How to use this palette

• For walls: use the softer or lighter tones as the main wall colour, especially in smaller rooms or rooms with limited natural light.
• For accents: use the richer shades on furniture, cabinetry, cushions, artwork, rugs or feature walls.
• For balance: repeat at least one colour in more than one place so the room feels intentional.
