Farrow and Ball are known for their beautifully nuanced palette, every shade with depth, character and a story. While the brand hasn't launched an official colour of the year, new shades introduced in 2025 and key classics are shaping the way designers and homeowners are painting their homes this year.
In 2026 interiors, we are seeing a shift away from cool greys and stark whites, towards warmer, earth driven tones that bring comfort, personality and connection to nature. These tones work beautifully in both traditional and contemporary settings. Read this blog to see the Farrow & Ball colours defining interiors in 2026!

Reduced Green - a muted, calming tone that blurs the line between green and brown
Dibber - soft, gentle green with neutral clarity
Douter - smoky, mossy green bridging classic and contemporary feel

These colours work beautifully as modern neutrals, grounding spaces without feeling cold or stark. They are ideal for living rooms, especially when paired with natural wood and soft lighting
Warm and Statement Hues -
Etruscan Red - earthy, deep red with historical gravitas.
