Neutral Colour Schemes

Colour can create a wide variety of moods and styles to suit every type of home. Farrow & Ball is renowned for its range of neutral colours which are easy on the eye, creating a look of understated elegance. The following groups work well as colour schemes in their own right.

WARM GREY TONES

Warm grey tones such as Slipper Satin® No.2004, Lime White No.1, Off-White No.3 and Old White No.4 have a very sophisticated feel. They are traditional colours, but work well in contemporary situations too.

WARM REDS

If warmer tones appeal then Pointing® No.2003, Dimity® No.2008, Joa’s White® No.226 and Archive® No.227 should be considered. This group has a very warm feel and creates an extremely relaxing atmosphere.
