A tranquil lilac

Calluna No. 270 by Farrow & Ball is a tranquil lilac named after the heather that blankets the Scottish moors. A touch of black pigment keeps it reading more lilac than pink, giving it a soft, calming feel that’s also surprisingly sophisticated.
Use Calluna to create serene bedrooms, nurseries, dressing rooms, and relaxing living spaces. Contrast it with Great White for a gentle, sympathetic scheme, or add drama by pairing with deeper tones like Brassica and Pelt for a richer, more layered look.
Recommended Primer & Undercoat: White and Light Tones.
Complementary white: Great White.
