🎨 Understanding Dulux Mount Buller
Undertone: Grey with a green base
Finish: Light and soft
Best for: Open space living, interiors, exteriors, and transitional zones
Mount Buller is a soft, light neutral with a grey-green undertone. In open spaces with plenty of natural light, it looks warm and welcoming. But in darker rooms with limited sunlight, its cool green undertone will show up more strongly—so it’s important to pair it with the right complementary colours.
🧱 Best Neutrals to Pair with Mount Buller
✅ Shadow Catcher (Dulux)
A deeper grey with a green undertone. It works perfectly if you want to use Mount Buller in your main space and then add Shadow Catcher in an adjoining room for depth and cohesion.
💡 Styling idea: Use Shadow Catcher on a feature wall, in a hallway, or even in the master bedroom for contrast.
✅ Beige with Green Undertones
Pairing Mount Buller with a green-based beige adds warmth and softness. One is cool, the other warm—but because they share a green undertone, they create a harmonious contrast that still feels neutral and grounded.
✅ Taupe with Violet Undertones
This combo is for those who like soft elegance. It offers a touch of subtle contrast without introducing clashing tones. Taupe can be used for cabinetry, soft furnishings, or adjoining rooms.
