I love both your aesthetic and your turn of phrase describing your home! I use a similar approach to our home. We live on the coast in the PNW in a home with lots of windows. Like you I have used a slightly warm white throughout the house on the walls. The warmth comes from Amish made black walnut furniture, rich umber, linen, and accents of dusky blue-green. I don’t normally use blues but this house with its location and light, it’s just lovely.
I have painted my 1920s house in a light magnolia. With a lack of natural light due to lack of windows ( particularly in winter), i wanted to highlight the12ft ceilings.
I intend to pay homage to the era with greens and other earthy tones in my furnishings. The baltic pine floorboards will eventually be sanded & sealed.
The original green paint darkened the rooms and I was sad painting over it, but needed a blank canvas for my turn in my grandparents' house.
I also love colour, one of my favourites is Castle Garden, a deep green. I have a dark burnt orange 3x2 lounge. The greens and orange look great together.

That sounds PERFECT 🥰
I love your house and reasoning! I'd love to see more! Is the couch available in the USA?? 🤞🏼
It’s an ikea sofa with a custom slip cover made by Norse Maison 💛
OK thanks so much for that!

Sounds very similar to ours 💚
We have William morris wallpaper in the front room. It’s a great start for drawing colour palette inspiration
