Farrow & Ball

Bamboozle

No. 304

Bamboozle is a warm red with brown undertones that reduce pink shift in daylight and keep it closer to brick in warm lighting. With an LRV of 39.2, it reads mid-dark and can look heavier in low-light rooms. It is commonly used on a feature wall, dining rooms, or cabinetry where depth is needed.

For warm support colors, Pointing and Shadow White help control contrast on trim and adjacent walls. For related depth, Tanner’s Brown and Brinjal stay in the same warm-red direction, while Oval Room Blue can be used as a cooler counterbalance.
