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.
Margaux is Color Atelier's bold, deep red — a burgundy with the depth of the Bordeaux it is named for. In lime paint the colour is never uniform: it pools darker in the corners and lifts to a dusty rose where the light hits.
