How to read this family

Colours are ordered by LRV, light to dark, because lightness is what most decides how a colour behaves in a room. This family runs from LRV 45.44 to 69.97, with a median near 58.31.

Within the family, 95 colours measure as warm, 0 as cool, and 0 as effectively neutral. That split matters more than the name: two colours in this list at the same LRV can look very different on a wall if their undertones pull opposite ways.

How to choose within this family

Start from the LRV the room needs, not the colour you like on screen. A north-facing room, which gets no direct sun all day, almost always wants a higher LRV than you first think. A south-facing room carries a lower LRV without closing in.

Then choose the undertone. If the room has wood, brass or warm textiles, a warm undertone sits with them; if it has steel, cool marble or cool whites, a cool undertone stays cleaner beside them.

Every swatch on this page is rendered from the manufacturer's published sRGB value, and LRV is computed with the WCAG relative luminance formula unless the manufacturer publishes its own. The full methodology is published.
