Farrow & Ball Green Smoke

Green Smoke No.47 by Farrow & Ball

A deep blue-green by Farrow & Ball, Green Smoke is stunning whether used on the exterior of a home or inside.

I absolutely love the colour green and in particular Green Smoke.

I love it so much that I used this rich paint colour in my basement renovation – not once but twice! I’m sharing some of those photos here on the blog with you today.

Colour Comparisons

As you can see below, it’s when we start to look at comparisons to other colours, that things become very interesting.

Inchyra Blue No.289 & Bancha No.298

When I do Colour Consultations in a client’s home, I am always comparing colours so they too can easily see the differences between the paint colours.

When I hold my large paint boards up to a decorative element such as fabrics, wallpaper or subway tile and then swap out one board with another board, it becomes clear as to which colour will work best.

Fabulous Colour Combinations

Green Smoke with Ball Green, Mouse’s Back & Stiffkey Blue

A beautiful palette bringing lovely colours from nature together. The crossbill wallpaper from A-Street Prints worked so well with these four colours.

I used part of this colour palette in the second space in my basement where we used Green Smoke – our laundry room.

We chose Green Smoke for the cabinetry this time and a dark blue for the walls. The bird and branch wallpaper incorporate the other two nature-inspired colours from the palette.

Flooring can also be a part of how you use the colour palette, as you can see in my laundry room above. It is not intended that all the colours in the palette be painted.
