What color is Dulux Quilted Calico 2?

Dulux Quilted Calico 2 30YY 75/145 is a light, creamy beige with a clear warm yellow cast and a soft biscuit-like depth. Its pale value keeps walls bright without reading as stark white, while the muted color intensity prevents it from looking overly buttery. In daylight, Quilted Calico 2 appears clean and gently warm; under warm evening lighting, its golden-beige character becomes more noticeable. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and painted woodwork where a warmer neutral is wanted. Pair it with chalky whites, sandy taupes, natural oak, woven linen, and terracotta or muted olive accents.
