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

What each colour does

Wall — Toasted Meringue (Dulux, LRV 67.7, warm yellow undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Ballerina Pink (Benjamin Moore 2082-70, LRV 77.64, 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 — Incense Stick (Benjamin Moore 2115-20, LRV 8.19, warm red undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Adobe Pink 6 (Dulux, LRV 81.7, warm pink undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — Antique Cream (Crown, LRV 75.7, warm yellow undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
