# Dulux Gentle Gold 1

Source: [https://plan-home.com/color/gentle-gold-1](https://plan-home.com/color/gentle-gold-1)

Dulux Gentle Gold 1 20YY 63/149 is a light, muted golden beige with a soft sandy cast rather than a bright yellow finish. Its warm undertone is noticeable, but the low saturation keeps it grounded and easy on the eye across larger wall areas. In daylight, Gentle Gold 1 reads as a pale biscuit-neutral; under warm evening bulbs, its golden-beige character becomes more apparent. It suits living rooms, hallways, and bedrooms where a warmer alternative to off-white is wanted without making the room feel dark. Pair it with creamy whites, natural oak, woven linen, and clay or muted olive accents for a layered, earthy scheme.
