• LRV spread (7.09 → 87.62): 80.53-point range across 5 colours — proper architectural contrast.

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

What each colour does

Wall — Afternoon Tea (Crown, LRV 65.6, warm yellow undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Alpine White (Benjamin Moore OC-124, LRV 87.62, 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 — Deep Caviar (Benjamin Moore 2130-20, LRV 7.09, warm violet undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Dove Wing (Benjamin Moore OC-18, LRV 77.52, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — White Chocolate (Benjamin Moore 2149-70, LRV 86.83, warm yellow undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
