What each colour does

Wall — Muted Amber (Dulux, LRV 50.2, warm orange undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Cloudy Gray (Benjamin Moore 2107-70, LRV 77.37, 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 — Rose Taupe No.292 (Mylands No.292, LRV 10.9, warm pink undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Whitewater Bay (Benjamin Moore OC-70, LRV 84.65, warm pink undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — Barely Beige (Sanderson CN_SAP0006, LRV 77.6, warm yellow undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
