# Dulux Japanese Maze 3

Source: [https://plan-home.com/color/japanese-maze-3](https://plan-home.com/color/japanese-maze-3)

Dulux Japanese Maze 3 50GY 55/207 is a light, muted green with a noticeable yellow cast, giving it a soft leafy appearance rather than a blue-leaning sage look. Its mid-light depth keeps walls feeling colored without becoming heavy, while the restrained saturation prevents it from reading overly bright. In daylight, Japanese Maze 3 can show its fresh yellow-green side more clearly; under warmer artificial light, it may appear gentler and slightly more olive. It suits kitchens, garden-facing living rooms, and bedrooms where natural wood, off-white trim, linen, and woven textures can reinforce its organic character. Pair this shade with creamy whites, warm beige, pale oak, charcoal details, or terracotta accessories for contrast.
