- Undertone harmony (Aligned): 5 of 5 carry a warm inflection — they speak the same language.
What each colour does
Wall — Kid Gloves (Benjamin Moore CSP-175, LRV 40.94, warm green undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.
Companion — Gentle Gold 2 (Dulux, LRV 67.9, 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 — Bewitched (Benjamin Moore CSP-450, LRV 6.37, warm brown undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.
Trim — Tropical Sand (Benjamin Moore 2101-70, LRV 75.96, warm pink undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
Ceiling — Green Essence (Benjamin Moore 853, LRV 79.96, warm green undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
