What color is Dulux Sun Dust 1?

Dulux Sun Dust 1 30YY 41/700 is a deep, saturated golden yellow with a clear ochre cast. Its strong pigment gives it real presence on a wall, particularly in dining rooms, kitchens, or creative spaces that can handle a bold field of color. In bright daylight it reads as vivid and sunny, while lower or warmer light draws out its richer, earthier side. Use Sun Dust 1 on a feature wall, painted cabinetry, or a front door rather than across every surface in a compact room. It pairs well with chalky whites, charcoal grey, dark wood, terracotta, and aged brass.
