Why this works
- LRV spread (10.84 → 79.4): 68.56-point range across 5 colours — proper architectural contrast.
- Warmth balance (5 warm · 0 cool): Built around warm tones with no cool ballast.
- Undertone harmony (Aligned): 5 of 5 carry a warm inflection — they speak the same language.
What each colour does
Wall — Grey 04 (Lick, LRV 43.2, warm green undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.
Companion — Ochre White (Dulux Heritage, LRV 79.4, 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 — Sweet Rosy Brown (Benjamin Moore 1302, LRV 10.84, warm red undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.
Trim — Onyx White (Benjamin Moore 1135, LRV 76.72, warm orange undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
Ceiling — Spanish White (Benjamin Moore OC-35, LRV 76.28, warm yellow undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
