What color is Dulux Kiwi Burst 5?

Dulux Kiwi Burst 5 10GY 79/231 is a light, softened yellow-green with a chalky, low-intensity appearance. Its pale green cast is warmed by a noticeable yellow undertone, keeping it from reading icy or minty. In bright daylight, Kiwi Burst 5 can look clean and leafy, while warmer artificial light brings forward its gentle buttery note. It suits kitchens, breakfast rooms, children’s spaces, or garden-facing walls where its fresh tint can echo foliage without becoming overly vivid. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, woven natural fibres, and muted clay or soft grey accents for a grounded finish.
