Browse Forums Interior Decorating Lounge 1 May 13, 2012 9:44 pm Just wanting some help with a dulux colour for our cladding outside. I had originally chosen dune for the cladding but with help from an interior designer she recommendec dulux pale earth, which is extremely similar to dune. Our garage doors will be dune, I am worried that in the sunlight pale earth may lose some of its depth and wondering whether I should go darker, I'm not scared of a darker colour at all, but just wondering what is the next colour on the colour wheel. Our portico will be painted western myall (a dark grey) Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Re: Dulux colour for external cladding 4May 14, 2012 6:32 pm How about either of these 2 colours, both in the same family as Pale Earth but darker Dulux Saudi Sand Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Dulux Nile Clay Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ SORRY.... forgot to put the names up!
