Paean Black
Farrow & Ball Paean Black (294) carries the measured structure of its color data and the less predictable beauty of paint in a finished space. Its neutral temperature leaves room for surrounding materials and light to pull the color warmer or cooler. Move between the room imagery, color measurements and coordinating shades to build a fuller sense of how it might live in your space.
