Coastal Interior Moodboard:
Hazy sunsets watched while we sink our toes into golden sand next to a sea vista… we’re loving UK staycations this year. Whether Whitby or Whitley, or a trip to the sunny south, the UK seaside has plenty to offer.
At the heart of colour creation and innovation for the industry of interiors and decor, you’ll find Farrow & Ball. Creating exceptionally high quality paints in a collection of carefully crafted colours.
Their latest announcement of nine new colours has captivated décor enthusiasts including ourselves. We explore these beautiful new tones further...
A red based black, Paean black is Georgian inspired colour conjuring up images of old leather hymnals. A deep and dark tone, we believe this will be beautifully paired on internal metalwork. The romantic, muted rose of sulking room pink is designed for that light, feminine bedroom tone, aptly named after the French ‘bouder’ – to sulk. We believe this would pair beautifully in a room with Hammonds White Ash finished fitted furniture.
Rangwali is a bright and exotic pink that creates beautiful and dramatic shades by absorbing the depth of colour with a variance of light. A rich deep red with an edge of purple, this baroque colour, Preference Red, is named in honour of the original name of the F&B Company, Preference Paints.
A mid-century modern green named after Japanese tea leaves, Bancha is a strong colour perfect for kitchens. A down to earth blue hue, De Nimes, named from the everyday workwear made in the French city Nimes.
Leading onto the more neutrals of the group, School House White is a soft, light shade named after the shaded white from school walls. Treron is a grey green version of Farrow & Ball classic Pigeon. With a traditional, modern feel we feel this pairs beautifully with shaker style kitchen cabinetry. A relaxed, earthy tone, Jitney reminds us of sandy beaches and Oxford Stone and is beautiful when paired with warm woods and brown based tones.
Each tone brings something unique accompanying the furniture, while the bolder tones of Paean Black and Preference Red will create depth and shadows in eye-catching tones, Old School House White and Jitney will be bright and reflect the light while paired beautifully with grey worktops. Treron and De Nime match closely with our current palette tones like Sea Salt and Boat House Blue, creating a relaxed and modern painted finish paired with the classic shaker style cabinetry.

Despite the temperature taking its time to catch up (anyone else having to reach for their winter coat in the middle of April?), the evenings are finally brighter and days feel drier. Which means if you’ve been debating a house move… there’s no better time than now! Whether you’re upgrading, downsizing, or just relocating, spring is the perfect time for a new season in your life. The weather is usually mild, meaning no stressful moving of boxes in the sweltering sun, and the longer light is the best way to bring out your home’s full potential for buyers.
