What color is Benjamin Moore Alpine White?
Benjamin Moore Alpine White OC-124 is a very light off-white with a noticeable soft yellow cast that keeps it from reading stark or icy. Its high brightness makes it well suited to broad wall areas, ceilings, and trim where a gentle, light-reflective finish is wanted. In daylight, Alpine White can appear clean and lightly creamy, while warmer artificial lighting may bring out more of its pale buttery undertone. Pair it with natural oak, woven textures, warm stone, or muted green and clay accents to support its warmth.

What are Benjamin Moore Alpine White undertones?

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 Alpine White
Alpine White has an LRV of 87.62% 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 87.62%, 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.
