Every room, each color

The difference

Read from the numbers

Both read warm. Templeton Pink is a pink, Margaux a red.

How they read

In their own words

Templeton Pink No. 303 is a Farrow & Ball colour the brand describes as a historic-feeling pink, developed for the dining room at Templeton House to offset its Wedgwood plaques.

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.
