Tired of Neutrals? See What Happens When You Paint with Farrow & Ball's LIGHT BLUE!

[@its_fab75]

F&B will email you a document with the LRV of their colours. They sent it to me. Light Blue LRV is 46.61

Wine Dark is a reference to Homer and the sea. The ancient Greeks had no word for blue, so he talks about the "wine dark sea"

I use neutrals so I can change and use color in my decor all year. I find that neutral decor with neutral paint is boring to me.

Quite a revolutionary palate of colors here. 👍 Light Blue looks more like a seaside gray to me. Light Gray has more of that pale sage green in my eye. I’m with you, James, Blue Gray looks more greenish tone. Looks more like a cousin to Light Gray. Like a seaside cottage green. Wine Dark has the more…royal blue appeal to me. It’s one of those colors that goes along with 5-Star hotels and grand libraries. Dimpse 😁 is one color I would call White Gray or White Shores. Mainly because that’s a color one sees when seeing oceans or other bodies of water white-capping. Ooh! That would be the perfect name for Dimpse. Whitecapping. 🙂

Could use more videos on what to do with ceilings.

[@helenalovelock1030]

I like it when the ceiling is the same colour as the wall especially with the off white colours

Love this color, friendly and sophisticated at the same time! I have a request. Can you do a feature on Loyal Blue by Sherwin Williams? I'm considering it for our East-facing dining room and I am humbly requesting your expertise, o wise James and team! -Bri

This palette is so pretty and calming. 💙

[@JoshMorgan-uj7yf]

Nice guess! It has an LRV of 43. It's most like Ben Moore's 'Pearl'

Is there an all house green/eige paint you can recommend? Also any info about Clare paint colors?

[@annjohnson6193]

A touch of cool blue gray. I really like it.

[@bluebayou4242]

I love the blue!

[@ilikecontent2327]

All these colors have gray under tones... I do like the first color. A light blue/blue green. Not a medium blue. Or at least that is where I would put it because of the gray undertone which will need more natural light to keep it from looking too gloomy. Great for a bedroom or any room really. This color sampling has a Pacific NW coastal feel. Very cool undertones. That very overcast cloudy rainy day wear your sweater and stay inside with a cup of hot tea colors.

Thank you James! 😊

Do you think it would go next to Kittiwake? Thanks 🙌🏼

[@dudestoptrolling]

Would this color be a good option for the exterior main body color? Especially for a south facing house?

[@jhenniceamorrow5936]

Beautiful color

To me, the F & B color is way lighter looking than the "match" and is definitely blue. Not a super colorful blue. More like that exciting blue that gets in the sky that had just been steel gray and threatening and suddenly the weather changed dramatically, but with no intention of going sunny. This is the light blue that, growing up in Alaska, was the color of hope. One seldom freezes to death on a day with this color of sky.

“One seldom freezes to death…” You don’t often freeze to death, but sometimes. Which is nice🤣 -Signed, your humble Mainer.

Hello - how do you become a certified color consultant ? I see a lot of courses online but none that seem to be from professional organizations? Many thanks ( I am addicted to your channel 😊)

Bathroom, fine. Otherwise, it will be dark in a room. And too gray.
