What color is Dulux Sun Dust 2?

Dulux Sun Dust 2 30YY 49/562 is a clear, mid-depth golden yellow with a noticeable orange-ochre cast. Its saturated warmth makes it especially effective on a feature wall, kitchen cabinetry, or a front door where a stronger hit of color is welcome. In bright daylight, Sun Dust 2 reads as lively and sunlit, while evening lighting brings out its richer, more amber-toned side. Pair it with warm off-whites, muted olive greens, terracotta, or dark walnut for a grounded scheme. Matte black hardware and natural linen can keep this color feeling crisp rather than overly sweet.
