What each colour does

Wall — Chalky Downs 4 (Dulux, LRV 64.6, warm yellow undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — A la Mode (Benjamin Moore 2109-70, LRV 75.45, warm pink 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 — Southern Vine (Benjamin Moore 2138-10, LRV 7.87, warm green undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Mellow Pink (Benjamin Moore 2094-70, LRV 80.76, warm pink undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — Delicate Veil (Dulux, LRV 79.5, neutral grey undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
