Why this works

• LRV spread (9.3 → 81.6): 72.3-point range across 5 colours — proper architectural contrast.
• Warmth balance (3 warm · 0 cool): Built around warm tones with no cool ballast.
• Undertone harmony (Aligned): 3 of 5 carry a warm inflection — they speak the same language.

What each colour does

Wall — Sepia Tan (Benjamin Moore CC-276, LRV 51.37, warm yellow undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Candle Cream (Dulux Heritage, LRV 77.7, warm pink 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 — Night Jewels 2 (Dulux, LRV 9.3, neutral neutral undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Geddy White (Benjamin Moore CW-20, LRV 74.99, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — Panel White (Dulux Heritage, LRV 81.6, neutral green undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
