What color is Dulux Flame Frenzy 1?
Dulux Flame Frenzy 1 48YR 06/091 is a deeply toned brown with a noticeable red cast, reading close to dark chestnut or smoked terracotta. Its low lightness gives it a grounded, enclosing effect on walls, especially in dining rooms, studies, or small spaces where a darker backdrop is welcome. In bright natural light, the red-brown character is likely to show more clearly, while evening lighting can make it appear richer and nearer to charcoal-brown. Flame Frenzy 1 is particularly effective on cabinetry, a fireplace surround, or a single accent wall paired with warm off-whites, clay neutrals, aged brass, and medium-to-dark wood. Pale oak, linen upholstery, and matte black details provide useful contrast without competing with the color’s depth.
