• Warmth balance (4 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 — Leather V (Paint & Paper Library, LRV 44.6, warm yellow undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Earthen Cream 4 (Dulux, LRV 81.3, 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 — Mink (Benjamin Moore 2112-10, LRV 7.33, warm red undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Ash White (Dulux Heritage, LRV 75.5, neutral grey undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — Orange Sorbet (Benjamin Moore 057, LRV 77.07, warm orange undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
