Farrow & Ball – New White
An uplifting, creamy tint, Farrow & Ball’s New White gets its name on account of its appearance that feels “much fresher than more traditional whites.” An interesting alternative to often-used wall colours like lime white, it carries mild undertones of yellow and shifts fluidly from warmth to coolness, depending on the specific conditions within which it is placed.
New White has an almost luminous quality that works as an effective way to brighten up spaces. It is a popular wall treatment for country-themed kitchens, where it can partner other tints of white and light-toned woodwork to establish a wholesome, harmonious ambiance. New White can just as easily enrich simply styled bedrooms, studies and living rooms thanks to its ability to gel with any kind of decor.
Lighter and “whiter” tints will make New White appear milky in comparison, which helps impart a rich tactile quality to the setting. Without creating visual chaos, such a colour palette can host classic furniture and ornate accents. Coastal, Bohemian or Farmhouse themes can easily be crafted through such an approach. The pared-back settings that result from this near-monochrome treatment will skillfully showcase vibrant upholstery and ornate accents.
The yellow undertone of New White also makes this paint colour a great candidate for pairing with rich blues and greens. Such high contrast compositions have a delightful impact in cosy urban homes, with warm wooden furniture and natural weaves completing the picture. New White also provides excellent opportunities to implement a sunny yellow theme, serving as an anchor for intense yellow elements and bridging them to a base palette of neutral colours.
