What color is Dulux Auburn Falls 2?

Dulux Auburn Falls 2 39YR 14/482 is a deep, earthy red-orange with a distinctly rusted, clay-like character. Its rich saturation gives it enough weight for a dining room, hallway, or snug, particularly when used on a single feature wall or painted cabinetry. In bright daylight, the orange-red notes are more apparent, while lower or warmer lighting can make the shade look deeper and browner. Pair Auburn Falls 2 with warm off-whites, muted sand tones, dark timber, aged brass, and natural leather to reinforce its grounded look. For contrast, softened blue-grey textiles or green foliage can keep this color from feeling too dense.
