Nutmeg Cluster 2 vs Nutmeg Cluster 3
Nutmeg Cluster 2 and Nutmeg Cluster 3 come from the same Dulux collection. These are both beige-pinks, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-pink to land. The 18-point LRV gap — 49 for Nutmeg Cluster 3 vs 31 for Nutmeg Cluster 2 — means Nutmeg Cluster 3 will open up a space more effectively. Both share a warm character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 14.6 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.
