What each colour does
Wall — Sandy White (Benjamin Moore 2148-50, LRV 72, warm yellow undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.
Companion — Nutmeg Cluster 6 (Dulux, LRV 81.3, warm brown 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 — New London Burgundy (Benjamin Moore HC-61, LRV 9.82, warm red undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.
Trim — 100% Maybe (COAT, LRV 80.1, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
Ceiling — Mauve Hint (Benjamin Moore 878, LRV 76.6, warm pink undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
