- Undertone harmony (Aligned): 5 of 5 carry a warm inflection — they speak the same language.
What each colour does
Wall — Faded Bloom (Dulux, LRV 48, warm pink undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.
Companion — Cracked Clay 4 (Dulux, LRV 81.6, warm orange 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 — Iron Mountain (Benjamin Moore 2134-30, LRV 10.96, warm brown undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.
Trim — Savory Cream (Benjamin Moore 2105-70, LRV 76.13, warm pink undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
Ceiling — Ancient Oak (Benjamin Moore 940, LRV 73.1, warm yellow undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
