- Undertone harmony (Aligned): 3 of 5 carry a warm inflection — they speak the same language.
What each colour does
Wall — Spring in Aspen (Benjamin Moore 954, LRV 70.95, warm yellow undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.
Companion — Slaked Lime (Little Greene LG 42, LRV 87.5, cool green 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 — Umbra grey (RAL RAL 7022, LRV 7.2, warm green undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.
Trim — Chinese White (Craig & Rose, LRV 81.4, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
Ceiling — Dusted Moss 4 (Dulux, LRV 81.5, neutral green undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
