What each colour does

Wall — Sand Pebble (Benjamin Moore 2105-50, LRV 41.51, warm pink undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Capitol White (Benjamin Moore CW-10, LRV 86.93, warm yellow 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 — Pelt (Farrow & Ball No.254, LRV 7, warm red undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Seapearl (Benjamin Moore 961, LRV 77.5, warm green undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — Peach Nectar (Benjamin Moore 2168-60, LRV 77.97, warm orange undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
