What each colour does

Wall — Pastel Green (Benjamin Moore 548, LRV 71.1, warm green undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Golden Jasmine 2 (Dulux, LRV 79.6, 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 — Hardback (COAT, LRV 5.9, warm yellow undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — La Magnolia (COAT, LRV 83.5, warm pink undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — Indian White (Dulux Heritage, LRV 80.5, warm neutral undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
