What color is Dulux Quiet Hideaway?
Dulux Quiet Hideaway 81YY 81/016 is a very light, low-saturation off-white with a soft grey cast and the faintest hint of warmth. Its near-neutral character keeps walls looking clean without reading as stark white, especially alongside crisp white trim. In daylight, this color appears pale and lightly shadowed; under warm evening lighting, its subtle beige-grey undertone becomes a little more noticeable. Quiet Hideaway suits bedrooms, hallways, and open-plan living areas where a quiet backdrop is needed, and it also makes a restrained choice for cabinetry. Pair it with natural oak, pale stone, brushed nickel, charcoal accents, or muted taupe textiles for a layered neutral scheme.

LRV of Quiet Hideaway
Quiet Hideaway has an LRV of 79.72% and refers to Off‑White colors that reflect a lot of light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 79.72%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
