Farrow & Ball

Pale Powder

No. 204

Pale Powder is a cool, muted blue with a slight green undertone, hex #D5DAD1, and an LRV of 84.8. Its high light reflectance makes it useful for bathrooms, north-facing bedrooms, and narrow corridors where maximising brightness matters. The colour reads as a very pale aqua in strong daylight and shifts toward a soft grey-blue in dimmer conditions.

It works well with Farrow & Ball shades like Pointing and All White for a clean pairing, Shaded White or Joa's White to balance its coolness, and Light Blue or Green Blue for a deeper tonal scheme.
