Transitional · Living Room · Curation score 95/100

Anchored by Etiquette on the walls, with White Doe trim and a Otter Brown accent — a 50 / 30 / 20 split.

Made for

• Room: Living Room
• Period: Transitional
• Lighting: Mixed daylight
• Mood: Open and airy
• Temperature: Warm-leaning
• Average LRV: 67

Why this works

• LRV spread (7.68 → 87.6): 79.92-point range across 5 colours — proper architectural contrast.
• Warmth balance (4 warm · 0 cool): Built around warm tones with no cool ballast.
• Undertone harmony (Aligned): 4 of 5 carry a warm inflection — they speak the same language.

What each colour does

Wall — Etiquette (Benjamin Moore AF-50, LRV 74.03, warm yellow undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — White 03 (Lick, LRV 87.6, 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 — Otter Brown (Benjamin Moore 2137-10, LRV 7.68, warm green undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — White Doe (Craig & Rose, LRV 84.5, 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.
