What color is Dulux Sunflower Symphony 2?

Dulux Sunflower Symphony 2 10YY 21/500 is a rich, earthy golden ochre with a noticeable orange-brown cast. Its low lightness gives it visual weight, while the strong yellow content keeps it energetic rather than muddy. In bright daylight, Sunflower Symphony 2 reads as a warm burnished gold; under softer evening lighting, its deeper amber-brown side becomes more apparent. Use it as a feature wall in a dining room, on a front door, or across cabinetry where its saturated depth can hold its own. Pair this color with chalky cream, warm off-white, deep olive, charcoal, and natural oak, leather, or aged brass finishes.
