Why this works

• LRV spread (10.83 → 80.8): 69.97-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): 4 of 5 carry a warm inflection — they speak the same language.

What each colour does

Wall — Greige 03 (Lick, LRV 18.2, warm green undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Feather Pillow (Dulux, LRV 80.8, neutral grey 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 — Eggplant (Benjamin Moore 1379, LRV 10.83, warm red undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — A la Mode (Benjamin Moore 2109-70, LRV 75.45, warm pink undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — Light Beauvais (Little Greene, LRV 76.4, warm yellow undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
