What color is Dulux Japanese Maze 2?

Dulux Japanese Maze 2 50GY 44/248 is a mid-tone muted green with a noticeable yellow cast, giving it the look of softened foliage rather than a blue-leaning sage. Its moderate depth keeps it present on a full wall, while the greyed quality prevents it from reading overly bright. In daylight, Japanese Maze 2 can appear fresher and more leafy; under warmer lamps, its earthy undertone becomes more apparent. It suits kitchens, garden-facing rooms, and painted cabinetry, especially alongside warm white, pale oak, natural linen, and brushed brass. For contrast, pair this shade with charcoal accents or deep olive-green details rather than icy greys.
