Farrow & Ball

Ballroom Blue

No. 24

Ballroom Blue is a blue-green with a cool undertone and a gray component that keeps it from reading as a чистый teal. With an LRV of 63.8, it sits mid-light and can handle broad wall coverage without becoming too dark. It is often used in bathrooms, bedrooms, and kitchens where a cooler wall color offsets warm metals and woods.

For clean neutrals, it works with Pointing and Wimborne White, and it can be layered with Light Blue for a lighter blue step. For deeper contrast, Down Pipe or Hague Blue gives a darker blue anchor.
