Farrow & Ball – Skylight
A light, dreamy, nostalgic blue, Farrow & Ball’s Skylight provides the comfort of time-tested elegance. As the name suggests, this colour harks of “the soft natural light that often pours through ceiling skylights.” It does this without appearing too reflective, thus offering a subtle but solid foundation to a variety of decor experiments.
Skylight has a presence that is quiet, classic, and charismatic. It is pale enough not to impose upon existing themes and finishes, yet expressive enough to establish an elegant ambiance. It has a somewhat matte visual quality that gives it a certain rootedness. In traditionally styled spaces featuring quaint details, rich wooden furniture and timeless floral or botanical prints, Skylight blends in seamlessly. It can be paired with white or near-white colour tones to create sufficient depth and interest without rendering the space chaotic.
Though traditional at first glance, Skylight can mould its appearance to suit contemporary urban homes as well. This unique tint registers as a fresh, cool blue in compact, well-lit spaces, and as a blueish grey tone when used in large areas that receive indirect or filtered light. As a result, there are many opportunities to craft a layered, all-blue theme by teaming it with darker variants, or arrive at sophisticated compositions using Skylight, grey and charcoal. These explorations can be further enriched with the use of reflective metallic accents.
Decorative elements featuring Farrow & Ball’s Skylight hue offer effective ways to brighten up monotonous interiors. They can be showcased against white backdrops in airy, uncluttered spaces, or introduced as light-toned contrasts within grey and charcoal palettes. Quiet spaces like bedrooms, reading areas and relaxed living rooms are ideal settings for such pairings.
Our collection of reflective large format artworks include luminous explorations featuring Skylight alongside white, grey and silver. The subtle, matte appearance of Skylight, together with the shimmering presence of silver and the sculptural quality of the artworks, create rich, tactile offerings for sophisticated homes.
