The Farrow & Ball Colour by Nature palette introduces a stunning paint collection that takes inspiration from the book library of the Natural History Museum, which includes titles like Werner’s Nomenclature of Colours, which informed Charles Darwin. The Farrow & Ball x Natural History Museum paint collection consists of 16 water-based shades that range from natural reds and greens to brilliant blues.
To balance the natural inspiration, the historical significance and convey how contemporary the colors are, a design was developed for the paint cans that balances botanical illustrations with Dutch Orange, a bright color from the collection that brings the Natural History Museum logo to life.
The newly introduced Colour by Nature collection introduces an extension to the 132 colors from Farrow & Ball.
