Farrow & Ball

Yonder

No. 9810

Yonder is a mid-tone blue from Farrow & Ball with cool gray undertones that keep it from reading as overly bright or juvenile. Its hex value is #8EB3C2 and it has an LRV of 67.5, so it reflects a good amount of light while still registering clearly as blue on the wall. It is a practical option for bedrooms, bathrooms, and north-facing living areas where a cooler palette is appropriate.

Yonder coordinates well with other Farrow & Ball colors including Borrowed Light, Pale Powder, Pointing, Railings, and Hague Blue.
