What each colour does
Wall — New Crace (Edward Bulmer, LRV 38, warm green undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.
Companion — Sea Pink (Sanderson CN_SAP0124, LRV 76.8, 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 — Burnt Peanut Red (Benjamin Moore 2081-10, LRV 12.41, warm brown undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.
Trim — French Vanilla (Benjamin Moore 923, LRV 75.34, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
Ceiling — Vanilla Milkshake (Benjamin Moore 2141-70, LRV 80.97, warm green undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
