- Undertone harmony (Aligned): 4 of 5 carry a warm inflection — they speak the same language.
What each colour does
Wall — Mushroom Grey (Sanderson CN_SAP0096, LRV 48.5, warm pink undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.
Companion — Cloud Cover (Benjamin Moore OC-25, LRV 80.28, 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 — Elysian Ground (Little Greene, LRV 4.5, warm green undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.
Trim — Canvas I (Paint & Paper Library, LRV 77.9, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
Ceiling — Edelweiss White (Dulux Heritage, LRV 80.5, neutral neutral undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
