• Undertone harmony (Aligned): 4 of 5 carry a warm inflection — they speak the same language.

What each colour does

Wall — Fossil (Paint & Paper Library Arch. VII, LRV 40.1). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Accent — Peerage (Benjamin Moore CC-36, LRV 7.04, warm red undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Portland Stone - Pale (Little Greene LG 77, LRV 78.7, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
