Why this works

• LRV spread (23.86 → 82.8): 58.94-point range across 5 colours — proper architectural contrast.
• Warmth balance (4 warm · 1 cool): Built around warm tones with cool anchors.
• Undertone harmony (Aligned): 4 of 5 carry a warm inflection — they speak the same language.

What each colour does

Wall — Marmalade (Benjamin Moore 2016-40, LRV 55.95, warm orange undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Organic Cloth (Crown, LRV 76, 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 — Street Chic (Benjamin Moore CSP-45, LRV 23.86, neutral green undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — White 06 (Lick, LRV 82.8, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — Birch White Light (Sanderson CN_SAP0012, LRV 80.9, warm yellow undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
