Why this works

• LRV spread (13 → 78.7): 65.7-point range across 5 colours — proper architectural contrast.
• Warmth balance (4 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 — Silk grey (RAL RAL 7044, LRV 50.4, neutral green undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Muskoka Trail (Benjamin Moore 974, LRV 72.52, 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 — Sunflower Symphony 1 (Dulux, LRV 13, warm orange undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Delicate Peach (Benjamin Moore 120, LRV 74.88, warm orange undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — Soft Moss 6 (Dulux, LRV 78.7, warm yellow undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
