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

What each colour does

Wall — Japanese Maze 3 (Dulux, LRV 54.6, warm green undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Misty Air (Benjamin Moore OC-44, LRV 70.28, 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 — Cinnamon (Benjamin Moore 2174-20, LRV 12.93, warm red undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Butter BH.21 (Mylands BH.21, LRV 78.2, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — Tropical Sand (Benjamin Moore 2101-70, LRV 75.96, warm pink undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
