Why this works
- LRV spread (7 → 67): 60-point range across 5 colours — proper architectural contrast.
- Warmth balance (1 warm · 2 cool): Cool-led scheme with warm punctuation.
- Undertone harmony (Aligned): 3 of 5 carry a cool inflection — they speak the same language.
What each colour does
Wall — Aerial Tint (Edward Bulmer, LRV 46, cool blue undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.
Companion — Mizzle (Farrow & Ball No.266, LRV 52, cool green 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 — Hague Blue (Farrow & Ball No.30, LRV 7, cool blue undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.
Trim — Skimming Stone (Farrow & Ball No.241, LRV 67, warm pink undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
Ceiling — Skimming Stone (Farrow & Ball No.241, LRV 67, warm pink undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
