Farrow & Ball

Lulworth Blue

No. 89

Lulworth Blue is a soft, mid-tone blue with cool undertones and a slight grayish cast that keeps it from appearing overly saturated. At an LRV of 69.9, it reflects a good amount of light, so it can work as a full-room wall color without making a space feel closed in. It is commonly used in bedrooms, bathrooms, and living areas where a quiet blue is preferred over a bold one.

Wevet and Wimborne White pair well for trim and ceilings, Parma Gray can extend a tonal blue scheme, and Elephants Breath or String offer a warm counterbalance.
