What each colour does

Wall — Gallery Buff (Benjamin Moore CSP-225, LRV 46.22, warm yellow undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Hollyhock (Little Greene 25, LRV 86, 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 — Night Jewels 2 (Dulux, LRV 9.3, neutral neutral undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Paper (Paint & Paper Library 401, LRV 83.3). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
