The difference

Read from the numbers

Lamp Room Gray leans cool where Repose Gray reads warm. Lamp Room Gray is a gray, Repose Gray a beige.

How they read

In their own words

Lamp Room Gray is what Farrow & Ball calls its 'most traditional blue grey' — a mid-light grey with a soft blue cast that feels older and more settled than a modern cool grey. It takes its name from the rooms where oil lamps were once trimmed and stored.

Repose Gray (SW 7015) is the gray for people who want gray — not greige — but don't want it cold. A quiet warm undertone keeps it from going icy, while it still reads more gray than beige. LRV sits around 58.
