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

What each colour does

Wall — York White (Dulux Heritage, LRV 70.7, warm orange undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Sweet Sundae 6 (Dulux, LRV 80.9, 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 — Bordéaux Red (Benjamin Moore 1365, LRV 9.32, warm violet undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Peach Pie (Benjamin Moore 127, LRV 81.02, warm orange undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — Sweet Sundae 6 (Dulux, LRV 80.9, warm pink undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
