What color is Dulux Khaki Mists 3?

Dulux Khaki Mists 3 30YY 47/145 is a muted mid-tone beige with a noticeable warm, earthy cast. Its blend of tan and soft grey gives it a slightly weathered appearance rather than the clean creaminess of a pale neutral. In daylight, this color can read as a gentle khaki-beige, while warmer artificial light may draw out its sandy, caramel-leaning notes. It suits living rooms, hallways, and bedrooms where a grounded wall color is wanted without making the room feel overly dark. Pair Khaki Mists 3 with chalky off-whites, warm stone, natural oak, linen upholstery, and brushed black or aged bronze details.
