Farrow & Ball

Dead Salmon

No. 28

Dead Salmon is a muted warm brown with a soft pink undertone that shifts depending on lighting conditions, reading rosier in natural daylight and leaning more brown under artificial light. With an LRV of 62.5, it sits in the mid-range for reflectance, keeping rooms open without feeling washed out. It works well in living rooms and hallways where a grounded neutral with some warmth is needed.

Pairing it with Slipper Satin or School House White maintains a cohesive warm scheme, while Lichen or Blue Gray can draw out its pink base through cooler contrast.
