What color is Dulux Wild Mushroom 2?

Dulux Wild Mushroom 2 30YR 29/118 is a muted mid-tone taupe with a noticeable dusty rose-brown cast. Its softened, low-saturation appearance keeps it from reading too pink, while the warm earthy base prevents it from feeling grey or cold. In brighter daylight, this color can show more of its pale clay and blush undertones; under warm evening lighting, it becomes deeper and more cocooning. Use Wild Mushroom 2 on bedroom or living-room walls for gentle definition, or on cabinetry where a softer alternative to dark brown is wanted. Pair it with chalky off-whites, mushroom greys, aged brass, natural oak, linen, and terracotta-toned ceramics.
