Dulux Soft Maplewood 3 10YY 53/132 is a muted mid-tone beige with a clear warm, yellow-brown cast. Its #CCB9A4 value gives it a softly weathered look rather than the crisp brightness of a pale cream, with enough depth to hold its own on large wall areas. In north-facing rooms, this color may read slightly more taupe or subdued, while warm afternoon light draws out its gentle sandy warmth. Soft Maplewood 3 suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a grounded neutral is needed without drifting too dark. Pair it with chalky white trim, oatmeal linen, light oak, aged brass, and deeper mushroom or clay-toned accents.
