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

What each colour does

Wall — Knitting Basket (Benjamin Moore CSP-405, LRV 48.42, warm pink undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Charterhouse No.4 (Mylands No.4, LRV 85.1, 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 — Ganache (Little Greene, LRV 6.8, warm red undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Honey Harbor (Benjamin Moore 920, LRV 75.45, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — Modest (COAT, LRV 82.1, warm yellow undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
