Farrow & Ball

Great White

No. 2006

Great White by Farrow & Ball is a soft off-white with a faint pink undertone that keeps it from reading too cool or stark. With an LRV of 87.8, it reflects a large amount of light and works well on walls and ceilings in rooms of any size, including hallways and north-facing living areas. The warmth is subtle enough that it functions as a near-neutral, sitting comfortably alongside colors like Slipper Satin, Ammonite, Cornforth White, Dove Tale, and Skimming Stone.

It holds steady under both natural and artificial light without shifting noticeably.
