgent spaces.
• Reading rooms and studies: a darker wrap makes these rooms feel snug and easy to focus in.
• Powder rooms and cloakrooms: compact, occasional-use rooms are the safest place to go dark.

What Goes With Warehouse District

Planning colours across the home? Treat Warehouse District as a feature against paler walls and add:

• Soft grey and white - to keep it calm and elegant.
• Pale timber - to soften the depth.
• Blush or mauve - for a gentle, tonal pairing.

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

Light and the Right Finish

In different light: Warehouse District shows its depth in good light but can flatten in a dim room, so keep it where light is strong.

Best finish: A flat matt finish shows it at its richest and suits feature walls; use a washable soft-sheen in kitchens and bathrooms.

Worth Knowing

Brush a tester onto your own walls first - violet can look different at noon and by lamplight. Deep colours read best with two coats over a tinted basecoat.
