Why this works

• LRV spread (6 → 84.1): 78.1-point range across 5 colours — proper architectural contrast.
• Warmth balance (4 warm · 0 cool): Built around warm tones with no cool ballast.
• Undertone harmony (Aligned): 5 of 5 carry a warm inflection — they speak the same language.

What each colour does

Wall — Ashen White (Dulux, LRV 71.6, warm grey undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Calm (Benjamin Moore OC-22, LRV 75.83, 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 — Cola (Farrow & Ball No.9918, LRV 6, warm red undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Swan Feather (Crown, LRV 84.1, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — Wispy Pink (Benjamin Moore 2005-70, LRV 78.39, warm pink undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
