Introducing nine new F&B colours

September 20th, 2018

Experts in paint and wallpaper Farrow & Ball is introducing nine rich new paint shades to its colour card this autumn.

The new colours which range from an exotic pink and a deep red, to a soft off white and down to earth blue will launch on 20th September 2018, and are the first from the Dorset based brand since 2016.

Carefully chosen to re-balance the Farrow & Ball colour card, the new additions will replace nine existing shades to preserve the curated palette of 132 paint colours that’s become so synonymous with the brand.

When commenting on this announcement head of creative Charlotte Cosby who co-created the new paint hues said: “New colours is an incredibly exciting time at Farrow & Ball, it’s not something we do often, making it feel all the more special.

“An extraordinary amount of time and thought goes into each colour, from working with our expert craftsmen to refine the exact shade to dreaming up the perfect name and telling the story behind the colours.

“The collection is intelligently designed to ensure the colours you choose sit effortlessly alone or as a scheme as well as responding extraordinarily to light. We can’t wait for them to bring homes across the world to life!”

True to the 100% water-based range, the new collection will be low odour, eco-friendly, safe and easy to use and available in a range of high performance finishes.

Nine new colours from Farrow & Ball

We're thrilled to share Farrow & Ball's nine new paint colours

School House White No. 291: The lightest in the group including Shadow White, Shaded White and Drop Cloth, this soft white is reminiscent of the colour used in school houses.

Treron No. 292: A grey green version of Farrow & Ball classic Pigeon, it takes its name from a green variety of the species.
The perfect accent for our Traditional Neutrals.

Jitney No. 293: This relaxed and sandy neutral takes its name from the bus that whisks New Yorkers out of the hot city to
the beaches of the Hamptons.

Paean Black No. 294: This Georgian inspired red based black is a nod to the colour of old leather hymnals which so often
included a song of praise or paean.

Sulking Room Pink No. 295: This muted rose is evocative of the colours used in boudoirs, a room originally named after the French ‘bouder’ - to sulk.

Rangwali No. 295: An exotic pink inspired by the powder which is used so enthusiastically at the Holi festival of colours in India.

Preference Red No. 297: Our deepest richest red, this Baroque colour is named in honour of our original trade name. The
preferred red of modern homes.

Bancha No. 298: This mid-century modern green is a darker version of the much loved archive colour Olive. Named after
Japanese tea leaves, it provides a feeling of security.

De Nimes No. 299: An elegant blue that is wonderfully down to earth, it is inspired by the cloth of everyday workwear
originally made in the French city of the same name.
