Why this works

• LRV spread (6.7 → 81): 74.3-point range across 5 colours — proper architectural contrast.
• Warmth balance (3 warm · 0 cool): Built around warm tones with no cool ballast.
• Undertone harmony (Aligned): 3 of 5 carry a warm inflection — they speak the same language.

What each colour does

Wall — Silver Lichen (Dulux, LRV 44.1, neutral green undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Treacle Tart 5 (Dulux, LRV 74, 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 — Clove Brown (Craig & Rose, LRV 6.7, cool violet undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Early Sunset (Benjamin Moore 2096-70, LRV 77.02, warm pink undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — Jungle Ginger 6 (Dulux, LRV 81, warm brown undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
