How they read
In their own wordsPale Powder No. 204 is Farrow & Ball's most popular shade of aqua, a lighter version of the archived Powder Blue. The brand says it has an unparalleled softness.
Despite the name, Catalina Blue lives in the soft territory where blue meets green. It is a muted, sea-glass color — grey enough to stay calm, green enough to feel coastal — that shifts between blue and sage depending on the light it's given.
