- Undertone harmony (Aligned): 5 of 5 carry a warm inflection — they speak the same language.
What each colour does
Wall — French White (Benjamin Moore 1093, LRV 72.65, warm yellow undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.
Companion — Spring in Aspen (Benjamin Moore 954, LRV 70.95, 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 — Ultra Violet (Benjamin Moore 1372, LRV 12.78, warm red undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.
Trim — Cashmere II (Paint & Paper Library, LRV 90.9, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
Ceiling — Jasmine Blush (Dulux, LRV 78, warm pink undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
