How they read
In their own wordsTack Room Door is Farrow & Ball No. G6, a colour from the brand's Archive collection. Farrow & Ball describes it as "a weathered mid-brown, evoking years of exposure to the elements," giving "the impression of deep brown woodwork weathered to a more relaxed hue." The brand names Joa's White as its complementary white.
Faded Terracotta is exactly what the name promises: a clay orange that has been left in the light until the red drained out, leaving a soft, sandy peach. It comes from Farrow & Ball's California Collection, made with Kelly Wearstler, and it carries that West Coast ease — warm, dusty, never brash.
