What each colour does
Wall — Wool II (Paint & Paper Library PPL-175, LRV 64.1). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.
Companion — Mascarpone (Benjamin Moore AF-20, LRV 89, 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 — Saddle Brown (Dulux, LRV 7.4, warm orange undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.
Trim — Dusky White (Sanderson CN_SAP0043, LRV 79.1, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
Ceiling — Earthen Cream 4 (Dulux, LRV 81.3, warm yellow undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
