About Loggia
Loggia (No.232) is a deep, medium-strength red from Farrow & Ball that leans pink. With an LRV of 21, Loggia absorbs more light than it reflects, so it works best in rooms with good natural light or where you want a cozier feel.
In north-facing rooms the cool daylight tones down Loggia's warmth, so it can read a little grayer; south- and west-facing light brings the warmth forward. It's a good fit for dining rooms, accent walls, front doors and libraries. Next to Book Room Red (No.50), it's lighter and warmer.
How Loggia changes with the light
Loggia has a strong warm undertone that balances cool north light well. In strong south or west sun it can look more golden, so check a sample at midday and in the late afternoon.
North-facing rooms
Loggia's warmth balances the cool north light, which is why warmer colors are the safe pick for north rooms.
East-facing rooms
Loggia will look warmer and brighter in the morning and cooler and grayer by afternoon; check a sample at both times.
South-facing rooms
In strong south light Loggia can turn noticeably more yellow or orange; test a sample at midday.
West-facing rooms
Loggia will glow warmer in the late afternoon, so check it at sunset if you want to avoid a strong yellow cast.
