You can set the ForeColor of ListViewItem like this:

if (!name.StartsWith("unknown"))
{
    ListViewItem lvi = new ListViewItem(work + " " + name + " " + "\n\t");
    lvi.UseItemStyleForSubItems = false;
    if(work != "work 2"))
        lvi.ForeColor = Color.Black;
    else
        lvi.ForeColor = Color.Red;

    listView1.Items.Add(lvi);
}
