What each colour does

Companion — Lime Froth (Benjamin Moore 2031-70, LRV 87.72, 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 — FTT-007 - Magenta (Mylands FTT-007, LRV 15, warm violet undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.
Trim — Soft Montelimar 6 (Dulux, LRV 79.4, warm pink undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
