What color is Benjamin Moore Candle White?
Benjamin Moore Candle White 2164-70 is a very light warm off-white with a soft beige cast that keeps it from looking stark or icy. Its pale value gives walls an airy appearance, while the gentle warmth can become more noticeable in afternoon sun or under warm bulbs. In cooler daylight, Candle White may read cleaner and quieter, with its creamy undertone still present. It suits bedrooms, living rooms, and softly layered kitchens, especially alongside natural oak, linen, tan leather, and brushed brass. Pair it with muted clay tones, warm greige, or deeper brown accents for contrast without making the room feel overly sharp.
LRV of Candle White
Candle White has an LRV of 79.14% and refers to Off‑White colors that reflect a lot of 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 79.14%, 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.
