What each colour does
Wall — Fieldstone (Benjamin Moore 1558, LRV 42.73, warm green undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.
Companion — Humble (COAT, LRV 73.3, 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 — Ebony King (Benjamin Moore 2132-20, LRV 5.69, cool blue undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.
Trim — Capuchin (Paint & Paper Library, LRV 82.8, cool green undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
Ceiling — Pampas (COAT, LRV 78.8, warm yellow undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
