What each colour does
Wall — Spring in Aspen (Benjamin Moore 954, LRV 70.95, warm yellow undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.
Companion — Pumpkin Seeds (Benjamin Moore 113, LRV 78.85, 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 — Veiled Violet (Dulux, LRV 6.3, cool violet undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.
Trim — Subtle Ivory 2 (Dulux, LRV 81.6, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
Ceiling — Pearl Colour - Pale (Little Greene LG 198, LRV 78.9, cool green undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
