Quartz Flint 2

Dulux

The Analysis

Quartz Flint 2 is a mid-toned grey with a slight cool undertone that keeps a room feeling crisp and open. With an LRV of 62.67, it reflects a solid amount of light, which helps smaller rooms feel more spacious rather than cramped.

This is a quintessential 'workhorse' neutral that acts as a perfect main wall colour for entire open-plan areas. It is subtle enough to let your furniture and artwork stand out while still providing enough depth to define the walls.

History & Origin

This shade leans heavily into modern design trends, fitting perfectly with contemporary architecture. It lacks the heavy pigments found in historical palettes, making it a reliable choice for modern renovations.

How to Use It

It performs best in rooms with plenty of natural light, where its grey undertones stay true. Pair it with light oak or walnut wood tones to add warmth, and use matte black hardware to create a clean, modern contrast.

The Mood

Living with this colour feels balanced and highly practical; it provides a clean, neutral backdrop that doesn't distract the eye. It is an ideal choice for those who want a restful, orderly environment without the sterile feeling of pure white.

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.
