What each colour does
Wall — Hillside Green (Benjamin Moore 495, LRV 33.81, warm yellow undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.
Companion — Winter White (Sanderson CN_SAP0149, LRV 81.5, 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 — Roman Shade (Benjamin Moore 1228, LRV 29.95, warm orange undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.
Trim — Royal Silk (Benjamin Moore 939, LRV 77.89, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
Ceiling — Paper III (Paint & Paper Library PPL-38, LRV 75.3, warm yellow undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
