What each colour does
Wall — Palace Green (Benjamin Moore CW-520, LRV 25.05, warm brown undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.
Companion — Wishbone White (Dulux Heritage, LRV 79.9, neutral neutral 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 — Leatherbound (Crown, LRV 7.2, warm violet undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.
Trim — Peach Melba (Benjamin Moore 078, LRV 77.17, warm orange undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
Ceiling — White Swan (Benjamin Moore 927, LRV 75.33, warm yellow undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
