What color is Dulux Coral Canyon 3?

Dulux Coral Canyon 3 60YR 59/261 is a light, warm coral-peach with a noticeable pink-orange cast. Its pale value keeps the color airy on broad walls, while the warmth gives it more presence than a standard cream or blush. In daylight, Coral Canyon 3 reads as a clean apricot-tinged peach; under warmer lamps, its rosy coral side becomes more apparent. It suits bedrooms, dining areas, and sunlit hallways, and can also make a gentle statement on a painted dresser or interior door. Pair it with chalky white trim, sandy beige textiles, pale oak, or muted olive accents to ground its warmth.
