What color is Dulux Palladian Plum?

Dulux Palladian Plum 30RR 19/068 is a muted, mid-depth plum with a noticeable veil of grey, giving it a softened rather than brightly purple appearance. Its red-violet cast can read gently rosy in warm afternoon light, while cooler daylight brings forward its dusky charcoal-plum side. Use it on a bedroom wall, a reading nook, or painted cabinetry where a darker color can add definition without looking heavy. Creamy off-whites, pale mushroom neutrals, and weathered oak keep the palette grounded, while brushed brass or aged bronze add warmth. For contrast, pair Palladian Plum with blue-grey textiles or deep green foliage rather than competing bright purples.

What are Dulux Palladian Plum undertones?

Palladian Plum is a midtone, very muted brownish taupe. The HEX sample has a subtle pink-red bias, but its low chroma turns that hue into a neutral-looking color rather than a clear pink-red. Warm bulbs can make it look creamier or more golden, while cool daylight may mute that warmth and pull it closer to beige or greige.
