• Undertone harmony (Aligned): 5 of 5 carry a warm inflection — they speak the same language.

What each colour does

Wall — celestial (Benjamin Moore PT-200, LRV 37.6, warm yellow undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Nomadic Glow 6 (Dulux, LRV 80.1, warm pink 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 — Grey brown (RAL RAL 8019, LRV 4.4, warm brown undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Chalky White 2 (Dulux, LRV 81.5, warm pink undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.
