What each colour does
Wall — Feather Down (Benjamin Moore 953, LRV 73.16, warm yellow undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.
Companion — Heather Bloom 6 (Dulux, LRV 72.5, 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 — Brownstone (Benjamin Moore CSP-240, LRV 8.03, warm red undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.
Trim — Welcome - Pale (Little Greene LG 158, LRV 85.3, warm pink undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
Ceiling — Cracked Clay 4 (Dulux, LRV 81.6, warm orange undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
