What color is Farrow and Ball Cornforth White?
Farrow and Ball Cornforth White 228 is a pale, muted grey-beige with a soft, lightly warm cast. Its low saturation keeps it quiet on large wall areas, where it reads as a gentle off-white rather than a pronounced grey. In daylight, this shade can show its subtle mineral-grey side, while warmer artificial light brings out more of its beige undertone. It suits kitchens, hallways, and living rooms where a restrained neutral is needed, especially alongside pale oak, limestone, brushed nickel, and creamy white trim. Cornforth White also has enough depth for cabinetry or built-in shelving when a stark white finish would feel too sharp.

LRV of Cornforth White
Cornforth White has an LRV of 60.21% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 60.21%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
