Moroccan Flame vs Tranquil Dawn

Moroccan FlameDuluxvsTranquil DawnDuluxΔE 78.7Very different colors

Moroccan Flame and Tranquil Dawn come from the same Dulux collection. Hue-wise, Moroccan Flame belongs to the beige family and Tranquil Dawn to the green-grey family. The 27-point LRV gap — 55 for Tranquil Dawn vs 28 for Moroccan Flame — means Tranquil Dawn will open up a space more effectively. Where Moroccan Flame leans warm, Tranquil Dawn reads neutral — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 78.7 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below you'll find 3 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Kitchen

Kitchens often have the harshest, most revealing light in the house — under-cabinet LEDs and overhead fixtures that strip away subtlety. Tranquil Dawn returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

Digital color is approximate.
