Why this works

• LRV spread (15 → 80.5): 65.5-point range across 5 colours — proper architectural contrast.
• Warmth balance (3 warm · 2 cool): Built around warm tones with cool anchors.
• Undertone harmony (Aligned): 5 of 5 carry a warm inflection — they speak the same language.

What each colour does

Wall — Honeybell (Benjamin Moore 145, LRV 54.73, warm orange undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Country Green (Benjamin Moore 540, LRV 71.58, warm yellow 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 — Tyrian (Edward Bulmer, LRV 15, warm violet undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Glacier White (Benjamin Moore OC-37, LRV 80.18, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — Indian White (Dulux Heritage, LRV 80.5, warm neutral undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
