What color is Benjamin Moore Feather Down?
Benjamin Moore Feather Down OC-6 is a pale, warm off-white with a gentle beige cast and a subtle creamy softness. Its light value keeps rooms bright, while the muted color prevents it from reading as stark white. In daylight, Feather Down can appear lightly warmed and sandy; under warmer bulbs, its cream-beige undertone becomes more noticeable. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and open-plan walls where a quiet neutral backdrop is needed. Pair it with natural oak, linen upholstery, brushed brass, and deeper brown or charcoal accents for definition.

LRV of Feather Down
Feather Down has an LRV of 73.16% 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 73.16%, 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.
