How these schemes are made
Generated by PaintColorKE (pck-schemes/1) from this colour’s OKLCH lightness, chroma and hue: the same colour always gives the same six schemes, and it is kept, unchanged, in every one. Other colours are taken from the PaintColorKE colour library when one is very close. Room roles are design suggestions, not paint quantities, mixing proportions or a manufacturer recommendation.

Method and sources
Distance: deltaEOK: Euclidean distance in OKLab (Ottosson 2020, CSS Color 4 conversion). Shown ×100; under about 2 is hard to tell apart on most screens, above 10 is clearly different. PaintColorKE colours come from the PaintColorKE colour library (pck-anchors/1, 5,344 colours, made without manufacturer data). Manufacturer references are published catalogue shades with a usable screen value (catalogue revision 4); identical screen values are shown once, with the other identities listed under it.
Physical paint matching is not available: no listed shade has calibrated measurements, so a near screen value is never presented as the same paint, an equivalent or a substitute.
