Farrow & Ball 2.5L Modern Emulsion Middle Ground No.209

Middle Ground – like most other Farrow & Ball colours with 'ground' in the name – was originally created as the foundational colour for the brand's wallpapers. As a wall colour in its own right, it forms the ideal middle ground between the cool and silvery Light Blue and the greener Teresa's Green.
