Read from the numbersBoth read warm. Bride to Be is a pink, School House White a white.
How they read
In their own wordsBride to Be is a whisper of pink folded into a warm off-white. At LRV 71 it is light enough to use as a whole-room neutral, and in most light it reads as a soft, flattering beige — the blush only shows when you put it next to a true white. It is the color of the inside of a shell.
School House White No. 291 is, in Farrow & Ball's words, "pared back, timeless and familiar without the cool undertones of the more contemporary neutral groups". The brand says the soft off-white is reminiscent of the colour used in old school houses.
