Farrow & Ball

Minster Green

No. 224

Minster Green by Farrow & Ball is a dark, saturated green with cool undertones that give it a slightly bluish cast in certain lighting. Its LRV of 38.3 places it in the mid-to-low range, so it absorbs a fair amount of light and can make a room feel noticeably smaller if used on all walls. It is better suited to accent walls, exterior doors, cabinetry, or larger rooms with ample natural light.

It coordinates well with Farrow & Ball colors like Off-White, Shaded White, Cromarty, Railings, and Pale Powder.
