THE EIGHT COLOURS IN THE CALIFORNIA COLLECTION ARE AVAILABLE IN FOUR FINISHES :
Tar Capturing the off-black shade of sunbaked desert highways , this deep yet restrained neutral is soft enough to envelop a whole room .
Sand A warm white of depth and complexity , this versatile neutral conjures images of Malibu , with its soft-sanded beaches and its coastal homes filled with natural wood and textured linens .
Citrona Inspired by the lemon trees that thrive in California ’ s temperate climate , this softened citrus shade is an earthy , contemporary take on true chartreuse .
Palm This fresh green is a love letter to the iconic palms that dot the Los Angeles skyline . It has a desaturated quality , as if always being seen in the clear , bright light characteristic of California .
Salt A bright , crisp white , reminiscent of the salty air ushered in by the Pacific Ocean and the delicate crystalline layer it leaves behind .
Hazy This muted blue-grey is inspired by the marine layer that brings drifts of dreamy fog inland , capturing the fresh feeling of early mornings on the coast .
Stoke A true , effortless grey to bring strength , structure , and clarity to any palette – just as it does to the landscape on city streets and cloudy coastal days .
Faded Terracotta The singular colour of terracotta pots and tiles baked to a pale hue by the California sun . An easygoing shade characterized by softness and warmth .
The California Collection , along with the entire range of Farrow & Ball paint , is available for purchase at farrow-ball . com , in Farrow & Ball showrooms and stockists , and through your designer .
