What color is Dulux Autumn Fern 2?

Dulux Autumn Fern 2 60YR 24/439 is a warm, earthy orange-brown with a clear clay-like depth. Its muted red and ochre undertones keep the color grounded rather than bright, making it especially effective for a dining room, entryway, or sunlit living space. In strong daylight, Autumn Fern 2 can read as a softened terracotta, while lower evening light brings out its deeper brown-red character. Use it across full walls where a substantial color is wanted, or on cabinetry and a fireplace surround for a more contained statement. Pair this shade with creamy off-whites, dusty pinks, olive greens, natural timber, aged brass, and woven textures.
