- LRV spread (7.6 → 86.61): 79.01-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): 4 of 5 carry a warm inflection — they speak the same language.
What each colour does
Wall — Wheatberry (Benjamin Moore 2099-70, LRV 74.72, warm pink undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.
Companion — Seapearl (Benjamin Moore 961, LRV 77.5, 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 — Charcoal Drift (Dulux, LRV 7.6, neutral neutral undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.
Trim — White Vanilla (Benjamin Moore 2017-70, LRV 86.61, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
Ceiling — Pointing (Farrow & Ball No.2003, LRV 86.3, warm yellow undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
