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

What each colour does

Wall — Tropical Sand (Benjamin Moore 2101-70, LRV 75.96, warm pink undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Green Stone - Pale (Little Greene, LRV 83, warm green 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 — Tudor Brown (Benjamin Moore PM-24, LRV 6.43, warm red undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Spring Petal (Dulux, LRV 88.3, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — Natural Taupe 4 (Dulux, LRV 82, warm brown undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
