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

What each colour does

Wall — Peppermint (Benjamin Moore 1359, LRV 74.19, warm pink undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Capitol White (Benjamin Moore CW-10, LRV 86.93, 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 — Autumn Purple (Benjamin Moore 2073-20, LRV 7.39, warm red undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Mountain Peak White (Benjamin Moore OC-121, LRV 88.64, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — DH White (Dulux Heritage, LRV 81, warm yellow undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
