# Dulux Celtic Forest 3

Source: [https://plan-home.com/color/celtic-forest-3](https://plan-home.com/color/celtic-forest-3)

Dulux Celtic Forest 3 90YY 52/138 is a muted light yellow-beige with a noticeable grey cast that keeps it from reading overly creamy. Its soft, slightly earthy appearance makes it well suited to broad wall areas in living rooms, hallways, or bedrooms where a pale neutral is wanted without a stark white finish. In daylight, Celtic Forest 3 can show more of its subdued yellow warmth, while lower or cooler artificial light may bring its grey-beige side forward. Pair it with chalky whites, faded olive accents, warm wood, linen upholstery, and brushed brass for a grounded, natural-looking scheme.
