• Undertone harmony (Aligned): 5 of 5 carry a warm inflection — they speak the same language.

What each colour does

Wall — Cypress Green (Benjamin Moore 509, LRV 35.09, warm yellow undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Grecian White (Dulux Heritage, LRV 81.7, 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 — Nicolson Red (Benjamin Moore CW-270, LRV 8.86, warm red undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Cappuccino Froth (Benjamin Moore CSP-1055, LRV 77.16, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — Pink 01 (Lick, LRV 77.3, warm pink undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
