What each colour does
Wall — Chester Square No.199 (Mylands No.199, LRV 44.3, warm yellow undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.
Companion — Craftsman's White (Craig & Rose, LRV 84.9, 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 — Deer Trail (Benjamin Moore 1036, LRV 17.17, warm yellow undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.
Trim — Mallow White (Dulux Heritage, LRV 80.9, neutral grey undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
Ceiling — Golden Rambler 5 (Dulux, LRV 79.3, warm yellow undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
