What color is Farrow and Ball Pink Ground?
Farrow and Ball Pink Ground 202 is a pale, warm blush with a soft peach-beige cast rather than a sugary pink finish. Its light value keeps it airy on broad walls, while the muted saturation makes it feel grounded and easy to live with. In bright daylight, Pink Ground can read as a gentle shell pink; under warmer evening lighting, its creamy undertone becomes more noticeable. It suits bedrooms, nurseries, dressing rooms, and living spaces where a quiet wash of color is wanted. Pair it with chalky whites, warm wood, natural linen, aged brass, or deeper earthy browns for contrast.

What are Farrow and Ball Pink Ground undertones?
Pink Ground reads as a light, muted blush pink with a soft orange-leaning warmth rather than a cool, blue-based pink. In the supplied digital sample, its relative bias toward red and yellow gives the pink a gently peachy cast, while the low saturation keeps it dusty rather than bright. Farrow & Ball describes it as a “dusty blush pink” with a warm finish, which matches the visible warm direction of this sample. Warm artificial light may bring out more of its peachy warmth, while cool daylight can make it appear lighter and a little less warm.

LRV of Pink Ground
Pink Ground has an LRV of 72% 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 72%, 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.
