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

What each colour does

Wall — Canopy Green (Sanderson CN_SAP0022, LRV 26.6, warm yellow undertone). The main hero of the scheme — fills your largest surface.

Companion — Sweet Sundae 6 (Dulux, LRV 80.9, 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 — Country Boots (Dulux, LRV 10.2, warm brown undertone). For smaller surfaces — doors, alcoves, picture rails, a feature joinery piece.

Trim — Twisted Bamboo 2 (Dulux, LRV 76.1, warm yellow undertone). Skirting, architraves, frames. Usually pale, lets the main colours breathe.

Ceiling — Comiston (Craig & Rose, LRV 80.3, warm pink undertone). Recommended ceiling colour for this scheme.
