What color is Dulux Lunar Landing?

Dulux Lunar Landing 99YY 55/056 is a muted, mid-light grey with a noticeable soft green cast and a gently yellowed undertone. Its low saturation keeps the color quiet rather than overtly green, giving walls a softened, mineral-like appearance. In bright daylight, Lunar Landing can read as a pale grey-green, while warmer artificial light is likely to bring forward its subdued olive warmth. It suits bedrooms, kitchens, hallways, and living spaces where a neutral needs more character than plain grey. Pair it with chalky white trim, natural oak, limestone, brushed brass, and warm off-white textiles. For contrast, use deep charcoal, inky blue-grey, or dark olive on cabinetry and smaller painted details.
