Farrow & Ball

Parma Gray

No. 27

Parma Gray by Farrow & Ball is a light, cool-leaning blue-grey with subtle grey undertones that keep it from reading as overtly blue. With an LRV of 73.6 it reflects a good deal of light, making it useful in north-facing rooms or spaces that need brightening without resorting to white. It can serve as a wall colour in bedrooms, living areas, or bathrooms.

Parma Gray coordinates well with Farrow & Ball shades including All White, Wimborne White, Stiffkey Blue, Lamp Room Gray, and Pavilion Blue.
