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.
Poe is a Roman Clay colour from Portola Paints, which describes it as a "deep plum". Portola says it was originally named Black Magic and was inspired by the writing of Edgar Allan Poe.
