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

What each colour does

Wall — RAL 1002 Sand Yellow (RAL 1002, LRV 43.6, warm brown undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Cloudy Gray (Benjamin Moore 2107-70, LRV 77.37, 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 — Willow Twig (Dulux, LRV 13.1, neutral brown undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Cracked Clay 3 (Dulux, LRV 81.8, warm orange undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — Velvet Truffle 6 (Dulux, LRV 79.6, warm brown undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
