What each colour does
Wall — Meadow Pink (Benjamin Moore 1011, LRV 49.75, warm pink undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.
Companion — Down (Little Greene, LRV 80, 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 — Cocoa Blush 1 (Dulux, LRV 3.6, warm red undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.
Trim — Beachcrest Sand (Benjamin Moore 114, LRV 73.83, warm orange undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
Ceiling — Whitehall No.9 (Mylands No.9, LRV 80.2, warm yellow undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
