- Undertone harmony (Aligned): 5 of 5 carry a warm inflection — they speak the same language.
What each colour does
Wall — Victorian Lace (Benjamin Moore 2100-70, LRV 74.93, warm pink undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.
Companion — Chalky White 2 (Dulux, LRV 81.5, warm pink undertone). Use on the wall in a hallway or adjacent room for a continuous scheme, or as a second wall colour in the same room.
Accent — Artichoke (Benjamin Moore 2141-10, LRV 9.01, warm yellow undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.
Trim — Lilac Spring 6 (Dulux, LRV 82.1, warm pink undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
Ceiling — Chatsworth Cream (Benjamin Moore 225, LRV 76.35, warm yellow undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
