Minted Glory 2

Dulux

The Analysis

Minted Glory 2 is a deep, saturated teal with an LRV of 9.87, meaning it absorbs most light rather than reflecting it. Because it is quite dark, it will make a room feel cozy and intimate by blurring the corners, rather than making the space feel larger or airier.

This is a statement color best suited for accent walls, cabinetry, or smaller rooms like a study or powder room. If used as a primary wall color in a large space, it creates a dramatic, moody atmosphere that requires good lighting to avoid feeling cave-like.

History & Origin

This color echoes the rich, pigmented tones favored in Victorian-era studies and libraries. While it has a traditional base, its high saturation also fits well within modern, high-contrast interior design.

How to Use It

Pair this with warm wood tones like walnut or teak to soften the deep green undertones. For hardware, unlacquered brass provides a sharp, sophisticated contrast, while matte black hardware keeps the look strictly modern and industrial.

The Mood

Living with this shade feels grounded and stable. It offers a restful, quiet energy that is perfect for winding down, as it lacks the high-contrast 'noise' of lighter colors.

Colour harmonies

Complementary

Opposite on the colour wheel — bold, high-contrast pairings. Use for a feature wall or furniture you want to command attention.

Analogous

Neighbouring hues — cohesive and calm, great for layered schemes that feel collected rather than matched.

Split complementary

Near-opposites for strong contrast with a little less tension than a pure complement. A favourite of interior designers.

Triadic

Three evenly spaced hues — balanced, vibrant, and versatile. Keep one dominant and use the others sparingly.

Tetradic (square)

Four hues in a square on the wheel — rich, dynamic palettes. Best when one colour leads and the others accent.

Monochromatic

Dark, mid, and light steps on the same hue — a failsafe gradient for trim, walls, and accents without shifting colour family.
