# Farrow and Ball Dead Salmon

Source: [https://plan-home.com/color/farrow-and-ball-dead-salmon-28](https://plan-home.com/color/farrow-and-ball-dead-salmon-28)

Farrow and Ball Dead Salmon 28 is a muted, mid-tone neutral with a dusty pink cast softened by beige and brown. Its #b49d8d value reads as gently warm rather than overtly rosy, giving walls a settled, earthy appearance. In bright daylight, the pink-beige undertone is more noticeable, while lower or warmer light can pull it toward a deeper taupe-brown. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and dining spaces where a color with more presence than cream is wanted without a sharp contrast. Pair Dead Salmon with chalky off-whites, aged brass, natural oak, linen upholstery, and dark brown or charcoal accents for a grounded finish.
