Dulux whites have stood the test of time and are a classic today. From the Dulux brochure: Most Loved Whites & Neutrals, we can get professional color options for our home decoration projects. Whether it’s a cool, contemporary vibe, a beachy oasis or a warm, traditional look, we can always find a perfect white color here.
In this article, let us tell you about the detailed differences among all these Dulux’s most popular white and neutral colors, so as to help your choice.
Simply to say, nothing wrong or nervous if you choose some colors recommended on this Dulux brochure. No matter if it’s a new look for your bedroom or a fresh look for all rooms after a major renovation of the kitchen and living areas, just go to pick up one hard copy of this brochure from the closest Dulux shops or Bunnings warehouses so as to work out the color schedules for your project.
We know, normally, there are two types of whites: Warm Whites and Cool Whites. Warm and cool whites have different undertones and each can set a different mood within your room.
Dulux’s Most Loved Warm Whites in Sydney
Dulux Natural White
This is the lightest of warm white. Dulux designers list it in the brochure as the No 1 of warm white colors. Definitely, it has been used by many home renovators and interior designers, and this versatile white will brighten any space and never fails to impress.
Dulux Antique White U.S.A
From the brochure, we can see Antique White U.S.A.® is a color creamer than Natural White and Whisper White. Its beautiful warmth allows artworks and colour details to sing. Its natural cream has made it become more and more popular than other cream colors.
Dulux Hog Bristle Quarter
This color looks like the most popular cream color 20 years ago. From the brochure we can see it is the deepest yellow/cream color. There’s something wonderfully warm and welcoming about Hog Bristle® Quarter. Many of those age house or units wall use this color. It’s an old favorite but still a great choice.
Dulux’s Most Loved Cool Whites in Sydney
Dulux Vivid White
Vivid White is an ultra-pure white and is perfect for creating a clean, crisp and contemporary look. However, in most situations, this color is used as the base color to create hundreds of Dulux neutral colors. If you don’t have a good idea for your wall or windows/doors, just choose this color. But remember, please don’t choose only Vivid White for both walls and woodworks, even this will definitely make your painter happy.
Dulux Lexicon Quarter
If you want a white color for your home, maybe this is the color you need. A cool fresh white, Lexicon® Quarter is the perfect choice for modern, open-plan spaces. It’s only a little bit darker than Vivid White, but creates a vibrant mood that allows you to showcase eclectic artworks and furnishings. But remember please, this is a very white color.
Lexicon, Lexicon Half, and Lexicon Quarter are the most popular colors of woodworks in our house/units, in my experience.
Dulux White on White
In the brochure, it’s the third cool white color. A clean, minimalist white that brings a sense of energy and vitality to your home. Give your space both a timeless essence and a contemporary feel. This color may be the most suitable color for your wall or woodwork, if you just want one light/cool color, but not very white, for your rooms.
Dulux Lexicon
Ideal for modern homes, Lexicon is a fool-proof, neutral cool-toned white. It’s the last white color listed in this brochure by a Dulux designer. It means it’s a white and cool color, and it’s a bit darker than other whites, with a sophisticated blue-grey tint. It mixes well with the textures and cooler coloured furnishings in the image above from Dulux.
