What each colour does
Wall — Pirates Cove Beach (Benjamin Moore 903, LRV 74.42, warm orange undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.
Companion — Canvas White (Crown, LRV 86.1, 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 — Pamplona Purple 1 (Dulux, LRV 6.3, warm red undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.
Trim — White Dove (Benjamin Moore PM-19, LRV 85.38, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
Ceiling — Holbein Chamber No.7 (Mylands No.7, LRV 84.3, warm yellow undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
