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

What each colour does

Wall — Relaxing Siesta (Dulux, LRV 46.8, warm pink undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Natural Taupe 4 (Dulux, LRV 82, warm brown 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 — Bronze (Paint & Paper Library, LRV 9.8, warm yellow undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Mallow White (Dulux Heritage, LRV 80.9, neutral grey undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — Sumatran Melody 6 (Dulux, LRV 81.4, warm pink undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
