- Undertone harmony (Aligned): 4 of 5 carry a warm inflection — they speak the same language.
What each colour does
Wall — Early Sunset (Benjamin Moore 2096-70, LRV 77.02, warm pink undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.
Companion — Pale Opal (Dulux, LRV 83.4, neutral 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 — Arras (Little Greene, LRV 8.2, warm brown undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.
Trim — Charterhouse No.4 (Mylands No.4, LRV 85.1, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
Ceiling — Old Fashioned Peach (Benjamin Moore OC-79, LRV 75.98, warm orange undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
