• Undertone harmony (Aligned): 4 of 5 carry a warm inflection — they speak the same language.

What each colour does

Wall — Old Soul (Benjamin Moore CSP-65, LRV 49.54, warm pink undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Linnet White (Dulux Heritage, LRV 81.3, 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 — Wild Blackberry (Dulux Heritage, LRV 6.6, neutral violet undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Hawthorne Green (Benjamin Moore 379, LRV 76.45, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — Charterhouse No.4 (Mylands No.4, LRV 85.1, warm yellow undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
