What color is Behr Palais White?
Behr Palais White GR-W15 is a very light off-white with a soft creamy cast rather than a stark, blue-white look. Its pale ivory warmth is noticeable in daylight, while lower or warmer lighting can bring out its gentle beige-yellow undertone. The color has enough softness to keep large walls from feeling clinical, yet it remains light enough for ceilings, trim, and open-plan interiors. Use it with natural oak, linen upholstery, woven textures, and muted clay or olive accents for a grounded palette. Palais White can also suit kitchen cabinetry when paired with warmer stone counters or brushed brass hardware.

What are Behr Palais White undertones?
Palais White is a near-white, very muted cream. The HEX sample has a subtle yellow bias, but its low chroma turns that hue into a neutral-looking color rather than a clear yellow. Warm bulbs can make it look creamier or more golden, while cool daylight may mute that warmth and pull it closer to beige or greige.

LRV of Palais White
Palais White has an LRV of 87.13% and refers to White colors that reflect almost all light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 87.13%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
