What color is Farrow and Ball Middleton Pink?

Farrow and Ball Middleton Pink 245 is a very light blush pink with a gently warm, peach-leaning cast. Its high brightness keeps the color airy on broad walls, while the soft pink tint remains visible rather than reading as plain off-white. In daylight, this shade can look clean and delicate; warmer artificial light is likely to bring out its creamier, rosier side. Use Middleton Pink in bedrooms, nurseries, dressing areas, or on cabinetry where a quiet wash of color is wanted. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, natural linen, and muted clay or soft brown accents for a cohesive finish.

What are Farrow and Ball Middleton Pink undertones?

Middleton Pink reads as a near-white, very muted pink with a light, low-saturation overall character. In the supplied digital sample, the subtle color bias leans slightly warm, with a faint red and yellow cast, though that bias is delicate rather than strongly defined. Farrow & Ball describes it as its “prettiest and most delicate pink,” which fits its visibly pale pink main family. Warm artificial light may bring its soft warm tint forward, while cool daylight can make it appear cleaner and closer to an off-white pink.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 84.97%, 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.
