What color is Farrow and Ball Lime White?
Farrow and Ball Lime White 1 is a pale, softly muted off-white with a noticeable creamy beige cast. Its #e8dec9 value gives it gentle warmth rather than a crisp, stark-white appearance, while the low saturation keeps the color quiet on large wall areas. In bright daylight, Lime White can read as a light ivory; under warmer artificial light, its beige undertone becomes more apparent. It suits bedrooms, living rooms, and hallways where a subdued pale backdrop is wanted without the sharpness of pure white. Pair it with natural oak, linen upholstery, warm stone, and deeper brown or charcoal details for a grounded contrast.

LRV of Lime White
Lime White has an LRV of 73.37% and refers to Off‑White colors that reflect a lot of 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 73.37%, 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.
