Why this works

• LRV spread (13.68 → 83.7): 70.02-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): 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 — Cracked Clay 4 (Dulux, LRV 81.6, warm orange 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 — Shy Cherry (Benjamin Moore 2007-20, LRV 13.68, warm orange undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Me Time (COAT, LRV 83.7, warm green undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — Grecian Garland 6 (Dulux, LRV 80.9, warm green undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
