Farrow & Ball

Clunch

No. 2009

Clunch is a warm off-white with yellow-beige undertones that give it a slightly earthy cast, distinguishing it from cooler or starker whites. With an LRV of 86.4, it reflects a large amount of light and works well as a full-room wall color or ceiling tone where a softer alternative to pure white is needed. The warm base becomes more apparent in rooms with limited daylight or under incandescent lighting.

It layers well with Farrow & Ball White Tie for a tonal white-on-white approach, or with Oxford Stone to introduce a bit more depth. For contrast, Dead Salmon or Ball Green can be used on accent surfaces to ground the palette without overwhelming the lightness.
