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

What each colour does

Wall — Muted Sage (Dulux, LRV 35.9, warm grey undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Cameo Silk 4 (Dulux, LRV 80.1, 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 — Saddle Brown (Dulux, LRV 7.4, warm orange 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 — Amazon Jungle 6 (Dulux, LRV 81.1, neutral green undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
