Lived In & Lovely
The Color Palette Library
Not just colors. Where they go.
Kit buyers kept asking the same thing: what if my quiz palette is close, but not quite me? Four palettes can't fit every home, so I built 36 more.
Every one follows the 60/30/10 rule and is already assigned. You'll know which color goes on the walls, which goes on the curtains, and which goes on the pillows before you buy anything.
Why this isn't a free palette generator
Free tools give you three pretty colors and leave the hard part to you. A palette is only usable when you know where each color goes, and what it has to work with in a room you can't fully change.
60% walls, largest furniture, rug · 30% curtains, accent chair, large art · 10% pillows, candles, small objects
Six families, six palettes each
Three of the families, one palette each:
|
Bold + Saturated Sand & Mustard |
|
|
Earthy + Natural Moss & Bark |
|
|
Moody + Deep Ink & Brass |
And three more, waiting inside:
|
Warm Neutrals The safest family and the hardest to get wrong. Works in almost any light and forgives imperfect furniture. |
|
Cool + Calm Quiet and airy, made for rooms with good natural light. Each one has a warm note so it never reads cold. |
|
Monochromatic One color at three depths. The most polished-looking family, for rooms with plenty of texture. |
What every palette comes with
Moss & Bark · Earthy 1
Named colors with hex codes for each slot, plus a "works with" note:
Works with: red brick fireplaces and brown leather. Brick stops looking dated the moment you put moss green near it.
Also inside
|
The anchor guide Find what you already have, and it points you to the palettes built to work with it. Warm oak floors: 14 palettes. Gray or cool-toned floors: 10. Dark north-facing room: 7. Brown leather sofa: 6. Brick or stone fireplace: 6. Renting with white walls: all 36. |
|
The real-room check A short guide to which families look great on a screen but need help in a real room, and exactly what light and textures they need before you commit. |
|
Adjusting a palette you almost love Too cold, too warm, too loud or too flat? One change for each, without turning it into a different palette. |

Your worksheet and My Palette page Write down what's anchored in your room, then your final three colors and where each one lives. Take a photo and shop from it. |
A few questions before you start
Do I need the Room Refresh Starter Kit?
No. The library works on its own, and the anchor guide gives you a starting point. If you've taken the free Style Quiz, this is where to go when your result was close but not quite.
Is this a PDF, or something interactive?
Both, just like the kit. An interactive version you can fill in on your phone or laptop, plus a printable PDF to keep on hand when you shop.
I can't change my floors or sofa. Will this still work?
That's exactly what the anchor guide is for. Start with what you're keeping, and it points you to the palettes built to go with it.
Are these paint colors?
Each color has a name and a hex code, not a specific paint brand. Most paint stores can color-match from a hex code or a printed swatch, and the colors work just as well for choosing fabric, rugs and decor.
What if a palette is close but not quite right?
These are starting points, not rules. The adjustment guide shows you how to change one slot so it feels like yours, while keeping the balance that makes it work.
Want the whole system?
Color is one of three things that make a room feel finished. The other two are texture and placement. The Room Refresh Starter Kit covers all three, and this library was built to sit inside it.
