Farrow & Ball

Skylight

No. 205

Skylight by Farrow & Ball is a cool, pale blue-green with gray undertones, hex #C9CFCD. It has an LRV of 80.6, so it reflects plenty of light while still reading as a distinct color rather than a tinted white. The gray base keeps it from appearing overly saturated, which makes it practical for bathrooms, hallways, and rooms with cooler daylight.

It pairs well with Wevet, Wimborne White, Dimpse, Railings, and Borrowed Light, ranging from near-white tonal matches to high-contrast dark accents.
