Lake Red

No.W92

Lake Red is from our new Colour by Nature palette, created in collaboration with the Natural History Museum to bring the true colours of nature into your home.

An adventurous cool red

This adventurous colour appears red to some and pink to others, but always feels happy and vital. Fantastic in small spaces, Lake Red feels dynamic and energising used across walls, woodwork and ceilings, and works wonderfully inside cupboards.

Recommended Primer & Undercoat: Red & Warm Tones

Complementary white: Skimmed Milk White

Lake Red is rated 4.2 out of 5 by 35.

ECO-FRIENDLY AND CHILD-SAFE

Back in 2010, we moved our entire range to an eco-friendly water base that’s low odour, low VOC and child-safe, becoming the first in the industry to do so. Easy to clean without harmful solvents, in tins that can be recycled again and again, our paints help to reduce the environmental impact of redecorating your home.


QUALITY FINISHES

Every one of our paint colours is available in a range of durable interior and exterior paint finishes, each rigorously tested to ensure an exceptional depth of colour and long-lasting finish. For the very best results, we always recommend using a Farrow & Ball Primer & Undercoat – see above for the correct tone for this colour.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Lake Red Diningroom I am very happy with the colour. It is a lovely shade of red and warms up my north facing diningroom. I had painted the diningroom red before and loved it. The only reason I was painting the room was to freshen it up and I had tried lots of testers to no avail until I found Lake Red. I actually like it even more than the last red paint I had used. It changes colour slightly throughout the day and depending on the light. I read the reviews describing it as barbie pink but although it has a pinker hue in some lights it is still lovely and not what I would describe as barbie pink which is cheap. This is a more muted shade and even my husband likes it. He is definitely not a pink fan! I had to paint the room white before applying two coats of paint to get good coverage.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Lovely colour After buying 4 tester pots in various shades of red Lake Red was perfect for our dark living room. The colour is vibrant but cosy in the evening. The colour changes throughout the day from a pinky red to a darker tone in the evenings. I've never used Farrow and Ball paint before. I used one coat of primer and undercoat the then two top coats of the red. The paint is of very high quality and the finish is outstanding. I would highly recommend F&B.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good service I bought this colour along with several others as we are going to change the colour of our red dining room. Having clear sight of this colour convinced me that a different colour all together will be right

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fab quality paint & perfect colour All deliveries were unexpectedly fast. We tried 17 (!) samples for our north-facing rather dark living room. We really wanted a red tone on the walls and ended up choosing Lake Red. In a brightly lit room this colour would have a hint of pink but in our situation the colour is an absolutely fabulous stone red without it turning out too dark. The quality of the paint is outstanding, it covered really nicely. We used 3 coats without a primer on a light coloured wall but could have just about gotten away with just 2 coats. Will definitely purchase F&B paints for future projects.
