What color is Dulux City Fog?
Dulux City Fog 16GY 15/037 is a deep, muted grey-green with a softly earthy cast. Its low saturation keeps the green restrained, reading almost like weathered charcoal in dim rooms while daylight brings out its subtle olive undertone. City Fog gives studies, dining rooms, and hallways a grounded backdrop without looking flat. It is particularly effective on cabinetry or a full wall paired with warm off-whites, natural oak, aged brass, and stone finishes. For contrast, use it alongside pale plaster tones or dark brown-black details rather than bright, icy whites.

What are Dulux City Fog undertones?
City Fog is a midtone, very muted muted olive. The HEX sample has a subtle yellow-green bias, but its low chroma turns that hue into a neutral-looking color rather than a clear yellow-green. Warm light can make it look more olive and earthy, while cool daylight usually makes the green direction easier to notice.
