Archive Collection: Hound Lemon

No.2

A cool lemon yellow

Originally chosen by colourist John Fowler, Hound Lemon is a mysterious name for this delicate shade. With cooler undertones than many of our yellows, it feels especially fresh used in a garden-facing room, where it mimics the tones of nature outside.

Recommended Primer & Undercoat: Mid Tones

Complementary white: House White

Archive Collection: Hound Lemon is rated 4.8 out of 5 by 17.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Beautiful, smooth colour with great coverage I bought this to update my kitchen and it has really refreshed what was a tired space. The colour has real depth whilst the flat finish means that the imperfections in my very elderly walls are unnoticeable. I absolutely love F&B paint - the cupboards are Folly Green which is now archived but still available

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Wonderful pigments give great colour I have repainted a boring room in hound dog lemon and another in elephants breath &one skimming stone grey. Tbw tones are so wonderful and they moderate for bright light, dusk, and night light. The reason I live F&B is the pigments in the paint giving great depth and colour. It also goes on so well. Wonderful quality.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great in my hall! Another hall another success with hound lemon. This is the third time I’ve used this colour in a hall and it looks lovely. It’s easy to use and gives good coverage. Two coats are needed to get an even finish.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from stunning although originally looking for something a little more 'buttery' we chose this colour to brighten our dull Edwardian lounge. it has challenges given it has dual aspect of slightly east of N and slightly north of W so is pretty dark in the winter months but gets lovely afternoon sun in the summer. hound lemon works a treat as there are no green tones taking over and has brought the room to life in even the dreariest days. worked perfectly with slipper satin on a fourth wall.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from As always never disappointed The colours are always as I expected, this time I used hound lemon for two walls in the lounge, the yellow tones are fashionable again which I can see why, to me it's the depth of tone that I have to expect from farrow & ball.
