About this colour

At #A7937A, Dalston Chat reads as a warm taupe-beige with a soft earthy depth. It absorbs more light than a pale neutral, so it can make a room feel settled and composed rather than brightened. In north-facing rooms it will look a little deeper and more muted, with the brown in it coming forward; in south-facing rooms the warmth opens up and the colour feels softer and more welcoming. It works well beside natural oak, walnut and dark stained woodwork, and it gives a calm background to linen, wool and leather upholstery in cream, rust, olive or charcoal.

How to use it

Use Dalston Chat in a sitting room, study or hallway where you want a steady neutral with more character than plain beige. It suits painted woodwork in the same family, or it can be paired with darker trim and upholstery in deep green, camel or tobacco tones.

On a wall, Dalston Chat is a warm neutral that feels settled and easy to live with.
