Made for

Why this works

• LRV spread (18 → 78): 60-point range across 5 colours — proper architectural contrast.
• Warmth balance (2 warm · 1 cool): Built around warm tones with cool anchors.
• Undertone harmony (Aligned): 4 of 5 carry a warm inflection — they speak the same language.

What each colour does

Wall — Tallow (Earthborn, LRV 71, warm cream undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Stone Mid (Little Greene No.36, LRV 62, warm earth 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 — Card Room Green (Farrow & Ball No.79, LRV 18, cool green undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Skimming Stone (Farrow & Ball No.241, LRV 78, warm pink undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — Skimming Stone (Farrow & Ball No.241, LRV 78, warm pink undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
