- Undertone harmony (Aligned): 4 of 5 carry a warm inflection — they speak the same language.
What each colour does
Wall — Lunar Landing (Dulux, LRV 52.7, neutral green undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.
Companion — Deep in Thought (Benjamin Moore AF-30, LRV 80.45, warm green 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 — Dark Nut Brown (Benjamin Moore 2098-30, LRV 12.32, warm red undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.
Trim — Julie's Dream (Little Greene 2, LRV 81.1, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
Ceiling — Coral Lustre (Dulux, LRV 81.2, warm pink undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
