What color is Benjamin Moore Carlisle Cream?
Benjamin Moore Carlisle Cream 1031 is a light, muted cream with a noticeable beige cast rather than a bright yellow-white look. Its warm, softly sandy character gives walls gentle color while keeping the overall effect pale and understated. In strong daylight, it can read as a quiet off-white; under warm evening lamps, the beige depth becomes more apparent. Carlisle Cream suits living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and kitchens where crisp white would feel too stark. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, woven linen, and soft clay or mushroom-toned accents.

LRV of Carlisle Cream
Carlisle Cream has an LRV of 61.98% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident 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 61.98%, 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.
