It is not meant to disparage Farrow & Ball in any way. The color matching I did was done with the real samples from both Farrow & Ball and Benjamin Moore. What you see is Farrow and Ball’s rendition of their colors and some of them look horribly off to me. The colors on your monitor may be off from the real-life colors. I took this photo of a Farrow & Ball store a year ago during the trip to England when we were tooling around Cambridge.Īnd, coming up is the revised Farrow and Ball Paint Colors 2018 matched to Benjamin Moore. (in that order) I think that it might make a good house color.įor examples of the colors used in room settings, please check out the Farrow and Ball website. I love this rich, saturated, woodsy green.Īn interesting deepish grayish-blueish-greenish. That’s one of the Laurel Home Paint/Palette Collection Colors. The second I saw this color I knew that it matched perfectly to the beautiful Rolling Hills 1497. No American should ever try it ] except maybe for Miles Redd. Hmmm… This color is the paint color equivalent of Marmite. But, this is a lovely color just difficult to match-up, because as I said, it’s a dirty word. Which is a dirty word in America thanks to the hideous brass/mauve era in the 80s. Really, a pale gray with a bit of a green undertone To see the real colors, you’ll need a color card or the actual paint to test. Please note that the colors you see on your monitor may differ from what they are. (and, fixed a few boo boos I had made) FYI, this is the list of the archived Farrow and Ball Colors from now back to 2016. The old chart that I did that three years ago, is here, for reference, if you’d like to see it.įor the new chart, I removed the 18 archived colors and added the 18 new colors. Since it’s been three years and so many changes now, I decided to update the color chart which matches up the colors to Benjamin Moore. I got one when I went into the city for an event at the Farrow & Ball showroom in the D&D Building a while back. Although, I believe that there is an Archive Collection fan deck. You can still get the old colors, they just don’t promote them. And, they send the ones removed to their archive collection. If they add nine new colors, they take nine colors away. Interestingly, Farrow and Ball does not keep adding to their collection. Plus, there were nine new colors about two and a half years ago. In the meantime, many of you know that the Farrow and Ball colors 2018 just came out.Īnd I ordered my color card (or colour card) immediately! :] (where I added a pic of me about to take off in my “rocket” outside Christiansborg Palace) ] If you missed those posts, you can see them here and here. Taking a break from the Copenhagen trip photos because not everyone is interested, but I do have more to share that I think you’ll enjoy.
