Why this works
- LRV spread (11 → 80): 69-point range across 5 colours — proper architectural contrast.
- Warmth balance (3 warm · 1 cool): Built around warm tones with cool anchors.
- Undertone harmony (Aligned): 3 of 5 carry a warm inflection — they speak the same language.
What each colour does
Wall — Cromarty (Farrow & Ball No.285, LRV 60, cool green undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.
Companion — Skimming Stone (Farrow & Ball No.241, LRV 78, 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 — Hague Blue (Farrow & Ball No.30, LRV 11, cool blue undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.
Trim — Empire Ivory (Craig & Rose, LRV 80, warm cream undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
Ceiling — Empire Ivory (Craig & Rose, LRV 80, warm cream undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
