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

What each colour does

Wall — Rocky Road (Benjamin Moore CC-470, LRV 41.31, warm yellow undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Magic White (Dulux, LRV 85.1, neutral grey 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 — Cabbage Patch (Benjamin Moore 2141-20, LRV 10.61, warm yellow undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Ancient Oak (Benjamin Moore 940, LRV 72.61, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — Royal Silk (Benjamin Moore 939, LRV 77.89, warm yellow undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
