What each colour does

Wall — Portland (Edward Bulmer, LRV 68.5, warm yellow undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Summer Pecan 6 (Dulux, LRV 81.6, 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 — Nigerian Sands 1 (Dulux, LRV 6.1, warm red undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Spring Breeze 6 (Dulux, LRV 79.6, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — Whitening (Little Greene, LRV 88.4, warm yellow undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
