What color is Benjamin Moore Decorator's White?

Benjamin Moore Decorator's White OC-149 is a very light off-white with a faint cool cast visible in its soft green-gray lean. Its high brightness keeps walls looking clean without reading as stark, especially alongside pure white trim or crisp black details. In bright daylight, this shade can appear almost white, while lower or cooler light may bring out its subtle muted undertone. It suits modern kitchens, gallery-like living rooms, and quiet bedroom walls, and it pairs well with pale oak, brushed nickel, charcoal, and natural stone. Use Decorator's White on broad wall surfaces or cabinetry when a restrained near-white is needed.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 82.68%, 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.
