Farrow and Ball Rarely Introduces New Paint Shades, but 2025 Brings Twelve Fresh Tones as Key Hues
Farrow & Ball, the renowned British paint manufacturer, is set to release a captivating new collection of 12 paint colours on February 27, 2025. This rich and inviting palette, inspired by objects around the home, promises to elevate interiors with its warm, nostalgic hues.
The new collection features nine fresh colours and three from the archive, each thoughtfully paired to create striking combinations. Rich browns are coupled with light blues and off-whites, while lush greens are paired with terracotta reds, resulting in a harmonious blend of colours that echo the shades of the world around.
One of the standout colours in this collection is Dibber, a muddy green named after the tool used by gardeners. Another favourite is Marmelo, a warm orange reminiscent of warm, buttered toast and conversations around the breakfast table, which has been described as a colour that illuminates and indulges in the everyday.
Douter, a predicted standout, is a love child of Green Smoke and Inchyra Blue, offering a unique and versatile shade. Naperon and Scallop, two shades close in pigment, bring light and warmth to a room, with Scallop, a lighter variation of the beloved Dead Salmon, tying a room together with a soft pink bow.
The new collection encourages creative combinations and playful pairs, such as Muted Green and the light blue of Kakelugn, or Marmelo and the olive green shade Dibber, whose complimentary tones bounce off each other and feel alive in the room.
Designers have been captivated by several colours from the new collection, with De Nimes, Pointing, Verte De Terre Green (234), and Arsenic gaining significant attention. De Nimes, a moody, sophisticated shade, is favoured for creating comfort in spaces, while Pointing, an off-white neutral with a warm undertone, is celebrated for its versatility.
Verte De Terre Green (234), a renewed favourite, reflects a trend towards earthy, natural tones that bring depth and a sense of the outdoors into interiors. Arsenic, with its "minty fresh" feel, adds subtle energy to spaces without overwhelming them, making it a popular choice for creative use on floors and other areas.
Joa Studholme, Farrow & Ball's Color Curator, suggests pairing Douter with Mouse's Back on the floor and Reduced Green, from this new palette, on the trim.
