- Undertone harmony (Aligned): 4 of 5 carry a warm inflection — they speak the same language.
What each colour does
Wall — Roasted Macadamia (Farrow & Ball No.CB2, LRV 50, warm yellow undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.
Companion — Pink Damask (Benjamin Moore 890, LRV 85.46, 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 — Cragside JB.10 (Mylands JB.10, LRV 6.9, warm green undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.
Trim — Piano White (Dulux Heritage, LRV 84.7, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
Ceiling — Japanese Maze 6 (Dulux, LRV 81, neutral green undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
