What color is Dulux Dusted Moss 1?

Dulux Dusted Moss 1 50YY 33/065 is a muted, mid-tone grey-beige with a noticeable earthy yellow-green cast. Its softened, low-saturation appearance keeps it from reading as a strong olive, instead giving walls a weathered khaki character. In bright daylight, the warm mineral undertone is more apparent, while lower or cooler light can bring out its quieter grey side. Dusted Moss 1 suits studies, hallways, kitchens, and living rooms where a grounded neutral is wanted without using plain beige. Pair it with chalky off-whites, deep brown timber, aged brass, black metal, and natural linen for a layered, practical interior.
