Art for Pigeon walls

Pigeon (Farrow & Ball No. 25) is a soft grey-green. Here is what we would aim for on a wall painted in it, and pieces we made for rooms with walls like it.

Matching or standing out

A quiet, neutral wall lets the art bring the colour, so we make an even mix of pieces that match it and pieces that stand out.

Colours that stand out on Pigeon

Terracotta
Dusty rose
Ochre
Deep burgundy

Both black and natural wood work on a mid-tone wall; pick the one that repeats something else in the room.
