What each colour does
Wall — Green 19 (Lick, LRV 19.3, warm yellow undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.
Companion — Ivory Lustre (Benjamin Moore 184, LRV 76.71, 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 — Passion Flower (Dulux, LRV 14, warm pink undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.
Trim — Dusky White (Sanderson CN_SAP0043, LRV 79.1, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
Ceiling — Calming Aloe (Benjamin Moore 533, LRV 78.88, warm green undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
