What color is Farrow and Ball Inchyra Blue?
Farrow and Ball Inchyra Blue 289 is a muted blue-grey with a noticeable green cast, giving it a softened, weathered appearance rather than a clear navy look. Its mid-to-dark depth makes it especially effective on kitchen cabinetry, built-ins, or a study wall where the color can hold its own against pale trim. In brighter daylight, Inchyra Blue reads cooler and slightly more blue-green, while lower light brings forward its charcoal-grey side. Pair it with warm off-whites, aged brass, oak, leather, or natural linen to keep the room from feeling overly cool. On an exterior door or shutters, this shade has enough depth to provide contrast without appearing stark.

LRV of Inchyra Blue
Inchyra Blue has an LRV of 12.5% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 12.5%, 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.
