Farrow & Ball

Templeton Pink

No. 303

Templeton Pink is a muted, warm pink from Farrow & Ball with brown undertones that pull it toward a dusty terracotta rather than a true pink. Its hex value (#CDB19D) confirms a desaturated, earthy tone. With an LRV of 71.2, it reflects a fair amount of light and can work in bedrooms, living rooms, or hallways without making the space feel dim.

It pairs well with Farrow & Ball's Dimity and Joa's White for a tonal scheme, and deeper colors like Studio Green, Hague Blue, or Pigeon can be used for contrast on trim or accent walls.
