What color is Dulux Wild Mushroom 3?

Dulux Wild Mushroom 3 30YR 48/074 is a light, muted beige with a noticeable dusty rose and soft clay cast. Its low-saturation character keeps the color grounded rather than sweet, making it a useful alternative to plain greige on broad walls. In warm daylight it can read as a gentle pink-beige, while cooler or lower light brings forward its quieter taupe-grey side. Wild Mushroom 3 suits bedrooms, living rooms, and hallways where natural timber, linen, aged brass, and warm white trim are part of the scheme. Pair it with chalky off-whites, deep brown woods, or softened charcoal accents for contrast without making the room feel stark.
